import CLIINSTALL from "versionContent/_partials/_devops-cli-install.mdx";

To manage development forks:

<Procedure>

<CLIINSTALL />

1. **Fork the $SERVICE_SHORT**

```shell
tiger service fork tgrservice --now --no-wait --name bob
```
By default a fork matches the resource of the parent $SERVICE_LONGs. For paid plans specify `--cpu` and/or `--memory` for dedicated resources.

You see something like:

```terminaloutput
🍴 Forking service 'tgrservice' to create 'bob' at current state...
✅ Fork request accepted!
📋 New Service ID: <service_id>
🔐 Password saved to system keyring for automatic authentication
🎯 Set service '<service_id>' as default service.
⏳ Service is being forked. Use 'tiger service list' to check status.
┌───────────────────┬──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
│ PROPERTY │ VALUE │
├───────────────────┼──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┤
│ Service ID │ <service_id> │
│ Name │ bob │
│ Status │ │
│ Type │ TIMESCALEDB │
│ Region │ eu-central-1 │
│ CPU │ 0.5 cores (500m) │
│ Memory │ 2 GB │
│ Direct Endpoint │ <service-id>.<project-id>.tsdb.cloud.timescale.com:<port> │
│ Created │ 2025-10-08 13:58:07 UTC │
│ Connection String │ postgresql://tsdbadmin@<service-id>.<project-id>.tsdb.cloud.timescale.com:<port>/tsdb?sslmode=require │
└───────────────────┴──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘
```

1. **When you are done, delete your forked $SERVICE_SHORT**

1. Use the CLI to request $SERVICE_SHORT delete:

```shell
tiger service delete <service_id>
```
1. Validate the $SERVICE_SHORT delete:

```terminaloutput
Are you sure you want to delete service '<service_id>'? This operation cannot be undone.
Type the service ID '<service_id>' to confirm:
<service_id>
```
You see something like:
```terminaloutput
🗑️ Delete request accepted for service '<service_id>'.
✅ Service '<service_id>' has been successfully deleted.
```
