## [Unreleased]

### Added

- **Discover names hosts from mDNS when reverse DNS cannot.** Consumer routers
do not serve PTR records for their own DHCP clients, and appliances ignore
LLMNR and NetBIOS, so reverse lookup returned nothing for exactly the devices
someone opened the app to identify. Those devices announce their names over
mDNS constantly, and netscli has shipped an mDNS browser all along as a
separate operation that discover never consulted. It does now, filling only
the blanks, so nothing that resolves today changes. On one ordinary /24 that
named 3 more of 26 hosts, taking 21 named to 24. Results carry a
`hostname_source` of `reverse` or `mdns`, since a name from a device's own
announcement is a different kind of claim from one in DNS.
- **The desktop app says the MCP server exists.** Someone who only ever opens
the app had no way to learn that netscli ships an MCP server, let alone
connect an agent to one. There is now a panel that looks for a netscli binary
and gives you the client configuration to paste, including what to do when it
cannot find one — the desktop installers do not carry the CLI.

### Fixed

- **The docs site lost its navigation and its theme switch between 800px and

substitute: it lists the pages of the docs and carries five of those six
links nowhere.

The search button had a second fault behind it: the width at which the links
hide moved from 900px to 1152px, and two rules that depended on that number
stayed where they were.
The layout seam ended up on a hidden element, which takes no part in the
layout, so search fell back to the left with up to 861px of empty bar beside
it. The theme control was hidden on the understanding that the mobile menu
carried it from there down, but the button that opens that menu only appears
below 800px, so for 352px of width there was nothing to press. A new check
measures where the header's controls actually sit at seventeen widths, since
neither fault was visible to the existing accessibility, contrast or

Neither fault was visible to the existing accessibility, contrast or

colour or speed.

- **`netscli-gui-bin` on the AUR installed a desktop app that could not

`--gpu-compositing` flags, which are remembered across launches. Linux only:
the other two platforms use a web engine with neither the fault nor the
setting. Also reported in #378.
- **Text in the desktop app's result tables can be selected again.** Both the
table and its wrapper set `user-select: none`, so a port, MAC address,
vendor string or banner could not be dragged over with the mouse — and those
values are on screen precisely so they can go somewhere else. The only route
out was the detail pane. Selecting rows is a click, not a drag, so nothing
was gained by it. Reported in #417.
- **The website's release notes lost their paragraph breaks, and the fade over
a long entry read navy rather than matching the page.** Both on the changelog
page.

### Changed

- **The website and docs got another pass.** The install section's two
controls line up and its alternatives stopped shouting; the hero badge shows
the released version; the interfaces are shown rather than described; the
README says only what a README can and its TUI screenshots work again; the
comparison with nmap and the other scanners is fairer in both directions.
Docs pages carry structured data, and the docs shell picked up a Lighthouse
gate and two fixes it found.

### Security

- **Three open advisories cleared.** `rustls` 0.23.40 → 0.23.45
(RUSTSEC-2026-0285, medium), which was in 0.3.1's lockfile and so is in the
binaries that release produced. The other two are the website's build
dependencies rather than anything in a release artifact: `adm-zip` ≤0.6.0
(GHSA-vwc7-r8mq-g2x9 and GHSA-7q85-xj36-vmfc, high) and `devalue` <5.9.1
(GHSA-9rgm-9g3h-6x36, moderate).
