    post:
      description: 'Return a native-resolution Sentinel-2 window over a bounding box as a FIELD, not a set of points: the pixels become one content-addressed grid artifact (deterministic f32 encoding; fetch the bytes at the returned artifact url, Cache-Control immutable), and what the receipt attests is the DERIVATION, never a byte pipe. A persisted derivation record pins the chosen scene (id, asset, capture time, cloud cover), the recipe (band_raster@1), the grid georeferencing in the scene''s UTM CRS, and best-effort per-cell anchors that bridge the artifact to existing signed facts; the receipt''s FIELD preimage segment binds (aoi_cid, derivation_cid), reported by /v1/verify_receipt as field_bound. Bounds are refusals with the cap named: six raw S2 bands (B02/B03/B04/B08/B11/B12) and 512 px per side at native resolution (about 5.1 km at 10 m). Anchors never materialize a fact, so a cold AOI costs one scene read, nothing more. The artifact is evictable BY DESIGN: the record persists like any fact and pins everything needed to rebuild identical bytes, so eviction turns a dereference into a recompute, never a broken citation. Returns two tokens: emem:raster: (resolve with emem_raster_resolve) and the record''s own emem:fact: handle. This signs and persists the derivation record. TERRAIN: pass band `copdem30m.elevation` (or `elevation` / `dem`) for a static Copernicus GLO-30 elevation field via the dem_raster@1 path, no scene selection, no cloud, EPSG:4326 grid; a bbox crossing a 1-degree DEM tile edge is refused (single-tile only) and open ocean has no tile. EMBEDDING (WB-5): pass an encoder band (geotessera etc.) for a MULTI-CHANNEL embedding field via embedding_raster@1, a signed N-D vector per cell (geotessera = 128-D) packed into one artifact, so a client-side per-cell embedding fan-out becomes one citeable token; every filled cell is anchored to its real signed encoder fact; grid capped at 256 cells at the 0.1-degree native step.


        When to use: Call when an agent needs an area''s actual field of values rather than per-cell scalars: change analysis over a scene window, input to a model that reads grids, exporting verifiable pixels a third party can re-derive, or a terrain/elevation field (band copdem30m.elevation). For one cell''s value use emem_recall; for an RGB visual use emem_cell_scene_rgb, which is a view, not a signed artifact; for areas beyond the 512 px cap, page the bbox.'
