Generated from bd help --doc export. Export all issues to JSONL (newline-delimited JSON) format. Each line is a complete JSON object representing one issue, including its labels, dependencies, and comments. This command is for issue export, migration, and interoperability. It exports records from the issues table; it is not a full database backup and does not capture Dolt branches, commit history, working-set state, or non-issue tables. For supported full backup/restore flows, use ‘bd backup init’, ‘bd backup sync’, and ‘bd backup restore’. By default, exports only regular issues (excluding infrastructure beads like agents, roles, and messages). Use —all to include everything. Memories (from ‘bd remember’) are excluded by default because they may contain sensitive agent context. Use —include-memories or —all to include them. EXAMPLES: bd export # Export issues to stdout bd export -o issues.jsonl # Export issues to file bd export —include-memories # Export issues + memories bd export —all -o full.jsonl # Include infra + templates + gates + memories bd export —scrub -o clean.jsonl # Exclude test/pollution records
