Every running service keeps a diary of what it's doing, and when something breaks at three in the morning those diaries are where the answer hides. Backwork is the night watchman who reads all of them at once — every venture's record gathered into a single ledger, watched around the clock.
When a service stumbles, the watchman already knows which page to turn to. It is a self-built instrument, kept in-house rather than rented, so the workshop owns the record of its own nights.
