I'm unaware of any mechanism that will allow you to identify what portions
of the rete node triggered the activation directly as you've described.
Ultimately, they resolve to booleans and having multiple conditions would
further complicate your situation. However, I suspect that there's another
approach to solving the issue at hand. Can you better describe the problem
you're needing to solve that you'd want access to that information within
the consequence?

Is there a way to determine (in the rule consequence) which condition

I am working on a system that allows users to create rules via a custom UI
and when one of their rules fires, I want to be able to create a message
that describes why their rule fired. In a real example, they might have a
list of a few hundred conditions in a composite constraint.
An example rule with just two conditions in a composite constraint follows:
rule "test rule"
when
MyObject( (myfield str[startsWith] "a" || myfield str[startsWith]
"b") )
then
System.out.prinltn(kcontext.getRule().getName() + " fired because myfield
started with ???");
end
Is this exposed somewhere in the variables like kcontext that are available
to each rule in their consequence?
