Operations

Use these pages to run coordinated write workflows and to inspect, recover, clean up, archive, or restore Firecube products.

Operations commands work against a product URI:

PRODUCT_URI="file:///data/products/MY_PRODUCT.zarr"

For S3 products, use the full S3 URI:

PRODUCT_URI="s3://bucket/products/MY_PRODUCT.zarr"

Preflight

Check the CLI surface before running destructive commands:

firecube chunks list --help
firecube archive create --help

For storage-deleting operations on local products, make sure the storage config points at the product root:

export FIRECUBE_STORAGE_TYPE=local
export FIRECUBE_STORAGE_DRIVER=fsspec
export FIRECUBE_TARGET_PATH=/data/products

For S3 products, configure the S3 storage settings and credentials described in Configuration Reference.

Safety Rules

  • Run dry-run commands first when available.
  • Use --yes-i-really-mean-it only after the dry-run output matches what you intend to change.
  • Use --force only for the specific commands where it is documented. It is an operational bypass, not a confirmation flag.
  • Keep .firecube/ with the product unless you are intentionally discarding Firecube run history and cleanup state.
