The v2 pivot replaced per-tag SigLIP centroids with learned heads + CCIP.
Centroids were still recomputed (on every tag merge + a daily beat) but NOTHING
read them — suggestions come from heads+CCIP and apply_allowlist_tags applies
via Camie predictions, not centroids. Pure dead wiring; remove it.
Removed: CentroidService, recompute_centroid/recompute_centroids tasks, the
daily beat, POST /api/ml/recompute-centroids, the recompute-on-merge trigger,
the tag_reference_embedding table + model, the centroid_similarity_threshold +
min_reference_images settings (migration 0066), the CentroidRecomputeCard +
its store action + MaintenancePanel tile, and the centroid slider in
MLThresholdSliders. _keep_as_alias drops its vestigial has-centroid branch (the
allowlist branch already covers "could re-emit"); tag merge no longer clears a
table that no longer exists.
NOT touched (still live, parallel to heads): the Camie tagger, ImagePrediction,
and the allowlist bulk-apply — accepting a suggestion still allowlists + applies
it across the library. The tag-eval "centroid" baseline metric is unrelated
(in-memory) and stays. (image_record.centroid_scores JSON column also remains —
separate legacy field, its own micro-cleanup.)
