The volume prune gets the same treatment as the image prune in 0.61.0:
the candidates are listed and removed one by one in the background, and
the Volumes page shows a progress bar (x / y, the volume being removed,
failures) followed by a toast with the space freed.
The button also used to delete without asking, and a bare docker volume
prune only removes anonymous volumes on Engine 23+ with no way to include
named ones. It now opens a confirmation dialog with an explicit -a option
that warns it also takes the data of every stack that is down.
- Candidates: volumes no container (running or stopped) mounts, local
scope only, and anonymous (com.docker.volume.anonymous) unless -a.
Volumes from pre-23 daemons carry no such label, so they only go with
-a, which errs on the side of keeping data.
- Removed without force, so a volume mounted since the listing is
refused; one refusal does not stop the rest.
- No closing daemon prune: nothing is left over, and on a pre-23 daemon an
unfiltered one would delete named volumes too.
- Freed space is the sum of the deleted volumes' sizes (volumes share no
data), from the size cache, which is invalidated afterwards.
- POST /api/volumes/prune takes all= and background=; without background
it still waits and returns {VolumesDeleted, SpaceReclaimed}.
GET /api/volumes/prune-status is admin-only.
- volume_sizes() ("Compute sizes") now uses the long-timeout client; it
walks every volume and could hit the same 60s limit.
The progress machinery moved into services/prune_job.py (PruneJob,
PrunePlan) and, on the frontend, the usePruneJob hook and PruneProgress
component, shared by both pages. The status now carries a phase
(preparing / removing / finishing) so the parts without a count say what
they are doing.

docker image prune is a single blocking call that reports nothing until it
is done. With -a on a host with many images that meant minutes of a
spinner, and past the proxy timeout an error while the daemon carried on.
The prune now removes its candidates one by one and publishes how far it
is. The candidates are the ones Docker would pick: dangling only by
default, with -a every image no container (running or stopped) uses. The
UI starts the prune in the background (POST /api/images/prune?background=
true, 202) and polls GET /api/images/prune-status. A progress bar above
the image table shows x / y, the image being removed and any failures,
and a toast reports the outcome. It survives a reload and shows up in a
second tab.
- Multi-tag images lose their tags one by one instead of force=True, so a
container created since the listing still makes the daemon refuse.
- One refused image does not stop the rest; up to ten errors are kept.
- Docker's own prune runs last to sweep up leftovers.
- Freed space is measured (image LayersSize before and after) rather than
summed, which would count base layers shared with the images that stay.
- Without background=true the endpoint still waits and returns the old
{ImagesDeleted, SpaceReclaimed} shape, so API-token scripts are
unaffected. A second prune while one runs gets 409.
- The audit entry now counts deleted images, not Docker's untag entries.
