Exporting AI Agent Data: CSV and JSON Reports

Data locked inside a tool is data you can't use. SafeClaw generates detailed records of every AI agent action, decision, and risk signal — and all of it is exportable. Whether you need compliance reports, billing reconciliation, or custom analysis, our CSV and JSON export system puts your data where you need it.

Why Export Matters

Different stakeholders need SafeClaw's data for different reasons:

Compliance teams need audit trails showing that AI agents operated within policy. They need these trails in formats that integrate with existing compliance tooling — usually CSV for spreadsheet analysis or JSON for automated processing. Finance teams need cost data to allocate AI agent spending across projects and departments. They need it in formats compatible with their accounting software. Security teams need incident data for post-mortems and trend analysis. They need it in formats their SIEM systems can ingest. Engineering teams need behavioral data to tune policies and improve agent configurations. They need it in formats their data analysis tools can handle.

Building native integrations for every downstream tool is infeasible. CSV and JSON are the universal interchange formats — everything can consume them.

What You Can Export

SafeClaw provides export endpoints for several data categories:

Sessions — Complete session records including start time, end time, action count, risk score, budget consumed, and escalation count. One row per session. Actions — Individual action records with type, parameters (redacted), timestamp, classification decision, policy rule matched, and risk signals detected. One row per action. Escalations — Escalation records with the escalated action, reason, response (approve/deny), response time, and the responder. One row per escalation. Budget — Budget consumption records with pool name, action reference, estimated cost, actual cost, and running balance. One row per cost event. Risk Signals — Risk signal records with signal category, weight, contributing action, and cumulative session score. One row per detected signal.

Using the CLI

Exports are triggered through the CLI with flexible filtering:

``bash


Export all sessions from the last 7 days as CSV
safeclaw export sessions --format csv --since 7d > sessions.csv

Export denied actions for a specific project as JSON
safeclaw export actions --format json --decision deny \
  --profile production --since 30d > denied-actions.json

Export budget data for the current month
safeclaw export budget --format csv --since month > budget.csv

The --format flag supports csv and json. JSON output can be either an array of objects (--json-style array) or newline-delimited JSON (--json-style ndjson) for streaming ingestion.



Scheduled Exports

For recurring reporting needs, SafeClaw can generate exports on a schedule using the same cron scheduler that powers scheduled agent tasks:

yaml
exports:
  - name: "weekly-compliance"
    schedule: "0 9   1"
    type: sessions
    format: csv
    since: 7d
    destination: "~/reports/compliance/"

  - name: "daily-cost"
    schedule: "0 8   *"
    type: budget
    format: json
    since: 1d
    webhook: "https://accounting.internal/ingest"

Scheduled exports can write to local files or POST to webhook endpoints, making them suitable for automated reporting pipelines.

Data Redaction in Exports

Exports pass through SafeClaw's secrets redaction engine. Any secrets that were redacted during live operation remain redacted in exported data. Additionally, you can configure export-specific redaction rules to remove or mask fields that are sensitive in your context — user identifiers, file paths, or custom fields.

API Access

Everything available through the CLI is also available through SafeClaw's REST API, documented in our docs. The API supports the same filters, formats, and pagination as the CLI, making it straightforward to build custom integrations.

The export system is open source on GitHub. We designed it to be the bridge between SafeClaw's rich safety data and the tools your organization already relies on.
