The Harmonic Salsa CLI provides a complete suite of command-line tools for interacting with the Harmonic Salsa blockchain. These tools enable developers and validators to manage accounts, deploy programs, query cluster state, and perform stake operations.

​
Available Tools

​
solana

The primary CLI tool for interacting with Harmonic Salsa clusters. Provides commands for:
  • Account management and balance queries
  • Transaction submission and monitoring
  • Cluster information and statistics
  • Stake account operations
  • Program deployment and management
  • Validator operations

​
solana-keygen

Keypair and wallet management utility for:
  • Generating new keypairs
  • Recovering keypairs from seed phrases
  • Verifying keypair signatures
  • Grinding vanity addresses
  • Displaying public keys

​
Common Use Cases

​
Development Workflow

  1. Generate a keypair for development
  2. Request airdrop on devnet/testnet
  3. Deploy programs to the cluster
  4. Submit transactions and monitor status
  5. Query accounts and program state

​
Validator Operations

  1. Create stake accounts with SOL
  2. Delegate stake to validators
  3. Monitor validator performance
  4. Manage stake lifecycle
  5. Deactivate and withdraw stake

​
Program Management

  1. Build programs with cargo-build-sbf
  2. Deploy programs to mainnet/testnet
  3. Upgrade existing programs
  4. Manage program authorities
  5. Close programs and recover SOL

​
Configuration

The CLI tools use a configuration file (default: ~/.config/solana/cli/config.yml) to store:
  • RPC URL: Cluster endpoint
  • WebSocket URL: For real-time updates
  • Keypair path: Default signing keypair
  • Commitment level: Transaction confirmation level
Set configuration with: 
solana config set --url <RPC_URL>
solana config set --keypair <PATH>

​
Global Options

Most commands support these global options:
  • --url <URL> - RPC endpoint to use
  • --keypair <PATH> - Keypair for signing
  • --commitment <LEVEL> - Confirmation level (processed, confirmed, finalized)
  • --verbose - Display additional information
  • --output <FORMAT> - Output format (json, json-compact)
