Run the Erigon segment retire command to build, merge, and clean snapshot files. Use this for snapshot publication readiness preparation.
Use the 'erigon seg step-rebase' command to change the step size of an existing datadir. Use when the user wants to rebase segments or modify step sizes.
Run the full Erigon test suite locally using GOGC=80 make test-all. Use this before marking a PR ready for review. Equivalent to the "All tests" CI workflow.
Run Erigon tests with Go race detector to find data races and concurrency bugs. Use this for concurrency-sensitive changes (parallel executor, p2p, txpool). Takes 30-60 minutes.
Run Erigon CI checks locally and/or trigger them remotely on a branch via GitHub Actions workflow_dispatch. Use this when you need to verify a branch passes all CI before or after pushing — especially for branches like bal-devnet-2 that don't auto-trigger on push/PR events.
Implement a new EIP for a hardfork under development in Erigon. Use when the user asks to implement, port, or wire up an EIP — covers spec lookup, dep analysis, prior-work check, implementation, lint, tests, and a wrap-up saved to `agentspecs/`.
Run benchmarkoor performance benchmarks against a locally-built Erigon binary and produce per-test MGas/s comparison tables. Covers image build, dataset reset, run invocation, result parsing, and before/after comparisons.

The erigon seg retire command prepares snapshot files for publication by performing build, merge, and cleanup operations on segment files.
/erigon-build first if the binary doesn't exist./build/bin/erigon seg retire --datadir=<path>
Replace <path> with the actual path to your Erigon data directory.
The retire command performs these operations in sequence:
This command is part of the "Publishable v2" snapshot release flow:
seg retire (this command)seg clearIndexingseg indexpublishable command# Build the binary first (if needed)
make erigon
# Ensure Erigon is stopped, then run seg retire
./build/bin/erigon seg retire --datadir=/data/erigon
