verdictan history

The verdictan history command group works with captured gateway sessions. You can list, read, export, tag, search, share, replay, learn from, and summarize sessions. Each command in this group must use API authentication.

List sessions

verdictan history list-sessions
verdictan history list-sessions --scope org --limit 25
verdictan history list-sessions --agent-id agent_main --tag reviewed --json

Available filters include --scope, --team-id, --agent-id, --tag, --since, and --until. --since and --until accept RFC3339 timestamps and apply to the session page that the API returns. The CLI then applies --limit to that filtered page.

Get one session

verdictan history get-session --session-id 7f92ff69-7b29-4f2d-a8bb-766c06e61d3c
verdictan history get-session --session-id 7f92ff69-7b29-4f2d-a8bb-766c06e61d3c --include-entries
verdictan history get-session --session-id 7f92ff69-7b29-4f2d-a8bb-766c06e61d3c --include-entries --json

--include-entries makes a second entries request. If that request fails, the CLI reports a warning and returns the session without an entries array.

Export

SESSION_ID="7f92ff69-7b29-4f2d-a8bb-766c06e61d3c"

verdictan history export "$SESSION_ID"
verdictan history export "$SESSION_ID" --format markdown --output ./exports/session.md
verdictan history export "$SESSION_ID" --format json --output ./exports/session.json
verdictan history export "$SESSION_ID" --format txt --output ./exports/session.txt

The CLI exports one session in markdown, json, or txt. The default is markdown. You must have history:read access to the session.

The CLI requests entries in stable 500-entry pages and writes them in API sequence. The command exits nonzero if a page has an error or a duplicate entry. It also fails if the page does not use request_index sequence or ends before the reported entry_count. After a failure, the CLI does not create the requested output file.

History export capabilities are different for each surface:

SurfaceSelectionFormatsActive bound
Console History listNo download action
verdictan history exportOne sessionmarkdown, json, txtPages through the complete authorized session
GET /v1/history/sessions/{id}/exportOne sessionmarkdown, json, csvFirst 1,000 entries
POST /v1/history/sessions/exportAt most 50 session IDsjsonl, csvFirst 1,000 entries for each session

The API-native exports return the artifact synchronously. They do not create an Evidence Export job. No History export surface supports PDF.

Tag

verdictan history tag 7f92ff69-7b29-4f2d-a8bb-766c06e61d3c --tag important
verdictan history tag 7f92ff69-7b29-4f2d-a8bb-766c06e61d3c --tag reviewed --json
verdictan history tag 7f92ff69-7b29-4f2d-a8bb-766c06e61d3c --remove draft
verdictan history tag 7f92ff69-7b29-4f2d-a8bb-766c06e61d3c

Without --tag and --remove, the command lists the assigned tags.

verdictan history search --query "deployment error"
verdictan history search --query "API timeout" --entry-kind assistant
verdictan history search --query "budget" --agent-id bcb8904e-d692-42bd-a176-bc5d408405b4 --limit 20
verdictan history search --query "compliance" --json

You must specify --query. The CLI uses the history search endpoint first. If that endpoint returns HTTP 503, the CLI prints a warning. It then does a bounded client search through session and entry pages. This limited substring search can give different results from the server search service.

Share

verdictan history share --with alice@example.com 7f92ff69-7b29-4f2d-a8bb-766c06e61d3c
verdictan history share --with 0e959678-8740-482b-890e-05aa61884664 7f92ff69-7b29-4f2d-a8bb-766c06e61d3c --json

The share command shares a session with a specified user or email address. It does not generate an expiring public link.

Replay

verdictan history replay 7f92ff69-7b29-4f2d-a8bb-766c06e61d3c
verdictan history replay 7f92ff69-7b29-4f2d-a8bb-766c06e61d3c --gateway-id gateway_prod_01

Replay sends one session again. Use --gateway-id to select a specified gateway as an alternative to the initial gateway.

warning

Do not use replay as a dry run. The CLI submits each replayable user request to the history replay endpoint. A replay can invoke a provider and cause usage or cost. Only entries with an object request_payload, a messages array, and a last user message qualify for replay.

Stats

verdictan history stats
verdictan history stats --scope team --team-id a67d04a3-68d9-43df-8987-cf0828503756
verdictan history stats --agent-id bcb8904e-d692-42bd-a176-bc5d408405b4 --json

The CLI first uses the aggregate stats endpoint. If that request fails, the CLI calculates a local summary from one sessions page. It also uses this local summary for a non-success status or a decode error. This summary is a page snapshot, not a complete aggregate.

Learn from history

verdictan history learn --bind-to-session 7f92ff69-7b29-4f2d-a8bb-766c06e61d3c
verdictan history learn --scope team --team-id a67d04a3-68d9-43df-8987-cf0828503756 --agent-id bcb8904e-d692-42bd-a176-bc5d408405b4
verdictan history learn --bind-to-session 7f92ff69-7b29-4f2d-a8bb-766c06e61d3c --dry-run --json

Without --bind-to-session, the CLI selects the most recent session matching the optional scope, team, and agent filters. The default strategy is condense, with up to four previous sessions and a 1,200-token target. Adjust those values with --strategy, --previous-sessions-max, and --target-max-tokens.

--dry-run fetches and previews the selected session's source entries without posting the /learn request. An invocation without --dry-run requests server-side history learning.

Condense

verdictan history condense --session-id 7f92ff69-7b29-4f2d-a8bb-766c06e61d3c
verdictan history condense --session-id 7f92ff69-7b29-4f2d-a8bb-766c06e61d3c --output history-condensed.json
verdictan history condense --scope org --allowed-only --dry-run

The CLI makes condensed output locally and deterministically. condense and hybrid use the same extraction path as extract. None of the three strategies calls an LLM. Use --include-blocked to include blocked entries. Use --allowed-only to keep only allowed entries.

The CLI can continue when it cannot fetch some source entries. It prints a warning in this condition. Review the warnings before you use condensed output, because the result can be incomplete.
