Ariadne 0.1.1
- install.ps1 primary TLD source: HTTPS $Indexer/api/tlds -> advertised[]
(electrum fetchTldList / legacy fetchBcnrTlds / ariadne.config.json /
bootstrap kept as fallbacks in that order). Silent installs no longer
stall when WSS is blocked.
- Persistent transcript at C:\ProgramData\Ariadne\install.log; separate
install-error.log on any uncaught exception. Top-level trap logs the full
stack, then exit 1 so Inno/NSIS silent-install callers see a real failure.
- .iss: SetupLogging=yes; DeinitializeSetup() copies Inno's log to
C:\ProgramData\Ariadne\inno-setup.log on every exit path.
- Version bumped to 0.1.1. sha256=be1fa8841919b321841d90f8147abe1b1d7604fe7fff6c2e271dc47c4c24a2b6
Theseus decoupled from Ariadne
- Removed nsis/installer.nsh (custom Ariadne chain-install page).
- Removed extraResources entry for AriadneResolver-Setup-*.exe.
- Removed build.nsis.include from package.json.
- Settings > System-wide resolver panel now fetches the .exe from
https://silentmode.st/releases-manifest.json, streams the download while
hashing, refuses to spawn on SHA-256 mismatch. 30-min in-memory manifest
cache so opening Settings doesn't spam the endpoint. Offline gracefully
degrades to installedVersion-only / canUpdate:false.
- "bundledVersion" IPC field kept for renderer compatibility; it now
carries "latest advertised by the site's manifest".

Per-TLD certificates on a distinct TLD beacon supersede the legacy list-in-one-NFT
model. TLD label is the NFT commitment; TREG/TUPD payloads on the TLD beacon
mirror REG/UPD on the name beacon. Chipnet TLD beacon:
bchtest:qzc4c76vtw9nd49g6x8nmvc0jz62uvk4dc7hmpmerh
scripthash c85db10e106606273422b2733b2a6fb8b35a4d0e7dbfb20cf59bdb0833c008b8
* config.js, resolver-web.{js,d.ts} — TLD_BEACON + TLD_BEACON_SCRIPTHASH
* bns.js — KNOWN_OPS { REG, UPD, TREG, TUPD }, registerTld/updateTld/normalizeTld
* bns.js + resolver-web.js — buildIndex({enforceTld:false}) drops name REGs
whose TLD lacks a live TLD cert at their block height (mempool-friendly).
Lockstep across both files.
* lib/tld-index.js — buildTldSnapshot({history,txs}) → deterministic root over
canonicalised tlds[]. Pure, importable, and stable across insertion order.
* indexer/bns-indexer.js — BeaconIndex is multi-beacon; ws handler dispatches
by scripthash; new HTTP endpoint GET /tld-list.json + /health behind
BNS_HTTP_PORT; state file v1 → v2 migrates in fromJSON.
* publish-tld-mirror.mjs — S3 (floating + immutable content-addressed) plus
NIP-33 kind 30078 d:bns-tld-list to Nostr relays, signed via nostr-tools
(libauth's Schnorr differs from BIP-340 and relays reject it).
* seed-tld-beacon.mjs — idempotent chipnet seed. Current set on the beacon:
bch p2p bit nav test x asm neo gt sc sia com dex cex nt (15). `.com` is
held by the operator: cert on-chain, excluded from public registrar UI.
Design + docs:
* Decentralized.DNS/DESIGN-tld-registry.md — schema, enforcement,
operator-countersig gate, USD-tiered pricing floors, fee splits,
tracker/mirror mechanics, migration/grandfathering.
* INSTRUCTIONS.md §3 rewritten for the 4-step flow (TREG → UI → deploy →
republish snapshot).
* site/tlds/ — public docs page listing current TLDs + verification paths.
* site/sirius/register.html — dropdown removed; parallel search across
every TLD in the TLDS array, sorted available → taken → not-on-registry.
Config:
* ariadne.config.json tlds → [bch, p2p, bit, nav, test, x] (CA constraints;
on-chain registry is now the authoritative source, config is fallback).
* setup/install.ps1 — reads TLD list via fetchTldList (per-TLD registry)
with fallback to fetchBcnrTlds (legacy tls.bch list-NFT) then config.
Tests:
* test/tld-index.test.mjs — 30 self-contained checks (multi-beacon dispatch,
state migration, ws routing, snapshot shape + root recomputability).
* test/tld-enforcement.test.mjs — synthetic + live chipnet integration
(with-gate correctly drops all pre-seed names).
Three doc-alignment changes shipping in AriadneResolver-Setup-0.1.0.exe
sha256 c5efae43af6cc163f468f1dc73d08939db32a9a6db52298ba18b2d9a2aee1292:
1. install.ps1 fetches the activated TLD list from the on-chain root
TLD certificate (tlds.bch, per START-HERE §1) via
resolver-web.js fetchBcnrTlds(), then:
- regenerates the CA's nameConstraints extension from that list
(rotates the CA when the on-chain set changes so leaves for the
newly-activated TLDs actually validate)
- adds one NRPT rule per activated TLD in surgical mode
- falls back to bootstrap ["bch"] if the chain is unreachable
Result: adding a TLD on-chain is picked up by re-running the
installer, no code release needed.
2. bnsd.js honors --policy / BNS_POLICY (bcnr-first | icann-first,
alias bns-first) per START-HERE §4b. bcnr-first is default and
preserves prior behavior. icann-first forwards to upstream first
and only substitutes a BCNR answer on NXDOMAIN. install.ps1
accepts -Policy and passes it into the scheduled task action.
3. ca.js loadOrCreateRootCA() now accepts a runtime TLD list; the
old callers still work (fall back to PERMITTED_TLDS from tlds.js).
Doc: RESOLVER-PACKAGING-PROMPT.md rewritten to reflect current
shipping reality; original 2026-07-26 packaging brief preserved
in the "Archival" section.
Deployed to dl.silentmode.st (nginx serves from /opt/silent-mode/dl/)
and mirrored to Sia bns/silentmode/. VPS bns-indexer.service reports
tlds.bch currently activates: bch p2p deviant nav sia dgb nt sm lm.
Was only .bch. The daemon and CA already handle these four TLDs; the NRPT
rule was the missing piece that made .p2p / .bit / .nav queries never reach
the daemon at all (they went to ICANN's normal DNS and NXDOMAIN'd).
Dual TLDs (.de .ru .dev .ltd) intentionally NOT here. They need the
daemon's DNS-forwarding path to work reliably for unregistered names,
and there's still an open EDNS/AAAA forwarding bug in bnsd.js that
would break most German/Russian sites if we NRPT'd .de.
Adding more native TLDs (.x .sia .dgb .nt from Theseus's expanded set)
needs a CA rotation first — the current CA's nameConstraints only permit
bch/p2p/bit/deviant/nav/test/bcnr. Deferred.
- Security popover redesigned to resemble Firefox's site-info panel:
lock/shield hero, "Connection secure" status, host, plain-language
subtitle, and a details grid; the overlay view auto-sizes to content.
- Search-engine picker returned to the toolbar with an "Add / edit engines…"
entry that opens Settings; added Ecosia, Mojeek, Presearch.
- Custom search engines: add (name + URL template with %s) / remove in
Settings > General; used by address-bar search.
- Address-bar placeholder: "Ask a search engine or enter web address".
