memanto memory export

Export all agent memories to file.

memanto memory export [OPTIONS]

Options:

--agent TEXT - Specific agent (default: active)
--output PATH - Output file path (a directory when --okf is used)
--limit INTEGER - Maximum memories per type, 1–100 (default: 25)
--okf - Export an OKF bundle (a directory of markdown files) instead of a single memory.md
--split TEXT - OKF layout: auto (default), file, or type (only used with --okf)

Examples: Export to markdown:

memanto memory export

Custom output:

memanto memory export --output backup.md

Specific agent:

memanto memory export --agent customer-support --output customer-support.md

Limit export size:

memanto memory export --limit 100

Export an OKF bundle (see the OKF integration):

memanto memory export --okf

Force one file per memory in the OKF bundle:

memanto memory export --okf --split file

Output: Creates file with all memories:

# Agent: customer-support
Date: 2025-03-30
Total Memories: 42

Notes:

If the backend is unreachable, export now fails loudly (ConnectionError) instead of silently writing an empty cache — a genuine “no memories of this type” still exports fine, but a full outage no longer overwrites a good cache with an empty one.
With --okf, the bundle is written to ~/.memanto/exports/<agent>_okf/ (or the --output directory) and nests memories under memories/ alongside daily-summaries/, sessions/, and metrics/ sections when that data exists locally. To place a bundle inside a project directory, use memanto memory sync --okf. See the OKF integration for the full bundle layout.
