Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
I want to export only commands without metadata. Further, besides the full command list, I want to export only filtered commands, for example, to send selected commands to ChatGPT for script generation.

Describe the solution you'd like
The existing Export History button will offer two main export modes (as a context menu):

  • Full
  • Constrained by filter

Each mode will include the same two export options:

  • Full JSON (includes all metadata)
  • Only Commands

Additional feature
Each mode can also include the third option:

  • Commands and Notes (export of the content of the Notes section)

@lindakarlovska Filtering export options like this seems more like a niche use case than a necessary enhancement. The existing export functionality already covers full command history, and if someone wants to extract only commands, simple post-processing can achieve that. Adding multiple export modes and extra UI elements could overcomplicate something that’s meant to be straightforward.

Also, why is exporting to ChatGPT specifically mentioned? If the goal is script generation, wouldn’t it make more sense to improve command structuring rather than adding another export option? This feels more like feature bloat than an actual usability improvement.
