Use ansible-runner. The recap will be available among the artifacts  
[https://ansible-runner.readthedocs.io/en/stable/intro.html#runner-artifacts-directory-hierarchy](https://ansible-runner.readthedocs.io/en/stable/intro.html#runner-artifacts-directory-hierarchy)

FWIW, see example of how to get custom status including the recap  
[https://ansible-runner-role.readthedocs.io/en/latest/example3-status.html](https://ansible-runner-role.readthedocs.io/en/latest/example3-status.html)

It should be easy to modify the wrapper to your needs

A custom callback can do it, see the existing email one as example
