AI agents call export_activities_csv to retrieve information from Garmin without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves and exports existing activity data in CSV format. It reads data from Garmin Connect without modifying, creating, or deleting anything. The export is a read operation with no side effects.
