Your AI agent's data is yours: how Export everything works

Key points

• An AI agent that works for you builds up chats, memory, documents, receipts, email and files on its own computer. On nox.cool, Export everything gives you all of it as one zip.
• Chats come out as readable text, receipts as a spreadsheet, settings as JSON, and files in their original formats. You don't need nox.cool to open any of it.
• The zip is made while you download it and never stored on our servers. Every field that may leave was picked one by one, so passwords, cards, keys and sign-ins can't slip in.
• Only you can start an export, from the app, with a link that works once for ten minutes. No agent can make one or send one anywhere.
• In our tests, 149 chats and 208 files (134 MB) downloaded in 13 seconds.

#What does an AI agent know about you?

An assistant that only answers questions forgets you when you close the tab. An agent that does real work doesn't. Nox, the agent at the heart of nox.cool, books, buys, researches, writes and keeps going after you close the app. Over weeks it builds up a picture of your life and your work:

• Conversations. Every task, every question it asked you, every OK you gave.
• Memory. "Vegetarian." "Sam's birthday is 3 March." "Prefers aisle seats." Notes it keeps so you never have to repeat yourself.
• Files. The reports, spreadsheets and decks it made, and the downloads it fetched, on its own computer in the cloud.
• Records. Receipts for everything that needed your OK, the email it sent and received, the plans it made with your friends.

That's valuable, and it's yours. Laws like the GDPR call this the right to data portability: you should be able to get your data in a structured, commonly used, machine-readable format. We think an AI agent should go further than the law asks. You shouldn't have to email a support address and wait thirty days. It should be one button.

#What is Export everything?

Export everything is one button in nox.cool's Settings that downloads everything you and your agents made as a single zip file. That's every chat, memory note, document, receipt, email, page, project and setting, plus each agent's computer files if you want them. It streams straight to your device while it's being made, and it never includes passwords, cards, keys or app sign-ins.

Here's how to use it:

1. Open Settings and scroll to Your data.
2. Decide whether to include each agent's computer files. It's on by default; switch it off for a smaller, faster zip.
3. Press Export. The download starts at once.

While it runs, the line under the button tells you what's being packed (chats, memory, documents, then each agent's computer) with a running count of files and size. When it's finished, it tells you so.

#What's in the zip?

Everything comes out in formats you can open without nox.cool: text you can read, spreadsheets, JSON for programs, and your files exactly as they were.

We spent the most care on the chats, because they're what people actually reread. Each one is a plain conversation: who said what and when, every time an agent asked for your OK and what you said, every question and answer, and the steps it took in between:

Booked. Lantern Kitchen, Friday at 8, table for two.

The README opens the zip with a plain list of what's inside, how many of each, and, just as important, what isn't there and why.

#Why is the export streamed instead of stored?

Most "download your data" features make a file on their servers, email you a link, and keep the file around until you fetch it. We don't.

The zip is put together while your browser downloads it. The first chats are already arriving before the last files have been read, and nothing is ever written to our disks. Your documents are encrypted while nox.cool holds them; a finished, unencrypted zip sitting on a server would quietly undo that. Streaming also means there's no link sitting in an inbox for someone else to forward or find.

It's fast, too. In our tests a busy test account with 149 chats and 208 files (134 MB) downloaded in 13 seconds.

An export is something you do — never something an agent does for you.

#How do you keep secrets out of an export?

An agent like Nox handles sensitive things: the logins it uses for you, the cards it pays with, the keys for the apps you connect. None of that belongs in a zip that might end up in a downloads folder or a cloud drive.

So the export doesn't take "everything except secrets". It takes only the fields we chose, one by one. For every kind of record, there's a short list of exactly what may leave: a routine's title and instruction, say, or an app's name and status. Anything not on the list stays behind. And a test fails if anyone ever adds a field that looks like a secret to one of those lists, so a new feature can't leak by accident.

• Logins & cards appear by name only, so you can see what you'd saved, never the password, the card number or the code.
• Connected apps appear by name and status. An app's address keeps only where it is; anything after it, where keys sometimes hide, is dropped.
• Browser cookies and the sites each agent is signed in to live apart from its files, so they never come along.
• Hidden files on an agent's computer (settings and caches whose names start with a dot) are left out, along with folders tools rebuild on their own.

#Who can start an export?

Only you, and only from the app.

When you press Export, the app asks nox.cool for a download link that's good once, for ten minutes, and only for your account. Another website can't trigger one, a forwarded link doesn't work for anyone else, and one export runs at a time.

Agents can't start one at all. That's deliberate. Agents read web pages and emails written by strangers, and some of that writing is designed to trick them. If an agent could bundle up your data, a cleverly worded page could ask it to. So ours can't. Ask Nox to "zip up everything" and it points you to the button instead.

#What about the files on each agent's computer?

Every agent on nox.cool has its own computer in the cloud, sealed off from the others, where it browses, downloads and makes things. When you include computer files, the export goes through each agent's computer folder by folder. If one is asleep, it's woken first, one computer at a time.

There are sensible limits: up to 5 GB and 20,000 files from each computer, and 2 GB for any single file. If anything is over, the README lists it, and you can download it on its own from Files.

Files itself got better along the way. An agent's computer goes to sleep when it isn't working, and Files used to look empty while it slept, as if everything had gone. Now it says the computer is asleep, and offers to wake it.

#Can I take one folder instead of everything?

Yes. Open Files, go into the folder you want, and press the folder button beside Refresh. You get that folder, or the whole workspace, as a zip, up to 2 GB and 10,000 files. The same rules apply: hidden files stay behind, and nothing outside the agent's own files can be reached.

#And a quieter live talk

One smaller change shipped alongside. When you talk with Nox live, the screen used to fill with captions of everything said. It now shows only Nox's face, about twice as big (up to 460 pixels), with the status and the call buttons. A call should feel like a conversation, not a transcript. Screen readers still hear every line.

#Your data, your call

Export everything is available today to everyone in nox.cool's early access, in Settings › Your data. Take a copy whenever you like: before a trip, at the end of a project, or just to see what your agents know. It's yours.

#Questions and answers

Does nox.cool keep a copy of my export?

No. The zip is put together while your browser downloads it and goes straight to your device. Nothing is written to our servers along the way, and nothing waits behind a link.

What format are my chats in?

Each chat is a readable text file in Markdown: who said what and when, every OK you gave, every question and answer, and the steps the agent took in between. A separate file has every chat's full event log as JSON, for programs.

Is the zip encrypted?

The download travels over an encrypted connection, but the zip itself isn't password-protected, so it can be opened with any zip tool. Keep it somewhere safe: it holds your conversations and files.

How long does an export take?

It depends on how much there is. In our tests a busy test account with 149 chats and 208 files, 134 MB in all, downloaded in 13 seconds. Waking an agent's computer that's asleep can add a minute.

What happens if my download stops halfway?

Start it again from Settings › Your data. The work stops when the download does, and each export link works only once, so an unfinished zip is never left lying around.

Can I use my export somewhere else?

Yes. Everything is in standard formats (Markdown, CSV, JSON and your files as they were), so any tool can read it, with no nox.cool account needed.
