• .md — human-readable Markdown with timestamps, model names, and full transcript.
• .json — machine-parseable JSON for import into Obsidian, Notion, or your own scripts.

Metadata File

metadata/export-manifest.json tracks:

• Provider and download date
• Conversation count per thread
• Original message IDs for cross-referencing
