Description

Updates the Sensei "Fixing Findings" guide to match the new gap-closing fix flow.

Previously, clicking Fix on a finding whose Asset had no linked repository dead-ended at a "Configure Asset" hand-off. It now walks the user through whatever Sensei still needs to open a pull request:

  • Link a repository inline, from a source-control connection you already have, or by pasting a repository URL and an access token. The link is remembered for later fixes on the same Asset.
  • Choose the repository when an Asset is linked to more than one.
  • Point Sensei at the file when a finding has no usable path (paste a file permalink or type a repository-relative path).

It also documents fix-only repositories (a repository linked at fix time is available for fixes but does not scan until scanning is enabled) and the Enable scanning row action, and updates the intro to note that fixing needs Writer while linking a new repository needs the Maintainer/Owner role.

Screenshots for each step are committed under docs/content/sensei/images/ and referenced from the page. They use seeded demo data only.

Scope

Documentation only, one page (docs/content/sensei/fixing_findings.md) plus five images. Documents the DefectDojo Pro "generic fix flow" feature; same release line.

…e fix flow

The Sensei "Fix" flow no longer dead-ends when a finding's Asset has no linked
repository. Update the fixing-findings guide to match: clicking Fix now walks the
user through linking a repository inline (from a connection or by pasting a repo
URL and token), choosing among several linked repositories, and pointing Sensei at
the file when a finding has no usable path. Also documents fix-only repositories
(linked for fixes, scanning off until enabled) and the Enable-scanning row action.

A cloud posture finding whose account has no infrastructure-as-code repository now
prompts to link one inline (same Link a Repository dialog as code findings; the
cloud account is auto-detected from the finding). Add a Cloud findings subsection
to the fixing-findings guide.
