chantools triggerforceclose

Connect to a CLN peer and send a custom message to trigger a force close of the specified channel

Synopsis

Certain versions of CLN didn't properly react to error messages sent by peers and therefore didn't follow the DLP protocol to recover channel funds using SCB. This command can be used to trigger a force close with those earlier versions of CLN (this command will not work for lnd peers or CLN peers of a different version).
