# Terminal Discussion Export

Export a terminal discussion from TriClaude runtime logs into Drive.

## Output Location

Default root:
`/home/yousuf/GoogleDrive/PROJECTS/.triclaude/exports/terminal-discussions`

Each export is saved under a project subfolder:
`<root>/<project-name-slug>/discussion_YYYYMMDD_HHMMSS_<terminal-suffix>.md`

A rolling latest file is also updated:
`<root>/<project-name-slug>/latest_<terminal-suffix>.md`

## Workflow

1. Determine terminal id.

Preferred:
```bash
echo "$TC_TERMINAL_ID"
```

Fallback:
```bash
python3 - <<'PY'
import json
p='/home/yousuf/GoogleDrive/PROJECTS/.triclaude/projects.json'
d=json.load(open(p))
for proj in d.get('projects', []):
  for t in proj.get('terminals', []):
    print(f"{proj.get('name')} | {t.get('id')}")
PY
```

2. Run export script.

```bash
python3 /home/yousuf/local_workspaces/skills/terminal-discussion-export/scripts/export_terminal_discussion.py \
  --terminal-id "$TC_TERMINAL_ID" \
  --lines 1800 \
  --a2ui on
```

3. Return the generated file path to the user.

The script prints JSON including `exportFile`, `latestFile`, and `a2uiUpdated`.

## Common Variants

Export a different number of lines:
```bash
python3 /home/yousuf/local_workspaces/skills/terminal-discussion-export/scripts/export_terminal_discussion.py \
  --terminal-id term_XXXXXXXXXXXX \
  --lines 3000
```

Add a short user-provided note at the top of export:
```bash
python3 /home/yousuf/local_workspaces/skills/terminal-discussion-export/scripts/export_terminal_discussion.py \
  --terminal-id "$TC_TERMINAL_ID" \
  --note "Focus: GH work account validation and Codex checks"
```

Override output root when explicitly requested:
```bash
python3 /home/yousuf/local_workspaces/skills/terminal-discussion-export/scripts/export_terminal_discussion.py \
  --terminal-id "$TC_TERMINAL_ID" \
  --output-root /custom/path
```

Disable Visual-tab update only when explicitly requested:
```bash
python3 /home/yousuf/local_workspaces/skills/terminal-discussion-export/scripts/export_terminal_discussion.py \
  --terminal-id "$TC_TERMINAL_ID" \
  --a2ui off
```

## Visual Tab Completion

- Default behavior writes an A2UI status card to the terminal `a2ui_input.log`.
- Supports both personal and work runtimes by auto-detecting `.triclaude` or `.workclaude`.
- Use `--a2ui on` to require Visual-tab update success.

## Rules

- Export from `stream.log` only; do not fabricate transcript text.
- Keep raw order of lines.
- Strip ANSI/control escape noise before saving.
- Confirm success by returning the exact output file path.
- Confirm Visual-tab status via `a2uiUpdated: true` when `--a2ui on` is used.
