python -m prefect.engine <flow_run_id>This run has already terminatedk

This is not possible because the flow already ended. You can’t rerun a finished flow like that, but there are thoughts to expose something like that eventually

What are you trying to do? The flow failed so you want to inspect it at some point?

06/22/2022, 7:01 PMi would like to add a pdb breakpoint to the flow code and run it from the cli so I can debug

06/22/2022, 7:55 PMor what would be the best way to troubleshoot a flow that fails before outputting any logs? I can see the agent picking up the run but then the only thing I see is
prefect.flow_runner.docker - Flow run container 'spiffy-husky' has status 'exited'Paco Ibañez

A couple things you can try to get more insight:
1.
prefect deployment execute <flow-name>/<deployment-name>PREFECT_DEBUG_MODE=1docker logs <container>p
