MG 2.1 Manually update category count?

I need to update once the category IDs for albums and media based on another table linking to media IDs which is data outside of the standard XF structure. I can update the category IDs fine for both the xf_mg_album and xf_mg_media_item tables ok and they're all correctly appearing in the relevant category for both albums and media. The problem is the category image count in xf_mg_category isn't updating. I assumed it might update from a cron job but none of them seem to affect that metric.

Is this value updated upon media add/remove only, never calculated from a cron? If so, that's fine I can update the value based on the media counts, just wanted to confirm I'm not doing anything wrong here, missing something in the category relationship for MG.
