2026-09-18 Histo embedding artifact API search

Searched fetched Histo refs for a packaged persistent embedding artifact or serialization API.

Work Done

  • Inspected all 159 fetched origin/* refs and recent commits in /Users/felix.knispel/work/histo.
  • Located the September shared embedding extractor commits and compared their API with histo-v0.0.127.
  • Confirmed that histo-v0.0.127 packages the in-memory FeatureGrid, extract_embeddings, and high-level Gleason extraction/decode wrapper.
  • Confirmed that no fetched branch adds a stable path-backed embedding artifact, FeatureGrid serialization, or package-level save/load API. Persistence search hits belong to experiments and scripts.

Lessons Learned: Pitfalls

  • Method names such as predict_wsi_embeddings suggest that embeddings are returned, but the method immediately decodes the grids and returns segmentation arrays.
  • Broad commit-subject searches miss the distinction between in-memory extraction and persistent artifact support; source-level searches across every remote tip were necessary.

Lessons Learned: Improvements

  • A short Histo API inventory that distinguishes package APIs from experiment-only persistence would make future integration checks faster.
  • Document that FeatureGrid is an in-memory dataclass with no serialization contract as of histo-v0.0.127.
