Two features:
1. Operator can hide TLDs from the public /api/tlds listing so hidden
TLDs stop appearing in name-search UIs. On-chain registrations
under a hidden TLD keep resolving — this is a UX filter, not
enforcement.
Gateway (public-gateway.mjs):
- Persistent HIDDEN_TLDS set backed by hidden-tlds.json next to
the service script
- GET /api/tld-visibility -> {hidden:[...]} (public)
- POST /api/tld-visibility -> updates the list (operator-gated by
Bearer BNS_OPERATOR_TOKEN env var; if unset, all writes refused
so we default-deny)
- /api/tlds filters out HIDDEN_TLDS; add ?include_hidden=1 to see
everything (used by the admin panel to show all rows)
- Operator token installed via systemd override on the VPS
Admin panel:
- New 'Operator token' card at the top of the TLD-registry section;
token stored in sessionStorage (not localStorage) so a full
browser close forgets it
- Each TLD row got a 'Hidden from public' checkbox that POSTs on
toggle and refreshes the table; failures roll back the checkbox
and surface the error next to the token field
2. Wallet dropdown restored to 4 direct actions
(Unlock / Create a wallet / Import a wallet / WizardConnect) and
the shared mint/sign-in modal grew a tab strip so users can switch
between the four wallet actions from any step without going back
to a choice screen.
register-flow.js:
- renderTabs(active) prepended to stepCreate/stepImport/stepUnlock/
stepExternal when signInOnly is set. Unlock tab only appears
when a saved wallet exists.
- Delegated click handler on the sheet routes tab clicks to the
matching step; switching away from a live WC session tears it
down first so we don't leak WebSockets.
profile-menu.js:
- Restored 4-item onboarding menu (Create/Import/WC plus Unlock
when saved). Each item is a direct entry point; the tabbed modal
lets the user pivot to any other option without closing.
Cache-buster bumped on all 8 sirius-x pages to ?v=20260908tabs.
Two changes:
1. Wallet dropdown simplified from three direct-action items into one
'Sign in or create wallet' launcher (plus 🔓 Unlock when a saved
wallet is present). The single item opens the shared modal at
stepWallet — the choice screen showing all four options (Unlock /
Create / Import / WizardConnect) as clear cards. Clicking a card
reveals its form. Users see the options first, then commit to a
path, instead of landing on a form for one path without seeing the
others.
register-flow.js's stepWallet grew a signInOnly-aware header ('Sign
in or create a wallet' / 'Pick one. Your keys stay in this browser')
so the choice screen reads as sign-in context, not a name mint.
startSignIn still accepts direct-mode entry points (new/import/wc/
unlock) for deep-links like portal.html?mode=X, but the nav dropdown
funnels to 'choose' for the choice-first experience.
2. Theseus subpage copy updated per request: 'native .bch / BCNR name
resolution built in' -> 'native Bitcoin Cash Domain Names resolution
built in'. Meta description mirrored.
Previously, the only way to unlock a wallet that had been saved in this
browser was to click Register (name or TLD), open the modal, and pick
'Unlock my browser wallet' from the wallet-choice step. From the nav
dropdown you could only start onboarding fresh (New / Import / WC).
profile-menu.js now checks localStorage for the BuiltInWallet's storage
key (bns.wallet.v1) at every render, and when a saved wallet is present
inserts a '🔓 Unlock my wallet' item at the top of the not-signed-in
dropdown — with a divider below it, so it reads as the primary action
and the Onboarding options stay available for adding a different wallet.
The dropdown click handler already lazy-loads register-flow.js and
calls window.siriusSignInWallet(action); register-flow.js's startSignIn
grew an 'unlock' mode that opens the modal directly at stepUnlock (the
password prompt). Same success path as every other sign-in: on unlock
success, siriusProfile is written and the modal closes with '✓ Signed
in' — the nav pill flips to the address without a reload.
Verified end-to-end on landing: saved wallet detected -> dropdown shows
Unlock as first item -> click -> password -> '✓ Signed in' -> pill
becomes 'qqyx49…zx8x seed ▾' with no reload. TLD mint from tld.html
also verified end-to-end: search 'e2etldtest' -> Register -> modal ->
Unlock -> password -> Fund -> Confirm (fee 1,250,000 sat + beacon dust
~1,300 sat) -> Register -> checking-availability -> loading-coins ->
'wallet is empty' (expected without chipnet funds; downstream code is
the same registerTldWithBuiltInWallet path the CLI uses).
Two UX polishes:
1. Register-tab icon flipped from 🪪 (identification-card emoji, renders
as a hollow box in system-ui fonts without extended emoji) to ✏️
(pencil), which reads as 'edit/create' and ships in every emoji font
worth targeting. Changed across the nav on all 8 pages plus the
footer injector's Product column. Kept the Register nav item — six
items total in the nav, and from any subpage it's one click to the
search on landing.
2. tld.html no longer duplicates the wallet-choice + mint flow inline.
The Register button on a search result now hands the label off to
the shared register-flow.js modal — same modal that name registration
uses — via a new window.siriusRegisterTld(label, {serviceFeeSats})
entry point.
register-flow.js grew:
- startTldFlow / window.siriusRegisterTld: sets state.tld and walks
the modal through wallet-choice → Fund → stepConfirmTld → stepRegisterTld
→ stepDoneTld
- stepConfirmTld: shows label + fee + owner, no per-name quote
- stepRegisterTld: dispatches to registerTldWithBuiltInWallet or
registerTldWithExternalWallet based on state.wallet/state.session
- stepDoneTld: 'X is yours' with txid + certificate id + operator
address, no record editor (a TLD certificate has no records to
set immediately)
- stepWallet / stepExternalConfirm branch on state.tld so the modal
heading and the WC-confirm path route correctly
tld.html trimmed: removed the entire signin-section + mint-section
plus their inline handlers (~250 lines gone). Now just search +
registered-TLDs list + a delegator to the shared modal. If a user
is already signed in via the wallet dropdown, the modal recognises
the saved wallet ('Unlock my browser wallet' button appears) instead
of asking them to sign in again on this page.
Wallet dropdown items (New / Import / WizardConnect) were navigating
to portal.html?mode=X and asking the user to click again on arrival.
That is 'the sign in landing page which is not functioning' from the
user's perspective — a whole redirect for one form.
Now every dropdown item opens the mint modal (register-flow.js) inline
at the matching step, on whatever page the user is on:
New -> stepCreate ('Create your wallet' — password + generate)
Import -> stepImport ('Import a recovery phrase' — textarea)
WizardConnect -> stepExternal ('Open your wallet' — QR/URI)
register-flow.js grew a signInOnly mode: state.name is null, the step
Back buttons close instead of going to a wallet-choice step there is
no context for, and on wallet-loaded the flow writes siriusProfile
and shows a 'Signed in' confirmation instead of Fund -> Confirm -> Mint.
WC signInOnly keeps the session alive (state.session) so a later
record edit can reuse it without a fresh QR handshake.
profile-menu.js: menu items became <a data-action='new|import|wc'>
and the click handler lazy-loads register-flow.js on demand — the
docs/brand/theseus pages don't ship it in their initial payload, so
their nav pill loads it the first time a wallet button is clicked and
caches it for subsequent opens. Falls back to portal.html?mode=X if
the module can't load. Cache-buster bumped so cached copies pick up
the new behavior.
Importmap for @bitauth/libauth added to docs/, brand/, theseus/ so
the bundle's bare specifier resolves when register-flow.js is
lazy-loaded from those pages.
Verified end-to-end on the live docs page: all three dropdown items
open the modal inline at the correct step, no console errors, no
navigation.
Register.html and the landing were running duplicate name-search UIs.
The register one was reported broken; the landing one already works
inline. Merged both into the landing:
- New js/register-flow.js — the full mint modal + wallet setup (Create /
Import / Unlock / WizardConnect / Fund / Confirm / Register / Point
it somewhere) extracted from register.html's <script type='module'>
and turned into a shared module. Injects its own scoped modal HTML +
CSS into the host page on load and exposes
window.siriusRegisterName(fullName) as its public entry point.
- Landing search results now have Register buttons that call the shared
flow directly. The whole 'search -> pick name -> mint' journey stays
on one page, no redirects, no duplicate search UI to maintain.
- register.html reduced to a redirect stub: preserves ?q= if present,
refreshes/JS-forwards to './' (landing), and shows a one-line
'Name search moved to the home page' fallback for JS-off users.
Old links keep working; no /register.html deep links are broken.
- All nav 'Register' entries now point at './#search-input' (or
'../#search-input' on subpages), scrolling straight to the landing
search box. Footer injector and every internal href updated the
same way. Zero live href='.../register.html' left in the tree.
Verified: register.html?q=hello redirects to /?q=hello; landing
search 'fresh42abc' -> Register button -> modal opens with
'Register fresh42abc.bch' at the wallet-choice step.
The nav's 'Theseus' link showed a generic 🧭 emoji, which renders
differently in every browser/OS and does not match theseus.x's
actual brand mark. Replaced with a small inline SVG of theseus.x's
compass (rounded dark square, N-half red, S-half acid) at 14x14 so
the button now carries theseus.x's real logo — recognisable and
identical everywhere.
Inlined the SVG rather than pointing at a shared asset so there's no
extra request per page and no relative-path arithmetic between root
and subdir pages. Applied to all 8 pages: landing, portal, register,
tld, theseus, docs, brand, admin.
Nav consistency: subpages had Try it → Theseus → Register → TLD while
the landing had Try it → Register → TLD → Theseus. Reordered every
page to the landing's order, so the top nav is identical everywhere:
Sirius.X | Try it | 🪪 Register | 🌐 TLD | 🧭 Theseus | 🔑 Sign in
(Admin adds its own 🛠 Admin between Theseus and Sign in since Admin
is the current page.)
Theseus subpage now carries Theseus.X's own branding: the compass
favicon (N-half red, S-half acid) copied from silentmode.st/bns/
theseus.x/assets/ lives under site-sirius-x/theseus/assets/, and the
subpage references it for <link rel=icon>, <link rel=mask-icon>, and
og:image. og:site_name flipped from 'Sirius.X' to 'Theseus Navigator'.
Hero mark swapped from the generic 🧭 emoji to the actual compass
SVG at 72px with a soft acid glow, so the page reads as Theseus at a
glance instead of borrowing Sirius's star.
Sign-in end-to-end verified on the live site:
- Landing dropdown → New wallet → portal auto-generates 12-word phrase
- Ack + Continue → me section revealed, siriusProfile written with
{address, tokenAddress, source: 'seed', signedInAt}
- Nav pill updates to 'qzc2vx…yn93 seed ▾' without reload
- Sign out → profile cleared, portal reset, pill back to 'Wallet ▾'
- Wallet address derives deterministically from the fresh mnemonic
(BuiltInWallet.create → deriveSeedFromBip39Mnemonic → HD path)
Three UX fixes:
1. Beautiful footer on every page. Extracted the 4-column landing footer
into js/site-footer.js — reads the nav brand link to derive per-page
base ('./' at root, '../' in subdirs) so links resolve from any depth
without duplicating the HTML across 8 pages. Every page now ships an
empty <footer id="site-footer"></footer> and includes the injector;
inline footer + its CSS block removed from landing too so the source
stays in one place.
2. Wallet button redesign. Pill now shows a state dot (dim when not
signed in, green with subtle glow when signed in), a monospace short
address label when signed in ('qra6rs…7yl2') OR 'Wallet' when not,
a WC/seed badge on signed-in state, and a subtle caret. Full border
and hover states, proper aria-expanded/aria-label wiring. Dropdown
menu itself upgraded: grid layout per item (icon column + title +
hint), heavier backdrop blur, larger min-width, clearer typography.
3. Dropdown options actually do something. Removed the redundant 'Open
sign-in page →' item — the other three all land on portal too, so
listing 'open the page' as a fourth option was noise. On portal
arrival, the ?mode= handler now AUTO-TRIGGERS the primary action for
each mode:
new -> click Generate a phrase (12 words appear immediately)
import -> focus the seed textarea (cursor ready to paste)
wc -> click Connect wallet (WC session starts, URI shown)
No extra clicks between dropdown choice and the flow it names.
Cache-buster on the profile-menu.js include bumped to
?v=20260907wallet so cached copies pick up the new design; footer
injector at ?v=20260907rel.
Missing user-facing surface: minting a TLD required either the portal
(sign in first, register second, tucked under 'Signed in') or the
operator-only admin panel. New tld.html is a public, single-purpose
page that lets anyone go straight from label to certificate.
Flow: type a label → live check against /api/tlds → 'Register .foo →'
appears → sign-in cards (New / Import / WizardConnect) revealed inline
→ mint section shows label, address, price → submit walks through
'connected → checking-availability → loading-coins → building →
signing → broadcasting → registered'.
Wire is proven end-to-end (search returns a registerable card for
free labels, wallet flow generates a valid seed, address, submit
reaches 'wallet is empty' with a friendly faucet hint for the
signed-in address). Downstream of loading-coins is the same build/
sign/broadcast path exercised by every name registration.
Dispatch on wallet.source uses registerTldWithExternalWallet when
signed in via WC, else registerTldWithBuiltInWallet. Live TLD table
under the search shows every currently registered TLD with its
category; refreshes on successful mint.
Nav: '🌐 TLD' added to all 7 pages between Register and Brand.
Landing's 'Register a TLD' card now points here (previously linked
to the operator admin, which locked out anyone who isn't operator).
