Three top-level groups replace the flat eight categories on the home
page and /browse:
Apps 7 sub-categories inside: browsers / communication /
privacy / devtools / media / productivity / other
Games single bucket for now; sub-chips later when there's volume
FinTech single bucket for now (BCH wallets, bridges, POS, DeFi)
Routes:
/t/<slug> top-level page. For Apps shows the 7 sub-chips + an
aggregated listings view across them. For Games and
FinTech shows the listings directly (no sub-chips).
/c/<slug> sub-category page under Apps (browsers, communication, …).
The sole-sub categories /c/games and /c/fintech 301 to
/t/games and /t/fintech respectively, so each view has
exactly one canonical URL.
Slug renames + removals in the CATEGORIES allow-list on listings.js:
utilities → productivity (the display label was already pointing at
that in people's heads — "productivity"
fits storage + sync + file tools better)
wallets → fintech (broader scope: bridges + POS + DeFi,
not just wallets)
games stays as a top-level sole-bucket
browsers NEW sub-category under Apps for BCNR
resolvers, mobile browsers, extensions
Seed listings re-categorised + two slug fixes:
theseus.x/theseus-navigator-win category: other → browsers
ariadne.x/ariadne-resolver-win → RENAMED to ariadne-thread-win,
name "Ariadne's Thread
(Windows resolver)" shortened
to just "Ariadne's Thread";
category: privacy → browsers
ariadne.x/ariadne-android → RENAMED to ariadne-navigator,
name "Ariadne's Thread
(Android)" → "Ariadne
Navigator" (it is a
different program, not a
platform build of Thread);
category: privacy → browsers
pithos.x/pithos-desktop category: utilities → productivity
scripts/migrate-taxonomy.mjs is a one-shot that deletes every row with
signature='SM_OPERATOR_SEED'; a subsequent `seed.mjs` run then inserts
the fresh set with the new slugs. Publisher-POSTed listings (none in
production today) are left alone. Idempotent — a second run finds
nothing to remove.
New icons:
top-apps.svg 2×2 rounded tile grid (OS launcher metaphor)
cat-browsers.svg browser window + 3 chrome dots + content block
Three icons reused: cat-games.svg doubles as the Games top icon,
cat-wallets.svg as the FinTech top icon (same visual, different label);
cat-utilities.svg stays as the Productivity sub icon.

Prometheus
The service behind prometheus.x — a standalone website that accepts app
listings, scans the binaries, generates APS1 records for publishers to sign,
and serves the browse pages.
The architecture decisions and the reasoning behind them live at
_coordination/sessions/prometheus-x-architecture.md.
Read that before touching the code; it answers the questions this directory
otherwise invites ("why isn't this on Sia?", "why isn't the admin on another
subdomain?", "why Node?").
service/ Node HTTP server, templates, scanner, storage, payments
public/ Static assets served under /static/
content/ Prose content in a form the templates render into pages
Run it locally
cd Prometheus
npm install # none yet; placeholder for when deps show up
node service/server.js
Opens on http://127.0.0.1:3700 by default. Override with PORT=xxxx.
Layout
The server is one node:http listener behind a trivial map-based router.
Pages are plain functions that return {title, description, body} and
layout() wraps them in the common document shell. Static files under
public/ are served directly.
There's no framework and no templating engine on purpose — a site this small does not earn a dependency surface, and the response-rendering path is short enough to read at a glance.
