The paper looks at tooling aspects of transforming C# programs into symbolic transducers with branching rules (BSTs).  The latter are used for describing list comprehensions that incorporate loop-carried state. One concrete application is log analysis where input streams of data are transformed into output streams of data via intermediate pipelines of transducers. The paper presents algorithms for translating C# to BSTs, and for exposing control state in BSTs.
