The firebricks in a stove reflect heat back into the fire which allows for a hotter, cleaner burn but these are wear items and will need replacement from time to time.
Example 1
If a brick is well supported on three edges then it can remain in place.
Example 2
As a general rule a single hairline crack is not a problem.
Example 3
Replace if it looks like it could fall into the fire.
Example 4
Replace if you can see the stove wall behind.
