# stackkit break-glass

> Manage break-glass recovery accounts and bundles

Manage break-glass recovery accounts and bundles.

Manage per-node break-glass recovery accounts and the encrypted bundles that hold their credentials.

Bundles are written by 'stackkit apply' (Phase 1) into /var/lib/stackkit/recovery/. They are encrypted with the recovery passphrase you set during init.

```text theme={null}
To recover a node, decrypt the bundle:
    age -d -o break-glass.txt break-glass-<node>.age
```

Then follow the RESTORE INSTRUCTIONS section inside the decrypted YAML.

```bash theme={null}
stackkit break-glass [flags]
```

| Flag    | Type   | Default | Description                                                         |
| ------- | ------ | ------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `--dir` | string | —       | Override the bundle directory (default: /var/lib/stackkit/recovery) |

Subcommands: [`stackkit break-glass list`](#stackkit-break-glass-list), [`stackkit break-glass show-bundle`](#stackkit-break-glass-show-bundle)
