Title: Scanopy v0.15.2 — Streamlined Discovery Workflow & Better Scan Reliability

Scanopy v0.15.2 is out! This release delivers a smoother discovery workflow and improved reliability for network scans, along with numerous bug fixes and usability enhancements.

New Features

• Reorganized Discovery modal: The scan modal now features clearer tabs and a more intuitive workflow, making it easier to launch scans and review options (#195).
  
• Centralized daemon prompt for first-time setup: The new modal reduces confusion when adding daemons to a fresh organization, improving the onboarding experience (#196).
  

Improvements

• More accurate scan time estimation + Docker probe retry logic, so progress reporting is improved and temporary probe failures are handled gracefully (#194).
• Demo environment loads/resets faster thanks to reduced DB round-trips + bulk deletion (#197).
• Enhanced Docker proxy SSL detection, progress reporting, and credentials retention for smoother Docker-based scans (#198).

Bug Fixes

• Fixed endpoint scanning hang on non-HTTP services (#200).
• Eliminated JetDirect false positives when raw socket port probes are disabled (#201).
• Demo data reset no longer returns 504 errors (#202).
• Cleaned up stray symbol from daemon delete confirmation (#203).
• Closed three Dependabot-reported vulnerabilities (#204).

Subject: Smoother network discovery and scans with Scanopy

We're excited to announce a new Scanopy release focused on making discovery simpler, setup clearer, and scanning more reliable for your lab and network environments.

• Launch scans with less guesswork: A reorganized Discovery modal streamlines options and tabs, so you can kick off scans and configure settings more intuitively.
• Less confusion on first install: A centralized daemon setup prompt keeps new organization rollouts moving and prevents missed setup steps.
• More predictable scans: Improved scan progress estimation and smarter Docker probe retries mean scans are both more accurate and resilient to hiccups.
• Snappier demo environments: Faster demo data management helps you try features and reset labs with minimal downtime during tests.
• Fewer scan interruptions: Fixes for endpoint hangs and Docker proxy handling ensure all endpoints (including non-HTTP) are scanned reliably every time.

These updates aim to give you a more streamlined, error-free topology mapping workflow—whether you're onboarding new sites or exploring your network's full layout.
