Research direction

Start by tracing the default address-scanning flow and the root option used to verify change addresses. Confirm how the current 500-address scan selects receiving addresses, then define completion as automatically checking change addresses without requiring the root option; no source files or tests are named in the issue.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

Hey while scanning by default it scans for 500 address, it only scans receiving address.

While we can verify change address by edit root option, my suggestion is that it should be automatically checked as well.
