Verb reference

All eleven verbs, what each does, and an example of each.

Eleven verbs. Everything else is a filter or a flag.

Verb	Does
`find`	Select a working set. Usually the start of a chain.
`export`	Metadata out to CSV, XLSX or your own template.
`download`	Files and drawings out as a package.
`compare`	BOM-to-BOM or revision-to-revision differences.
`create`	New parts, records or projects in batch.
`set`	Update field values across a selection.
`checkout` / `checkin`	Lock and release for editing.
`link`	Relate parts to suppliers, documents or projects.
`report`	Generate a formatted report.
`backup`	Snapshot to storage you control.
`sync`	Push to or pull from connected systems.

Worked examples

find part where lifecycle = 'released' and supplier.price is null

Every released part nobody has priced. This is usually the whole explanation when a rolled cost looks too low.

export part where project = 'HALO6' --template 'erp-daily'

Runs a saved column template rather than re-picking columns each time.

download file where part.number like 'BLD%' and file.type = 'pdf'

Every drawing for a part family, as one archive.

create part 848484 "Housing, lower" 4948484 "Seal, shaft, 12mm"

Several parts in one action, each as a draft.

Flag	Effect
`--dry-run`	Stop at the preview permanently. Never executes.
`--atomic`	If any row fails, the whole batch rolls back rather than half-applying.
`--format`	For exports and reports: xlsx, csv or pdf.
`--template`	Use a saved column template.
`--level`	For BOM operations: `top` or `all`.
`--destination`	Where output is written.
