A collection of CLI tools have been provided to help with diagnostics and other administrative tasks. These use the same configuration infrastructure as the daemons.
Tool scripts are located in the @file{cic_eth.runnable} package. If @var{cic-eth} is installed as a python package, they are installed as executables in @var{PATH}.
@subsection info (cic-eth-info)
Returns self-explanatory metadata for the blockchain network, and optionally an address.
@subsection inspect (cic-eth-inspect)
Returns information about a specific resource related to the tranasaction queue. The results returned depend on the type of the argument.
If the argument is a 0x-prefixed hex string of 42 characters, it returns all transactions where the specified address is a sender or recipient@footnote{If the address is the gas gifter or the accounts index writer, this may be a @emph{lot} of transactions. Use with care!}
@item <tx_hash>
If the argument is a 0x-prefixed hex string of 66 characters, it returns data from the custodial queueing system aswell as the network for a single transaction whose hash matches the input. Fails if the transaction does not exist in the queue
@item <code>
If the argument is a 0x-prefixed hex string longer than 66 bytes, the argument will be interpreted as raw RLP serialized transaction data, and attempt to match this with an entry in the queue. If a match is found, the result is the same as for @var{<tx_hash>}
@end table
@subsection create (cic-eth-create)
Create a new account, optionally registering the account in the accounts registry, and optionally receiving the newly created address through a redis subscription.
@subsection transfer (cic-eth-transfer)
Execute a token transfer on behalf of a custodial account.
Set or reset lock bits, globally or per account address.
@subsection resend (cic-eth-resend)
Resend a transaction. This can either be done "in-place," which means increasing the gas price and re-queueing@footnote{this is the same thing that the retrier does}. It can also be used to @emph{clone} a transaction, which obviously will duplicate the effect of the cloned transaction on the blockchain network.
