# `chock witness`

Ask the user before running chock witness: what it takes and prints, from the engine at the pinned commit.

Export one client's redacted decision log for its agentseam evidence issue (witness export --client C)

> Ask the user before running any command on this page: each one changes how their agent or repository behaves.

## Syntax

This is the usage line argparse builds from this command's parser. Ask the user before running the commands below:

```text
chock witness [-h] {export} ...
```

## Arguments and options

This command takes no arguments besides `-h, --help`.

## Subcommands

| Subcommand | Summary |
| --- | --- |
| [`chock witness export`](https://chock.sh/docs/cli/witness/export/index.md) | Write one client's redacted log records to a local file; never uploads |

## Exit codes

- 2: argparse rejected the arguments, for example an option this command does not have. The site's tests run every command with an unknown option and check that it exits 2.
- Chock documents no other exit codes, and this page has no recorded run.

## Help as printed

This is what `--help` prints, from the same parser. The usage line names the program as the engine's parser does. Ask the user before running the commands below:

```text
usage: chock witness [-h] {export} ...
```

The full options are on this page's HTML version, as the engine prints them.
