I'm on 10.13.6. The MrC's tool, while great for the local keychain, it didn't work for me for iCloud items. Nor did the script to retrieve passwords from Safari.
moxiefrog at 1Password forums posted a solution based on Automator that worked for me. Essentially, this script mimics a user doing copy-paste from each item to a text file.
Below is moxiefrog's code which I have adapted for my macOS version. You may have to adjust the number of tabs (see keystroke tab below), also taking into consideration what fields you would like to copy. As it is, running the script will produce a text file with the following format:
username,website,password
Steps
- Open TextEdit and create a new document
- Open Keychain
- Click on the iCloud keychain and sort it in the order that will be copied to the text document
- Locate the line
keystroke "password" and insert your password (including the quotes)
- Run it once and check if it copied successfully, otherwise you may have to adjust the
delay's and/or order and number of tabs.
- If everything went fine, increase the
repeat value in the first line. Doing batches of 50 is recommended.
- Save the text file file as
.csv.

Disclaimer
Use at your own risk. If you know how to use AppleScript and Automator, then you might be just dangerous enough to screw things up. Good Luck!
