Summary
The local docs endpoint describes a City Explorer Vision API available during development. It is not the authoritative MMS ephemeris source, but it can support optional visual inspection, image analysis, and local chat tooling.
Key Facts
- Raw OpenAPI JSON is exposed at `http://localhost:8765/api/openapi.json`.
- The API advertises image analysis, SAM preview, OpenCV probes, local chat completions, Image2World, and scene capture routes.
- The recommended image analysis default is `run_mode=sam`, `profiles=["litert-gpu"]`, and `layers=["sam-fused"]`.
- The text chat endpoint is `POST /v1/chat/completions` with model `gemma4-e2b-it-litert-gpu`.
Applied in the Build
The static MMS visualization does not call this API at runtime because the exhibit must run without a server or scripting environment. The API is documented as auxiliary local tooling, not as data provenance.
