File Services Overview (Group 13)

The live object-storage surface. These commands are admin-key protected and limited to object put/get/remove operations.

Overview

Group 13 is not a general-purpose filesystem API in the active reference set. The live audited surface is deliberately smaller: 134 put_object, 135 get_object, and 136 rm_object. Treat these as object operations, not as folder-management commands.

Access control

Group 13 is admin-key protected. Frontend and tooling integrations should assume privileged credentials are required.

Path safety

The live implementation resolves and normalizes paths before access. Treat Group 13 paths as a controlled object namespace, not an arbitrary filesystem escape hatch.

Scope boundary

The documentation intentionally does not revive historical folder, ACL, or version-management commands because they are not part of the current live Group 13 surface.

Universal preamble (48 bytes)

Modern File Service requests (put_object, get_object) often use a 48-byte authenticated preamble when the command family is integrated into the V2 authenticated flow. This structure identifies the coin being used for the operation and provides replay protection.
