# Changelog

## 0.2.1

- Compact colored terminal report and phase-labelled progress bar by default;
  `--verbose`, `--format full` and `--progress plain` retain detailed diagnostics.
- Native pre-login SMB2 compression-capability negotiation replaces the
  login-dependent SMBGhost heuristic. No compressed transforms or exploits.
- Respect ignored/reserved SMB fields and compression-algorithm intersection;
  retain strict bounds, response identity, context and absolute-timeout checks.
- Recognize Zerologon's explicit probabilistic negative; distinguish rejected
  SMB authentication and denied PrintNightmare RPC binding from CVE verdicts.
- Preserve contradictory attempts, but suppress unqualified confirmed/clean
  claims and use low-confidence conflict findings. Label optional signing
  accurately; distinguish pending work, interruption and missing collectors.
- Detect RPC-dump protocol errors even on exit zero. Empty output cannot count
  as successful enumeration. Preserve partial inventory and failure diagnostics.
- Stop queued RPC-dump copies after recognized local startup failures, without
  suppressing independent remote failures or other selected checks.
- Save per-invocation timings and bounded error excerpts; retain complete,
  uncolored evidence reports. Modernize wheel license metadata.

Validation uses synthetic protocol frames, mocked external tools and local
subprocess tests. No live target benchmark or patched/unpatched lab validation
has been performed. A summary showing RPC-dump exit code 1 still requires its
raw log to identify the actual root cause.
