## chainctl libraries cache

Manage the Libraries resolution cache.

### Synopsis

Manage your organization's Libraries resolution cache. Once your org is
served a package version from a tier (Chainguard-built or upstream), that
resolution is recorded and held stable so lockfile hashes keep verifying.
Zapping retires recorded resolutions so the next fetch re-resolves to the
current best tier; clients that hold lockfiles must regenerate them to pick
up new hashes.
