Can you please provide some steps to reproduce the error?

						await ipfs.files.rm(file_path).catch(e => null);

						await ipfs.files.cp(`/ipfs/${file_cid}`, file_path, {
							parents: true,
						});

file_path is not defined?

Can you share a stack trace?

import { searchIpfs } from '../lib/ipfs/use';
import { ipfsAddresses } from 'ipfs-util-lib';
import console from 'debug-color2/logger';

searchIpfs()
.then(async ({ ipfs, stop }) => {

	const dir_path = `/1/2/3`;
	const file_path = `${dir_path}/file.txt`;
	const file_cid = `QmWGpaUBePXU3jyCXtY4hmtmawYSep8QnnBoziiqdzbGVH`;

	await ipfs.version().then(console.info);

	let dir_stat = await ipfs.files.stat(dir_path).catch(e => null);
	let file_stat = await ipfs.files.stat(file_path).catch(e => null);

	console.dir({
		dir_stat,
		file_stat,
	});

//	await ipfs.files.mkdir(dir_path, {
//		parents: true,
//	}).catch(e => null);
	await ipfs.files.rm(file_path).catch(e => null);

	await ipfs.files.cp(`/ipfs/${file_cid}`, file_path, {
		parents: true,
	});

	return stop()
})

The error is coming from go-ipfs and I don’t think it’s cp command supports the parents option, you’ll need to mkdir first.
