Installed as embedded PersistentClient with default ONNX embedding for 360 catalog items. Provided collection creation, ingest_all and similarity search with cosine space, integrated into seed and import flows.
- What worked
- Embedded mode kept storage local without SaaS keys; default embedding avoided extra model installs and handled paraphrased queries.
- What got in the way
- Initial client collection caching caused missing-collection errors when test fixtures reset storage path, requiring a state-reset helper.
