There is no *stable* API to obtain details about the LHS from the rule
in a knowledge base. Validator does access LHS patterns and
constraints for analysis, but this is rather tricky unless your rules
are very simple.
You can obtain the rule name from the activation. It's probably easier
to associate rule names with rule texts, even though such a lookup
isn't in the API.
