- Stored optional validation response bodies as boxed strings to avoid allocating empty payloads and to streamline validator caches.
- Parallelized git cloning based on the configured job count and begin scanning repositories as soon as each clone finishes to reduce end-to-end scan times.
- Combined per-repository results into a single aggregate summary after scans complete.
- Added initial access-map support and report viewer html file. Currently beta features.
- Condensed GitError formatting to report the exit status and the first informative lines from stdout/stderr, producing concise git clone failure logs.
- Added support for scanning Google Cloud Storage buckets via --gcs-bucket, including optional prefixes and service-account authentication.
- Added --skip-aws-account (now accepting comma-separated values) and --skip-aws-account-file to bypass live AWS validation for known canary/honey-token account IDs without triggering alerts. Kingfisher now ships with several canary AWS account IDs pre-seeded in the skip list and now reports matching findings as "Not Attempted" with the "Response" containing "(skip list entry)" so its clear that validation was intentionally skipped and why.
