User-authored artwork wins. mark.webp is the main icon; two sibling variants
(mark-wings-both.webp, mark-variant.webp) ship alongside for brand uses.
- bundled-addons/hermes/addon.json: version 0.2.2, icon/panels[0].icon are
now data:image/webp;base64,... from the main mark.
- bundled-addons/hermes/assets/mark.webp: served by the host via the panel
page's relative path (seedBundledAddons' fs.cpSync recursive carries it).
- bundled-addons/hermes/panel.html: both top-bar and signin inline SVGs
become <img src="assets/mark.webp"> at 24 and 72 px.
- site/hermes/index.html: hero SVG → <img> at 120 px.
- site/hermes/branding/{index.html,mark.webp,mark-wings-both.webp,mark-variant.webp}:
branding kit now carries the three webp files; the inline hero SVG uses
the main one.
- site-hermes-x/{index,branding,messenger}/index.html: same SVG → <img>
swap with the appropriate assets/ relative path.
- site-hermes-x/assets/mark{,-wings-both,-variant}.webp: sibling of the
existing favicon.svg and mark SVGs (kept for backward refs that still
point at them).
Legacy mark.svg + mark-stroke.svg + favicon.svg stay in place for any
external references; nothing in-repo points at them for the primary icon
slots anymore. favicons still point at the SVG files — safe to leave;
flipping those to webp is a one-liner if you want it.
The sidebar panel used to be a launcher that opened the standalone Messages
window; now it IS the messenger — signin screen with "Open with Theseus ID"
(derives the Nostr key from the unlocked vault seed) or "Open an existing
account" (12/24-word mnemonic fallback), then a contacts + thread view with
a narrow-width single-column fallback. The ⧉ button still pops the standalone
window out, so the Ctrl+Shift+E flow keeps working.
- main.js: expose a global._hermesAPI with status/canUseVault/init/inbox/
send/markThreadRead/contacts* so the addon can proxy panel calls without
granting it ipcRenderer or crossing the HERMES_ONLY sender gate.
hermesEmit also fans out on an in-process __hermes_bus so the panel gets
live inbox/status pushes decoupled from hermesWin's lifetime.
- bundled-addons/hermes/index.js: proxies each allow-listed method onto
global._hermesAPI, forwards bus events to api.emit for the panel.
- panel.html: signin + app screens, mobile-style single column under 540px.
- Mark updated to the spread-wings variant: envelope sized up (34×22),
three tapered trails extending outside the viewBox so the wings don't
bunch at the back of the envelope at any size. Applied to the addon
icon (manifest base64), the panel header, both /hermes sites, and
site-hermes-x's favicon + mark SVGs.
New site-hermes-x/ — standalone .x site (own nav, own assets, own OG tags),
sibling to site-theseus-x and site-sirius-x. Internal nav stays on hermes.x:
Overview, Messenger (preview + UI mockup), Branding (brand kit). The only
cross-link is 'Get Theseus' pointing at theseus.x where appropriate.
Mark redesigned: tilted winged envelope with three tapered speed-trails on
the back-left (top longest, bottom shortest). Default colour sky #38BDF8 —
swappable via --sky in site-hermes-x/assets/shared.css. Alternate orange
palette documented but not applied by default. Mark propagated to:
- site-hermes-x/assets/mark.svg + mark-stroke.svg (16-20px variant)
- site/hermes/{index.html, branding/{index.html, mark.svg, mark-stroke.svg}}
- TheseusNavigator/bundled-addons/hermes/{addon.json, panel.html}
Theseus addon moves out of the top-right extensions dock and into the
left-strip sidebar: panels[].side = 'left' + registerSidebarPanel({side:'left'}).
Appears alongside Mail/Pithos/Telegram, excluded from rightPanels() so the
extensions dock no longer lists it. Verified via sidebarState() CDP query —
hermes:main is no longer in the right-panels list.
site/hermes/ (the nested silentmode.st/hermes page) also updated to the new
mark for consistency; both the sovereign hermes.x and the silentmode-nested
page now show the same winged envelope.
