It's solving itself.

The C++ snippet includes permutations for the Fridrich method's first two layers (F2L), which wouldn't be required for a reverse-replay.

It does need to know it's starting configuration though ! So it starts from a solved cube and needs to record the steps to compute the starting unsolved configuration.
