+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------+
|                                                                             |
|  [!]️ CRITICAL: ROLLBACK = FULL STACK REVERT                                |

|  Because UCCX requires CUCM CTI connectivity, rollback means:              |
|  1. Revert agents from WxCC to Webex Calling only (no CC)                 |
|  2. Re-enable CUCM (if still available during hypercare)                  |
|  3. Re-enable UCCX                                                         |
|  4. Re-register phones to CUCM                                             |
|                                                                             |
