Hygiene follow-up to the Camie retirement (#1189) — these were left inert to
bound that change; nothing reads them now. Migration 0068 drops:
- ml_settings: tagger_store_floor, tagger_model_version, suggestion_threshold_
character/general (already dead pre-retirement — scoring uses per-head
thresholds), video_min_tag_frames (only the deleted video-prediction
aggregator used it).
- image_record: tagger_model_version (no writer), centroid_scores (dead JSON
cache, no reader).
Also: ml_admin _EDITABLE/GET/_validate pruned (dropped the store-floor invariant
+ video_min_tag_frames check); MLThresholdSliders trimmed to a video-embedding
card (interval + max frames only); importer no longer resets the dropped cols;
download_models drops the Camie fetch; stale CASCADE comments in cleanup_service
no longer name the removed tables. Tests updated.

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.)

Goal (operator 2026-06-18): the overview of a Settings tab fits one unscrolled
viewport; expanding a tile to read into it is the only reason to scroll.
- Every Maintenance card converted to the collapsible MaintenanceTile (collapsed
by default = icon + short title + one-line blurb). Task cards (ML backfill,
centroids, thumbnails, archive re-extract, missing-file repair, DB maintenance)
sit in a responsive grid; running tasks auto-expand. Tagging config (suggestion
thresholds, allowlist, aliases) grouped in one Tagging section as collapsible
tiles; Backup is its own collapsible tile.
- Three labeled sections mirror the Cleanup tab: Backfills and reprocessing /
Tagging / Storage.
- Center the whole Settings surface: SettingsView is now a centered, width-capped
(1140px) column so the tab strip and every panel sit in a tidy centered measure
(was full-width). CleanupView drops its own left-aligned max-width to fill it.
All card logic unchanged - only the chrome.

Video tag noise root cause: frames were a FIXED count (6) max-pooled — a tag
firing on one frame survived at peak confidence, and a fixed count under-samples
long multi-scene videos so real scene-local tags looked like noise.
Redesign (operator-steered):
- Sample at a fixed CADENCE — one frame every `video_frame_interval_seconds`
(default 4) across the 5–95% window — so a tag's frame-presence reflects real
screen time independent of video length. Capped at `video_max_frames` (default
64): a long video stretches the spacing instead of exploding into hundreds of
inferences, bounding per-video cost on the single ml-worker (per-frame ffmpeg
timeout also cut 60s→30s).
- Aggregate with `_aggregate_video_predictions`: keep a tag only if it appears in
>= `video_min_tag_frames` sampled frames (≈ that many × interval seconds on
screen — duration-independent noise rejection), with confidence = MEAN over the
frames it appears in (not max). Clamps the threshold to the sample count so a
1–2-frame short video still tags.
- All three knobs are DB-backed ml_settings (migration 0053), patchable via
/api/ml/settings + sliders in the ML settings card — replaces the
VIDEO_ML_FRAMES env var (product-not-project).
Tests: aggregation drops one-frame noise + means corroborated tags + clamps on
short videos; settings round-trip + min>max validation. Replaced the
_maxpool_predictions unit test.
NOTE: this is the QUALITY half of #747. The perf half — the ml-worker runs
CPU-only — is GPU enablement, tracked separately in #872.

Promotes the prediction store-floor from the TAGGER_STORE_FLOOR env (default
0.05) to a DB-backed, Settings-UI-tunable ml_settings column (default 0.70).
Storing every tag down to 0.05 from a ~10k-tag tagger is what grew
image_record's TOAST to ~100 GB; the suggestion path already filters at 0.70
and the centroid/learned path covers lower-confidence preferred tags, so the
sub-0.70 tail is redundant. Foundation for plan-task #764 (backfill + reclaim
land next; this only changes the write gate for NEW imports).
- ml_settings.tagger_store_floor (migration 0044, default 0.70)
- tagger.Tagger.infer(store_floor=...); ml task passes settings.tagger_store_floor
- ML admin GET/PATCH expose it; PATCH rejects a category suggestion threshold
below the floor (nothing below the floor is stored, so the gap surfaces
nothing) — server backstop for the UI slider clamp
- Settings → ML: store-floor slider + caption; category sliders min-bound to it

Four coupled operator-asked changes to the view modal (Scribe plan #509):
1. **Autofocus tag entry on modal open** — TagAutocomplete grabs focus
in onMounted/nextTick so the caret is in the input the moment the
modal renders. No click needed to start typing.
2. **General suggestions expanded by default** — SuggestionsPanel's
general-category group now mounts with `:default-open="true"`.
Operator can collapse if too noisy, but the v1 frame shows them.
3. **Lower general threshold default 0.95 → 0.50** — MLSettings.
suggestion_threshold_general default matches character. Alembic
0029 also bumps the existing singleton row's value if it's still
at the old 0.95. Operator can re-tune from Settings → ML.
4. **Retire `copyright` + `artist` as ML suggestion categories** —
neither feeds a Tag.kind (`artist` retired in FC-2d-vii-c, never
really existed as a copyright tag-kind). They were surfaced in the
suggestions pipeline + threshold settings UI but had no follow-
through. Drop from SURFACED_CATEGORIES, suggestions._threshold_for,
ml_admin GET/PATCH allowlist, MLSettings columns (alembic 0029
drops the two columns), frontend CATEGORY_ORDER + CATEGORY_LABELS,
SuggestionsPanel.peopleCats, AliasPickerDialog kind-check, and
MLThresholdSliders rows.
Out of scope (intentional): `tag_kind` Postgres enum still includes
`artist` for historic Tag row queryability (per the model comment);
no operator pain reported, no enum-shrink needed.
Tests:
- test_surfaced_categories asserts {character, general}, excludes
artist + copyright.
- test_threshold_for_artist_is_unsurfaced extended to cover copyright.
- test_get_and_patch_settings asserts new 0.50 default and the absent
artist + copyright keys in the GET payload.
MaintenancePanel hosts: backfill + centroid recompute trigger cards,
the five suggestion-threshold sliders (autosave on slider release),
the allowlist table (inline editable min_confidence, delete), and the
alias table (mapping display, delete). Wired as a third Settings tab,
ML settings loaded lazily when the tab opens.
