How do I save a texture from a opdef: /Object path to my local filesystem?
I am able to add opdef: /Object/simplefemale?color.flattened.1001.jpg to a Grid object using uvflatten by using a shader that uses that image mapped to it.
But how do I save that texture jpg to a file on my local file system?

It's possible to extract the internal file's contents using HOM and write it out to wherever you'd like. There are two different ways to access the files:
Query the asset definition for the “section” (everything inside an asset is stored in named thing called a section) and just get the contents and write it back out
The hou.readFile() function can also understand opdef: references so you can do that as well.

>>> s = hou.node('/obj/simplefemale1').type().definition().sections()["color.flattened.1001.jpg"] >>> with open("/tmp/color.flattened.1001.jpg", "w") as fp: ... fp.write(s.contents())
The hou.readFile() function can also understand opdef: references so you can do that as well.
>>> with open("/tmp/color.flattened.1001.jpg", "w") as fp: ... fp.write(hou.readFile("opdef:/Object/simplefemale?color.flattened.1001.jpg"))
