Export rules as markdown

Coding agents, design tools and agent platforms read rules from markdown files: AGENTS.md, DESIGN.md, Figma Guidelines, skills. Export puts a rule set’s rules into those files, each in the owner’s words with who said it, when it applies and what the agent should do. The file is an advisory copy: Claros still checks every action against the live map, so a rule changed in Claros applies at once, and the export catches up the next time you run it.

Formats

`format`	File	Shape
`agents` (default)	`AGENTS.md`	One section, `## <map> — rules from <owners>`, rules in map order
`design`	`DESIGN.md`	The same rules grouped by response, softest first: nudges, then ask, then stop
`skill`	`SKILL.md`	An Agent Skill: YAML front matter (`name`, `description`), then the rules

Each rule lists:

the rule, and the owner’s words (or the written policy’s) it came from
when it applies: the kinds of action and record, the map’s apps, the step
the condition, in plain words, for a precise rule; “a judgement call” for one Claros judges
the response: stop, ask (with who to ask) or nudge (go ahead, mention it)

Rules their owner hasn’t confirmed yet are marked (not yet confirmed). The only ids in the file are the map’s id and version, next to the export date.

Example

## Release notes — rules from Priya Raman, Tom Okafor

> These rules are enforced by Claros when an agent acts; this file is an advisory copy. Work Map `wf_release_notes`, version 3, exported 2026-10-23. Change the rules in Claros, not here.

- **Notes over 400 words need review**
  - In Tom Okafor's words: “Anything over 400 words goes to me before it's posted.”
  - Applies when an agent sends anything in Docs or Slack
  - Condition: Word count > 400
  - Response: ask — stop and check with Tom Okafor first; go ahead only with their answer

Export

npx getclaros export wf_release_notes >> AGENTS.md
npx getclaros export wf_release_notes --format design > DESIGN.md
mkdir -p .claude/skills/release-notes && npx getclaros export wf_release_notes --format skill > .claude/skills/release-notes/SKILL.md

curl -H "Authorization: Bearer $CLAROS_AGENT_KEY" \
  "$CLAROS_URL/v1/maps/wf_release_notes/export?format=agents"

The CLI uses the key npx getclaros saved (or --key / CLAROS_KEY). Exit codes: 0 printed, 1 no such map, 2 not signed in or bad usage, 3 Claros unreachable or key rejected. GET /v1/maps/{workflow_id}/export?format=agents|design|skill takes an agent or capture key, returns text/markdown with a Content-Disposition file name, 404 for a map not in your workspace and 422 for another format. On the map page, Export offers the same three files as downloads.
