octo-drive — network drive operations

45 commands over one backend. Everything is scoped to a drive space: either your personal space or a shared one you are a member of.

1. Credentials — nothing drive-specific

Drive uses the same credential as every other domain. Set one of:

export OCTO_TOKEN=<uk_… | bf_… | app_…>      # preferred slot, any token kind
export OCTO_BOT_TOKEN=<bf_… | app_…>         # long-standing variable, still fine

OCTO_TOKEN wins when both are set, so you can run one command as a real person without disturbing a bot setup:

OCTO_TOKEN=$UK_KEY octo-cli drive space list

A stored profile (octo-cli auth login) takes precedence over both. Do not create a drive-only profile — there is no such concept.

The token kind decides which identity the backend sees, and the CLI routes the request accordingly:

Any other credential fails locally with TOKEN_KIND_NOT_ALLOWED (exit 2) — switch credentials, don't retry.

A bot has no implicit access: to touch a shared space it must be added as a member, exactly like a person. If a bot gets permission_denied, add it with drive member add. An app_… token may also lack a resolvable space entirely; that surfaces as a 401 (exit 3) from the server, and the fix is a bf_… or uk_… credential.

Drive never sends X-Space-Id — the tenant comes from the verified identity.

2. Ids — copy them, never compute with them

File ids are uint64 and are emitted as JSON strings on purpose. Values above 2^53 would be silently rounded by a JavaScript-style parser, addressing a different file. So: pass them through verbatim (-q '.data.id' | tr -d '"'), never do arithmetic on them, never reformat them. The CLI rejects a non-decimal or out-of-range id locally.

Why | tr -d '"' on every capture below. --jq/-q prints a JSON value, and ids are JSON strings — so -q '.data.id' emits "123" including the quotes, and a quoted id is rejected by the next command's id validation. There is no raw-output flag; -q is the only output filter the CLI defines. Strip the quotes in the shell. (Numbers already come out bare, so this matters for string-valued fields: every id, share_url, and every opaque token.)

Two traps worth naming:

• space_id (the drive space) and doc_space_id (the document's own Octo Space) are different scopes. Building a document link from space_id produces a link to the wrong place. The CLI fails closed rather than substituting.
• doc unmount takes the mount node id (.data.id), not the doc_id.

3. The five workflows

Space → folder → upload → share → download

SPACE=$(octo-cli drive space create --name "Project files" -q '.data.id' | tr -d '"')
FOLDER=$(octo-cli drive folder create --space-id "$SPACE" --parent-id 0 --name Contracts -q '.data.id' | tr -d '"')
FILE=$(octo-cli drive upload file ./contract.pdf --space-id "$SPACE" --parent-id "$FOLDER" -q '.data.id' | tr -d '"')

SHARE_URL=$(octo-cli drive share create "$FILE" -q '.data.share_url' | tr -d '"')
# Hand SHARE_URL to the receiver verbatim. They never extract a token:
octo-cli drive share access   "$SHARE_URL"
octo-cli drive share download "$SHARE_URL" -o ./contract.pdf

# A space member can also download by internal id:
octo-cli drive download file "$FILE" -o ./copy.pdf

Personal space → mount a document → share its link

SPACE=$(octo-cli drive space ensure-personal -q '.data.id' | tr -d '"')
DOC=$(octo-cli drive doc candidates --space-id "$SPACE" -q '.data.items[0].doc_id' | tr -d '"')
MOUNT=$(octo-cli drive doc mount --space-id "$SPACE" --doc-id "$DOC" -q '.data.id' | tr -d '"')
DOC_URL=$(octo-cli drive share create "$MOUNT" -q '.data.share_url' | tr -d '"')

octo-cli drive share access "$DOC_URL"      # resolves the target; grants nothing
# `share download` on a document link fails with NOT_DOWNLOADABLE — by design.

doc mount takes no --doc-title: the title and the document's real Octo Space are read server-side from the document metadata, so they cannot drift.

Invite a member

SPACE=$(octo-cli drive space create --name "Collab" -q '.data.id' | tr -d '"')
INVITE_ID=$(octo-cli drive invite create "$SPACE" --role editor -q '.data.invite_id' | tr -d '"')
TOKEN=$(octo-cli drive invite list "$SPACE" -q '.data.invites[0].invite_token' | tr -d '"')

octo-cli drive invite accept "$TOKEN"          # as the invitee's credential
octo-cli drive invite revoke "$SPACE" "$INVITE_ID"

invite_id / invite_token are base64url and may start with -; prefer --invite-id / --invite-token in scripts so a leading dash is never parsed as a flag.

Roles accepted by invite create: preview_only, downloader, uploader_downloader, editor, admin (admin only if you are the space's super_admin). custom and super_admin are rejected on invites. Or add a known uid directly:

octo-cli drive member add "$SPACE" --uid "$UID" --role editor

member add / member set-role accept one more role than invites do — custom, the lowest rank (below preview_only). super_admin is never grantable: it is bound to the space creator at space creation.

Drive has no user search — get a uid from the message/group commands or your own context.

IM attachment → drive

MSG=$(octo-cli message search files --chat-id "$GROUP" -q '.data.items[0].message_id' | tr -d '"')
FILE=$(octo-cli drive im-transfer create \
  --im-group-no "$GROUP" --im-channel-type 2 --im-msg-id "$MSG" \
  --target-space-id "$SPACE" -q '.data.id' | tr -d '"')

--im-channel-type is required: 1=DM, 2=group, 5=thread, and it must be the kind the message actually came from. It picks the upstream message-read route (1 uses the DM route; 2 and 5 share the group route, where group vs sub-thread comes from the composite group_no), and it is stored as the first segment of the row's source_key (channelType#channelID#msgID), which the chat file-card's already-transferred lookup matches on — a wrong value makes that lookup miss. Anything outside 1|2|5 is rejected locally (ENUM_NOT_ALLOWED, exit 2).

Transfer idempotency is keyed on (target space, type=blob, object path), not on the channel type: a replay of the same message returns the existing row with idempotent: true, and a wrong channel type cannot produce a duplicate file. Keep the message id a string.

Browse and act

octo-cli drive browse --space-id "$SPACE" --parent-id 0
octo-cli drive browse --space-id "$SPACE" --type blob --source user-upload

FILE=$(octo-cli drive browse --space-id "$SPACE" -q '.data.entries[0].id' | tr -d '"')
octo-cli drive file get    "$FILE"                       # type → blob | doc | folder
octo-cli drive file move   "$FILE" --parent-id "$FOLDER"
octo-cli drive file rename "$FILE" --name new-name.pdf
octo-cli drive file copy   "$FILE" --parent-id "$FOLDER"

file get is how you branch: type tells you whether an id is a blob, a mounted document, or a folder.

browse returns the complete listing; its page object is an envelope, not a database page, so --page-index / --page-size do not actually narrow the result yet.

Full-text search

drive search is full-text search across every space the caller can see (name + blob/doc body via OpenSearch), scoped by the caller's own membership — a bot only sees spaces it was added to. --page-index here IS a real page (0-based).

octo-cli drive search --q "报销单"                              # all visible spaces
octo-cli drive search --q "预算" --scope space --space-id "$SPACE"
octo-cli drive search --q "合同" --data '{"filters":{"type":"blob","owner_scope":"me"}}'

Advanced --filters (pass via --data): type (folder|doc|blob), owner_scope (me|others), updated_after (RFC3339), size_min/size_max (bytes). Each hit carries file_id, path (breadcrumb), type, highlights.{name,body} with <mark> fragments, and owner_uid/updater_uid (resolve display names via the message/group commands — search returns uids, not names). Requires the server's search backend to be configured; otherwise the call returns unavailable (503).

4. Upload and download in detail

drive upload file runs prepare → PUT to object storage → confirm. The PUT goes out on a separate HTTP client that carries no Octo credential — the presigned URL is its own authorisation. If anything fails after the pending row exists, the CLI cancels it and the error reports the file_id plus the cancel outcome:

{"ok":false,"error":{"code":"UPLOAD_FAILED","detail":{"file_id":"42","pending_file":"cancelled"}}}

If pending_file is not cancelled, run octo-cli drive upload cancel <file-id> yourself.

drive download file and drive share download write to a randomly-named partial file next to the destination, fsync, then rename — an interrupted transfer never leaves a truncated file, and a pre-created symlink at a guessable path cannot redirect the write. An existing destination is refused unless you pass --overwrite. The result carries a sha256 you can verify.

The low-level steps stay available (upload prepare|confirm|cancel, download url) if you need to drive the transfer yourself.

drive blob create is a different thing and is rarely what you want: it registers an object already in storage rather than uploading one. The backend verifies it — an --object-path storage does not hold is invalid_argument, and a --size that conflicts with the stored object is rejected (--size 0 for a non-empty object included) — so it can no longer produce a row that lists fine and 404s on download. If storage is unreachable the probe is inconclusive and you get a 500 to retry, not invalid_argument. It still persists no download URL, so share download on such a row answers not_found. Use drive upload file unless the bytes are already in the bucket.

5. Share links

There is exactly one thing the two sides exchange: data.share_url.

octo-cli drive share create "$FILE" --permission download --expires-in-seconds 86400 --password-file ./pw

• The password is passed out of band — it is never in the URL, and it is masked in --verbose / --dry-run output.
• Prefer --password-file <path> (or --password-file - for stdin) over --password. A value on argv is readable from ps and /proc and lands in shell history for the process lifetime, the same reason auth login takes its token from --token-file / stdin and never from the command line. --password still works for interactive use. One trailing newline is stripped from the file; nothing else is, so a password may begin or end with a space.
• --permission is held to the spec's view | download enum locally: anything else is ENUM_NOT_ALLOWED / exit 2 with no request sent.
• Both sides need a credential. There is no anonymous share. The token (and password) authorise the share; your credential authenticates you. The receiver does not have to be a member of the file's space.
• share access / share download accept only links on your configured Octo origin — same scheme, host and port — in exactly the /drive/s/<token> or /d/<docId>?sp=<docSpaceId> shape. Anything else fails with INVALID_SHARE_URL — the CLI parses the link, it never fetches the host in it. Pass the link exactly as share create produced it; a scheme-downgraded copy of an otherwise correct link is refused.
• downloadable tells you which command to use next. Documents are always false, and so is a blob shared with --permission view — share download on either answers permission_denied. Only --permission download yields bytes.
• Revoke with the share_id, not the token: octo-cli drive share revoke "$SHARE_ID". The share_id is itself treated as a secret — the backend returns one opaque id that is both the management handle and the access token — so --verbose, --dry-run and error output show it as ***REDACTED***. That is the mask, not a wrong id: the real value still goes on the wire. Read it from share create / share list output, which is not masked.
• base64url ids can start with - (about one in 64), which cobra reads as a flag. Pass those as a flag instead — octo-cli drive share revoke --share-id "$SHARE_ID" — or put the value after a -- separator. The same applies to --invite-id (invite revoke) and --invite-token (invite accept). Using the flag form unconditionally is the safe habit for a script.

6. Errors

7. Destructive commands

space delete, member remove, folder delete, blob delete, doc unmount, share revoke, invite revoke are all high-risk writes with no confirmation prompt (agent runtimes cannot prompt). Deletes are soft on the backend, but folder delete takes the whole subtree with it.

Preview any write first:

octo-cli drive folder delete "$FOLDER" --dry-run

--dry-run on upload file, download file, share create and share download describes the plan and stops: no pending row is created, no URL is fetched, nothing is written to disk.
