# CLI_DATA_PLANE_ERROR_CODE_MISSING

- Surface: CLI
- Exit code: 4

## Cause

`splitch flags verify` got `reason: "ERROR"` from the data plane with no error code attached, so there is nothing to attribute the failure to.

## Fix

Correct the reported data-plane failure and retry. An unattributable ERROR is reported under its own code rather than being folded into a generic one, because the missing code is itself the defect worth reporting.
