Leave with your data

A portable bundle is a folder (or zip) with the exact files of the versions you choose, their descriptions and checksums. Reading it needs only the Python SDK: no server, no account and no network. See Portable exit for the format and the SDK calls.

Each person exports what they can read from their own computer with the SDK (ophiolite export ... --output <folder>), not on the server. ophiolite-ops export-project is a project move to another deployment, not a bundle.

The qualification does exactly this: it exports a bundle from a running deployment with an environment that contains only the SDK, stops the deployment, and then reads the bundle and calculates from it in a container that has no network at all.

A backup is not an exit: it is for restoring Ophiolite. A bundle is for using your data elsewhere.
