Ink-map release covers 21 public PHerc. 0800 and 1447 segments

A community release reports reader-v2 and Hecate ink maps for all twenty-one public PHerc. 0800 and PHerc. 1447 segments, with forward and reverse outputs, registered OME-Zarr data and VC3D overlays. Its announcement says the maps pass the repository's compatibility checker and provides a manifest with download hashes. The same release reports a lower-memory surface-model runner and a faster inference setting on one RTX 4090 test. These are author-reported checks and benchmarks, not independent measurements. The post explicitly discloses AI-agent involvement and makes no reading claim. Code is described as MIT-licensed, while the maps retain the data's noncommercial license.
