Tessera fetches a source image, applies the transform encoded in the URL and returns the result. Nothing is stored: the edge cache holds the output, the origin holds nothing.

Health is reported at /api/health. Source images are fetched with a 10 s timeout and a 20 MB ceiling; anything larger is rejected with 413. Responses carry immutable cache headers keyed on the full parameter set.
