net-mesh-cli

net-mesh — the unified command-line interface for the NET mesh.

The non-interactive counterpart to net-deck: a one-shot tool for operator scripts, CI pipelines, daemon authoring, and ad-hoc cluster inspection. Same SDK underneath, same signed admin chain, no TUI.

net-mesh

Install

# pip
pip install net-mesh-cli

# uv
uv tool install net-mesh-cli

The wheel bundles the Rust net-mesh binary directly (built with maturin's bindings = "bin" mode) — pip install / uv tool install puts it on your $PATH with no compilation step and no Python shim layer.

Wheels are published for linux (glibc + musl, x86_64 + aarch64), macOS (x86_64 + aarch64), and Windows (x86_64 + aarch64). A source distribution is also published for any platform pip can't find a wheel for — that path needs a Rust toolchain.

Run

net-mesh --help

Subcommand surface

Subcommand	What it does
`version`	SDK version + build metadata.
`identity`	Generate / inspect / fingerprint operator identity files.
`admin`	Signed admin-chain commits — drain, cordon, maintenance, drop-replicas, etc.
`ice`	Break-glass ICE — simulate then commit force-drain / evict / restart / cutover.
`snapshot`	One-shot `MeshOsSnapshot` reads (and `--watch` for streaming).
`audit`	Read-only queries against the RedEX-committed audit ledger.
`log tail`	Substrate log stream (`--follow`, `--daemon`, `--level`).
`failures tail`	Substrate failure stream — same shape as `log tail`.
`cap`	Capability advertisement + discovery.
`peer`	Peer + NAT-traversal helpers.
`daemon`	Per-daemon listing from the local snapshot.
`netdb`	NetDB local KV adapter — Cortex-backed tasks + memories.
`subnet`	Hierarchical subnet inspection (`show`, `ls`, `tree`).
`gateway`	`SubnetGateway` stats + export-table operator surface.
`channel`	`ChannelConfigRegistry` inspection (`visibility`, `ls`).
`aggregator`	`AggregatorDaemon` inspection + remote query.
`completion`	Emit a shell-completion script (`bash` / `zsh` / `fish` / `powershell`).
`man`	Emit the troff(1) man page on stdout.

Global flags

Applied to every subcommand; environment-variable fallbacks in brackets:

--config <path> [NET_MESH_CONFIG] — profile file (default $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/net-mesh/config.toml).
--profile <name> [NET_MESH_PROFILE] — named profile within the config file.
--output (json|yaml|ndjson|table|text) — auto-detects table/text on TTY and json/ndjson off-TTY.
--quiet / -q — suppress stderr diagnostics.
--verbose / -v — -v info, -vv debug, -vvv trace. NET_MESH_LOG= env-filter overrides.
--no-color [NO_COLOR] — disable ANSI in table / text output.
--timeout <dur> — global per-call timeout (e.g. 500ms, 1h30m). Default 30s.

Config + identity

The profile file is optional — every flag has a sensible default. When present, it lives at $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/net-mesh/config.toml (or the platform equivalent) and looks like:

[default]
identity        = "~/.config/net-mesh/identity.toml"
endpoint        = "in-process"
default_timeout_ms = 30000

[profiles.prod]
identity   = "~/.config/net-mesh/ops-identity.toml"
node_addr  = "10.0.0.4:7700"
node_pubkey = "abcd…"      # 64 hex
psk_hex     = "1234…"      # 64 hex

Operator identity files are authored by net-mesh identity generate — ed25519 seed + public key + SHA-256 fingerprint, the same format the deck loads from the maintenance node. Every signed admin / ice command picks the identity up from the active profile (or --identity).

Exit codes

Typed via ExitCodeKind. Scripts can match on the discriminator:

0 — success
2 — usage / parse error
3 — config / identity load failure
4 — substrate refused the action (auth, ICE threshold, etc.)
5 — timeout
6 — transport error
