Two bundled fixes since 0.3.11:
e7dfa46 - At responsive level 3 the collapsed extension button was a
generic 🧩 puzzle piece. Swap it for the first registered extension's
own icon (📝 / ₿ / Ⓢ / whatever ships first). Puzzle piece stays as the
empty-state fallback when no addons are registered. Click still opens
the same dropdown of all installed extensions.
95cc2c7 - Remove the redundant 32-px extension picker strip that
sidebar-preload.js was injecting at the top of every add-on panel.
The toolbar extension dock is the canonical switcher now; doubling
that inside the sidebar just wasted vertical space and made narrow
panels cramped. Every panel reclaims its top 33px.

One bundled fix since 0.3.10:
beca0fa - A ResizeObserver on .bar sets data-responsive to one of four
levels based on width. CSS reacts: search box auto-hides at level 1,
Theseus button collapses to just the gear icon at level 2, and the
extension dock folds into a single 🧩 puzzle button opening a dropdown
of installed extensions at level 3. User's explicit Address bar /
Search box size settings still win at wide widths.

One bundled fix since 0.3.9:
d1f3347 - The brand acid green (#d6ff3d) was ~1.3:1 contrast on
#ffffff / #f6f8fb, so it went nearly invisible any time the user
flipped Settings > Theme to Light. Every chrome page (chrome, home,
settings, error, approval, messages) now overrides --acid to #4d7300
in its prefers-color-scheme: light block — same hue family, ~5.5:1
on white. Also added the missing --acid: #d6ff3d declaration to
chrome.html's :root (was relying on var(--acid, #d6ff3d) fallbacks,
so the light override couldn't bind). Verified live via CDP.

Two changes since 0.3.8:
f1d117e - .extbtn was display:grid, which is block-level, so multiple
extension buttons inside #extbuttons stacked vertically. Switch to
inline-grid — same icon-centering, no forced line break between
siblings. Verified on a running instance: all 4 dock buttons at the
same y-coordinate.
(this commit) - Remove the static Aegis ₿ placeholder button and its
handler. Redundant now that the real bchwallet addon ships in the box
and registers its own dock entry. Also flip the dock-hidden logic to
disappear entirely on a fresh install with no add-ons registered, so
the toolbar doesn't carry an empty slot for users who never install
one.
Deployed: scp + sia-upload of both trees. Verified LIVE 0.3.9.
registrar.js: BNS.connect() now filters silentmode.st/electrum and
coinspectrum.duckdns.org:50011 out of the default electrum list. Those
endpoints are our own bns-indexer.js — beacon-only, serves get_history +
transaction.get but NOT listunspent for arbitrary scripthashes. Every
wallet op (getBalance, getUtxos, edit signing) needs listunspent, so
picking a beacon indexer first (which we did for best reachability) broke
every wallet unlock with "-32601 unsupported method: blockchain.
scripthash.listunspent". New `beaconOk: true` opts back in for pure-
resolution paths.
Rebuilt the browser bundle (site/js/bns-register.js) so the fix reaches
portal + admin + register.html + anything else that imports BNS.connect.
site-sirius-x/js/profile-menu.js: a small shared script that transforms
the "🔑 Sign in" nav pill into a dropdown menu on every sirius.x page.
Signed-out shows New wallet / Add wallet / WizardConnect + a link to the
sign-in page. Signed-in (reads localStorage 'siriusProfile') shows the
short address, My names, Admin, Sign out. Included via one <script defer>
tag on each of the 6 pages (landing / portal / admin / docs / theseus /
brand); dropdown CSS is inlined by the script itself so consumers don't
need a matching stylesheet.
Portal.html writing to localStorage.'siriusProfile' after sign-in is a
follow-up so the dropdown reflects state across pages — until then the
menu always shows the onboarding options.

Bundled fixes since 0.3.7:
b649398 - User-resizable address bar + search box. Settings > Appearance >
Toolbar now offers urlBarSize (wide/medium/compact) and searchBoxSize
(hidden/compact/normal/wide). Applied as data-attrs on .bar so the flex
basis of .urlwrap and the width of .searchbox swap live. Motivation:
the per-extension dock (0.3.7) needs room to grow as users install more.
Settings-set broadcasts settings-update to chrome so resizing is instant
without a relaunch.
ab87576 - F12 / Ctrl+Shift+I opens Chromium DevTools on the active tab
in a detached window. Wired in the same before-input-event handler that
owns reload / sidebar shortcuts. Always targets the active tab
regardless of which view received the keystroke.

Bundled fixes since 0.3.6:
1026b08 - Per-extension toolbar dock: replaces the single sidebarbtn with
one button per registered addon sidebar-panel. Notepad (📝) and Silent
Mode Relay (🌐) appear automatically from their manifest icons; a static
Aegis Wallet placeholder (₿) marks the upcoming built-in BCH wallet.
Click a live button → open the sidebar on that panel, click active →
collapse. Preload adds openSidebar(panelId) / closeSidebar() wrappers.
622aaee - Right-click "Search for '<selection>'" in the page context

Bundled fixes since 0.3.5:
d3c3298 - Chrome-view gap root cause: body no longer inherits the chrome
view's height, so document.body.scrollHeight now measures actual content
and syncHeight can shrink chrome back after a menu close. The growing
blank strip above the page is gone (was previously ratcheting to the
260px clamp on every menu open).
1b4a3c3 - Bookmarks: favicons on every row (backfilled on revisit for
older entries) + Edit title actually works via an in-page modal (Electron
BrowserViews disable window.prompt, which is why the previous menu item
silently did nothing).
952bf5f - Tab tooltip on hover shows title + URL, the way Chrome/Firefox
do it. Uses the url field already present in the per-tab payload.
f591475 - Error page gets a first-class "You appear to be offline" kind
that fires when navigator.onLine is false — no more false "not registered"
verdicts when you're just disconnected. Plus a "did you mean" row that
suggests near-match BCNR names (Levenshtein ≤ 2, same TLD) from the warm
shared index — no network required, works offline. Click a suggestion
to retry with the original path preserved.

for any future overlay path that bypasses closeAllMenus.

Sign in -> /user/oauth2/hephaestus-wallet#import
Sign up -> /user/oauth2/hephaestus-wallet#create (pill: easiest)
WizardConnect -> /user/oauth2/hephaestus-wallet#connect (pill: most private)
Same emoji + copy scheme as the wallet accordion, so the landing previews
the choices the user will see after clicking through.
- Hephaestus/auth-proxy/public/wallet.js: renderTabs() now reads location.hash
and auto-opens the matching <details> option on load (create/import/connect).
Fragments survive Forgejo's OAuth redirect chain, so a click on 'Sign up'
from the landing lands the user directly on the Create accordion.

Chrome-view height gap: any tabs event that fires while no menu/popover
is open now normalises the chrome-view height via syncHeight(). A leaked
menu-close path could previously leave the strip inflated; the next
tabs update guarantees it shrinks back to the natural body-scrollHeight.
Tab-group drag-and-drop: group chips are now valid drop targets in the
same drag session as tab reorder. Dragging any tab onto a chip and
dropping assigns that tab to the chip's group (which also auto-clusters
it via the existing tab-group handler in main). Chip highlights acid
green while a valid drop hovers.
Collapsed group vertical popover: click a collapsed group chip and a
floating panel opens below it, listing every tab in the group. Each
row shows the favicon + title + a ✕ to close that tab. Clicking a row
switches to the tab AND expands the group so the newly-active tab
appears in the strip (tabGroupToggle). Popover closes on outside click
or Escape; the outside-click filter also ignores clicks inside .gchip
so opening the popover doesn't immediately close it.
growChromeForMenu() and closeAllMenus() now include .grouppop in their
overlay queries so the popover contributes to chrome-view sizing and
gets cleaned up alongside the ctxmenus.

Three address-bar suggestion fixes.
Per-row ✕ delete on hover. Clicks on the X call address-forget instead
of address-pick; the row disappears optimistically in the picker and
main drops the entry from history + persists. Sender-URL gated to the
picker's own file:// origin.
Enter with a highlighted suggestion now navigates to THAT url. The
URL input handler tracks a pickerHasCursor flag that flips true on
ArrowDown/ArrowUp and false on any input; Enter with cursor forwards
to the picker's own submit path via addressCursor("enter") — before
this fix, Enter always ran goURL against the typed letters, which
submitted them as a web search instead of opening the selected url.
Address bar reliably shows the picked URL. onAddressPicked now arms
an overrideUrlBarUntil = now+1500ms flag; the onTabs handler treats
that window as "force write the url", bypassing the focus-guard that
was leaving the bar blank when blur() hadn't landed yet.
Deployed: scp + sia-upload of both trees, verified LIVE 0.3.4.
Bulk-inserts <link rel="icon" type="image/svg+xml" href="/favicon.svg"> before
the </head> tag on every silentmode.st page that was missing it. All 36 site
HTML pages now advertise the chain-links favicon; browsers show it in tabs
and bookmarks across the whole umbrella site.
Pages touched (29): apps/, choose/*, deviant/* (7 pages under the parent
house), hephaestus/, hephaestus.x/* (9 chain-published mirror pages),
nav/ (redirect stub), register.html (redirect stub), sirius/,
sirius/register.html, store/ (redirect stub), tlds/.
Already had favicon from earlier passes (7): index.html, brand/,
tools/, prometheus/, helios/, hermes/, releases/.
Line-ending preservation: choose/index.html and sirius/register.html were
originally stored with CRLF endings; the plain Python read/write path
normalized them to LF and produced a noisy diff. Both files re-serialized as
CRLF before the favicon insert to keep the diff to +1 line each.
Deploy: rsync-equivalent tar-pipe to /opt/silent-mode/site/, plus per-file scp
for the two CRLF-corrected files. Verified live: 7 spot-checked URLs each
report exactly one <link rel="icon"> in served HTML.

Three 0.3.2 misses fixed:
Tab context menu was clipped by the chrome view's fixed height — the
menu rendered with position:fixed inside a WebContentsView whose
bottom edge stops at CHROME_H, so items below the tab strip weren't
visible. New growChromeForMenu() measures every open menu's bounding
box and calls T.setChromeHeight(needed) so main.js grows the chrome
view to fit; closeAllMenus() calls syncHeight() to restore.
Bookmarks bar was hidden on every tab except Home, so Add-to-
Bookmarks had no on-screen feedback. Now always visible.
Tab groups now actually cluster. Assigning a color to a tab moves it
adjacent to its group-mates in the tabs array (main-side splice, no
render-only trick). The chrome renderer inserts a colored group chip
before the first tab of each group; clicking the chip toggles a
per-group collapsed state (in-memory, resets on relaunch). Collapsed
groups hide their member tabs and the chip shows the member count.
Expanded groups keep the per-tab top color stripe from 0.3.2 so the
cluster reads as one visual block.

Right-click a tab: floating context menu with Reload, Duplicate, Group
(submenu: None / Red / Orange / Yellow / Green / Cyan / Blue / Purple),
Add to Bookmarks, Mute (also Unmute; 🔇 shows next to the title when
muted), Close. Menus close on outside click or Escape.
Group state is per-tab. A grouped tab shows a colored dot before the
title and a matching 2-px accent stripe on the top edge, so a cluster
of same-group tabs reads visually. Palette is drawn from existing
provenance colors (err/warn/acid/srv/sia/blue).
Backend IPCs are all tab-scoped (not "active tab"): tab-reload,
tab-duplicate, tab-mute (toggle or explicit boolean), tab-group,
tab-bookmark. emitTabs payload gains muted, group, and url so the
menu can read current state.
Installer wizard branding: 164×314 sidebar BMP with the compass mark
centered + "Theseus / NAVIGATOR" wordmark under it, plus a 150×57
top-strip header with a mini compass on the right. Sharp can't write
BMP directly (only png/webp/etc), so nsis/make-icons.mjs renders raw
RGB via sharp and wraps it in a hand-rolled 24-bit uncompressed BMP
header. Uninstaller reuses the same sidebar.
Silent-install fix: nsis/installer.nsh's AriadnePageCreate now checks
IfSilent BEFORE touching nsDialogs::Create. In /S mode the flag is
zeroed and the function returns cleanly, so the installer no longer
hangs waiting for a page it will never draw. This is why 0.3.2 needed
two builds — the first hung on /S install; the fixed hash is the one
that ships.
Deployed: scp + sia-upload of both trees. Verified VPS hash matches
local 09331b2f. Fresh /S install to D:\Program Files\Theseus Navigator\
placed 0.3.2 with the correct HKCU Uninstall registry entry.

The update flow no longer asks the user to click Download. When
checkForUpdate detects a newer version, autoDownloadUpdate() kicks off
session.defaultSession.downloadURL against the setup URL immediately.
will-download recognises the update URL and routes the file to a
fixed %TEMP% path (bypassing the visible downloads panel entirely),
streams updateDownloadReceived/Total into the chip via
emitUpdateAvailable, and flips updateDownloadState to "ready" when
the transfer finishes.
Chip states:
idle first render before the fetch starts — clickable to
trigger the manual download (kept as a fallback).
downloading "↓ 42% — 0.3.2" — no click, just progress.
ready "✓ Install 0.3.2 & restart" — one click.
failed fall back to the pre-0.3.1 explicit-download click.
install-update-now IPC: spawns the cached setup with /S (detached,
stdio ignored), then app.quit() 400ms later so the installer can
overwrite the running exe. Our nsis/installer.nsh detects an existing
Ariadne install via the HKLM registry and skips its Ariadne prompt on
upgrades, so the /S run is fully unattended.
The one-click flow eliminates two long-standing sources of confusion:
- "Download opens a different browser" — Theseus's default session
fetches the installer itself, not a URL handoff to shell.
- "Update requires multiple wizard clicks" — /S skips them.
Extensions aren't touched by this. The framework lives in
addons-host.js + sidebar-preload.js; add-ons themselves live in
%APPDATA%\Theseus Navigator\addons\<id>\ and are a separate layer.
New extensions ship by drop-a-folder, no browser release required.

Home cards decoupled from the installer. Theseus now fetches
https://dl.silentmode.st/home-cards.json at boot and every 6h, caches
into <userData>/home-cards-remote.json, and applies it as the default
tier. Priority in loadHomeCards() is:
1. <userData>/home-cards.json (user edits — unchanged, always win)
2. <userData>/home-cards-remote.json (last successful fetch)
3. DEFAULT_HOME_CARDS (code fallback for offline first-boot)
On a successful refresh, main pushes the new list to every home tab
via the home-cards IPC — but only when the user has NO local edits.
The user's edit mode remains authoritative.
Content updates now happen by editing site/home-cards.json and running
scp + sia-upload. No browser build required.
Prometheus.X copy fix: "Decentralized App Marketplace" (was
"marketplace for BCDN-hosted apps" — the marketplace isn't BCDN-
specific). Applied to both DEFAULT_HOME_CARDS (fallback) and
site/home-cards.json (canonical live copy).
Deployed:

- verified home-cards.json served 200, manifest 0.3.0 live
Existing installs of 0.2.5 will surface 0.3.0 in the update chip and
also pull the new home-cards.json — so the "Decentralized App
Marketplace" wording lands on ANY current install (0.3.0+) the moment
this commit deploys, without waiting for anyone to install 0.3.0.
Wait — 0.3.0 is what CARRIES the fetch logic. So the auto-pull benefit
only kicks in from 0.3.0 onward. Users on 0.2.5 or earlier need to
install 0.3.0 once; from then on every home-card edit reaches them
without a new browser release.

Home page card grid gets a brand pass. Each title's TLD suffix (.X,
.bch, ...) is now styled in acid (--acid) with a soft text-shadow
glow. styledTitle() splits the domain on the last dot so capital
labels like "Theseus.X" render as ink + acid.
Card copy tightened per name:
hello.bch A small page on the blockchain itself.
siatest.bch A page with no server, backed by Sia.
SilentMode.X Infrastructure development for a decentralized web.
Theseus.X The Web Navigator - this browser's own address.
Sirius.X Register and manage BCDN names.
Hephaestus.X The forge - Silent Mode's code host.
Prometheus.X An app store - a marketplace for BCDN-hosted apps.
Helios.X Search engine for the decentralized web (in design).
Hermes.X Messaging - end-to-end encrypted over Nostr.
Badges: dropped the generic ".x" tag; each .X card carries its role
label instead. Palette assigns each role a distinct hue drawn from
the existing provenance colors, so the grid reads as families without
adding new brand values:
Infrastructure / Registrar acid
Navigator blue
Code host sia purple
App store srv teal
Search warn amber
Messaging err coral
Descriptions brighten from --mut to --ink on card hover so the ink
color reads as the "acid touch" the user asked for without adding
literal green blocks to every card.

Home cards: DEFAULT_HOME_CARDS replaced with the .x sibling grid the
user asked for -- hello.bch, siatest.bch (the "types of BCDN" pair),
then silentmode.x / theseus.x / sirius.x / hephaestus.x /
prometheus.x / helios.x / hermes.x. Existing installs with a saved
home-cards.json keep their edits (defaults only seed fresh profiles).
Search engine picker sync: user reported the toolbar dropdown listed
engines as active that Settings > Search showed differently. Root
cause: settings.searchEngine could be pointing at an id not in the
currently-enabled set (stale settings.json after DEFAULT_ENABLED
changes across versions). loadSettings now normalizes on boot -- if
searchEngine isn't enabled, fall back to enabled[0]; and
installedEngines gets unioned with enabledEngines so the two lists
can't disagree in ways that make toolbar and Settings render
different rows.
Proxy auth support in the framework: setSessionProxy accepts
`{ proxyRules, auth: { username, password } }` or an inline
`socks5://user:pass@host:port` URL. When creds are present, the
handler strips them from the URL, installs a session#login listener
on the default session that answers with them, then calls setProxy.
Chromium's SOCKS5 client doesn't consume proxy auth (known Chromium
limitation), but HTTP proxies work; SOCKS-based extensions need to
gate by IP allowlist at their server. Log line masks the password.
Update chip note: the "download opens in a different browser" was
0.2.0-era behavior. 0.2.1 rewired it to session.downloadURL. Anyone

Brand: the red-N compass from theseus.x is now the taskbar / titlebar /
File Explorer icon everywhere. Source SVG lives at
site-theseus-x/assets/favicon.svg so brand + browser icon stay in sync.
nsis/make-icons.mjs renders it to build/icon.png (512x512) and
build/icon.ico (multi-resolution: 16/24/32/48/64/128/256). Wired into
package.json: build.win.icon, build.nsis.installerIcon + uninstaller
+ header; the ico ships as an extraResource so main.js's BrowserWindow
also uses it at runtime. Icons live in build/ which is gitignored -
run `node nsis/make-icons.mjs` when the SVG changes.
Sidebar: multi-panel picker strip. When 2+ extensions register sidebar
panels, sidebar-preload.js injects a 32-px tab strip at the top of
every panel's document. Click a tab -> ipcRenderer sidebar-open ->
loadFile switch. Preload also injects box-sizing:border-box + a
33-px body padding so height:100% panels don't overflow. Solo-panel
case is unchanged (strip only appears when panels.length >= 2).

Icons regenerated from theseus.x's favicon.svg; the .svg itself
shipped in the 0.1.x window when the theseus.x site went live.
site/brand/index.html and site/sirius/register.html were still on the old
5-tab layout (Tools · Prometheus · Sirius · Helios · Hermes). Every other
silentmode.st page had already converged on the 6-tab pantheon
(Theseus · Prometheus · Sirius · Hephaestus · Helios · Hermes) via parallel-
session updates. Bringing these two into alignment.
No .X suffix on any label — pantheon labels are bare across the umbrella
site; the .X TLD form is reserved for the future standalone product sites
(theseus.x, sirius.x, hephaestus.x, prometheus.x, helios.x, hermes.x).
Verified live: both pages return the 6 canonical labels in order.

User-visible rename: the Settings tab and its labels say "Extensions"
now instead of "Add-ons". Internal identifiers (disabledAddons, the
addons/ folder, IPC channels, capability strings) stay put — code
churn wasn't worth it, and users only see the user-facing text.
Draggable sidebar. sidebar-preload.js now injects a 5px grip strip
along the LEFT edge of every panel document. mousedown+mousemove
streams delta-x px to main via sidebar-drag IPC; main clamps to
[200, 800] and debounces a save to settings.sidebarWidth. Width is
restored on next launch. The default is still 340. Faint acid-green
highlight on hover so the affordance is discoverable.
New extension capability: session-proxy. An extension whose addon.json
declares "session-proxy" gets api.setSessionProxy(rules) which routes
to session.defaultSession.setProxy — the same primitive Tor already
uses under the hood. Rules can be a string ("socks5://host:port") or
an object matching Electron's setProxy shape; null clears. The
capability is opt-in: an extension without the declaration gets an
error if it tries to call setSessionProxy. This is the framework
surface a private 3-VPS relay extension would build on (extension
folder stays on the operator's disk only; nothing about it appears in
the public build).
Deployed: scp installers + manifest + tools/ + releases/ pages to
VPS, sia-upload of both trees, verified HEAD 200 and manifest 0.2.2.
Fresh-browser test surfaced two staleness bugs on the standalone landing:
- Source link pointed at silentmode/silentmode — that repo was deleted last
turn when we split into per-project repos. Point at silentmode/hephaestus
now (which actually holds this landing page's home + the docker-compose /
auth-proxy / Caddyfile that serves it).
- "Let's Encrypt TLS" was true for code.silentmode.st but not for hephaestus.x
itself, which now uses a Silent Mode CA cert from Argonautica. Reword to
reflect the dual-hostname primary/mirror architecture and the two cert
stories.
Also mention the DR-backup relationship — the Sia bucket now mirrors the VPS
static content nightly, not the other way around.

Update chip: the Download button used to hand the URL to the system
browser (shell.openExternal) - user opens Theseus, gets prompted to
update, clicks Download, watches ANOTHER browser wake up and start
the transfer. That's the "why did a different browser open?" report.
Fix: session.defaultSession.downloadURL(url) - triggers the same
will-download handler our own downloads panel already listens on, so
the file lands in the user's Downloads folder AND appears in
Theseus's downloads chip with progress + Show-in-folder. Rejected
protocols unchanged; only dl.silentmode.st and silentmode.st URLs
survive the allowlist.
Ctrl+B toggles the add-on sidebar (matches VS Code). Verified end-

Adds live pages for each repo without leaving hephaestus.x:
hephaestus.x/silentmode/ → index of all silentmode/* repos
hephaestus.x/silentmode/theseus/ → README + recent commits + clone URLs
hephaestus.x/silentmode/sirius/ → same
hephaestus.x/silentmode/ariadne/ → same, gated ("private, sign in to browse")
hephaestus.x/silentmode/hephaestus/ → same, gated
Single _template.html hardcoded per repo via sed; each detail page pulls
metadata + README + last 8 commits from code.silentmode.st via the
CORS-enabled Forgejo API on load, renders README with a minimal
markdown-to-HTML pass, and gracefully falls back to a "sign in to browse"
note when the API returns 401/404 (private repo).
The URL stays on hephaestus.x while browsing — user only leaves when they
click "Browse full source →" or a specific commit link.

0.1.x -> 0.2.x — two new subsystems land together. 0.1.3 (which had
only the error pages) is retired; those hashes never went live, so
we jump 0.1.2 -> 0.2.0 for clean version->hash 1:1.
Add-on framework:
- Discovery scans <userData>/addons/<id>/; each add-on carries an
addon.json manifest and an activate(api) CommonJS entry. Nothing
about a private add-on ships in the public build - drop the
folder, restart, it's live.
- Bundled 'Notepad' reference add-on ships in resources/bundled-addons/
and is seeded into the user's addons dir on first boot. Right-
sidebar textarea, autosave, char/word counter.
- Extension point in this rev: sidebar-panel (WebContentsView on the
right, SIDEBAR_W=340). Toolbar toggle appears only when at least
one add-on registers a panel.
- Settings gains an Add-ons tab: list installed, per-add-on enable/
disable toggle (settings.disabledAddons persists), Show folder /
Open add-ons folder / Reload buttons, trust-model warning.
- Origin-gated per-addon storage: main derives the add-on id from the
sender file:// URL, so a panel can only touch its own kv store
under <userData>/addons-data/<id>.json.
Branded error page:
- did-fail-load on every tab -> error.html with kind = name-not-
registered (BCNR host + ERR_NAME_NOT_RESOLVED) | name-unreachable
(non-BCNR host + NAME_NOT_RESOLVED) | unreachable (conn refused/
reset/timeout) | tls (cert range) | generic.
- Actions per kind: Retry + Home always; Search for '<host>' and
Register-on-Sirius where a host is present; Tor guide link on
unreachable.
- Address bar keeps the failed URL (refreshTabUrl already skips
file://) so the user can edit and retry.
- Ignorable codes (-3 ABORTED, -20 BLOCKED_BY_CLIENT, subframe
errors, internalNav) skipped so normal user actions don't paint
an error page.

Chromium's default 'This site can't be reached' replaced with a Theseus-
themed error page. did-fail-load on every tab's webContents (main frame
only, non-ignorable code) routes the tab to error.html with the
attempt URL, host, error code, and description as query params. The
page keeps t.url pointing at the failed URL so the address bar shows
what the user typed and they can edit + retry - refreshTabUrl's
existing file:// skip means the error page's own path never leaks
back into the bar.
Five kinds, chosen by pickErrorKind(code, host):
name-not-registered BCNR-eligible host + ERR_NAME_NOT_RESOLVED.
Says "no BCDN record on chain, no clearnet host
either." Offers Register on Sirius + Search +
Retry + Home.
name-unreachable ERR_NAME_NOT_RESOLVED on a non-BCNR host. DNS
failed - offers Retry + Search + Register +
Home.
unreachable CONN_REFUSED/RESET/TIMED_OUT/CLOSED/NETWORK_CHANGED.
Offers Retry + Tor guide + Home.
tls ERR_CERT_* range (-200..-299). Offers Retry +
Home.
generic Everything else.
home-preload.js gains `window.errorpage` alongside `window.home`. Both
APIs are sender-URL-gated in main - a random page seeing the shape
can't invoke them (isErrorPageSender / isHomePageSender). The external-
open handler additionally allowlists Silent Mode domains only.
package.json build.files gets error.html + error-preload.js so
electron-builder actually bundles them (GOTCHAS rule: an unlisted
runtime-loaded file silently opens blank).
Ship pages (releases-manifest.json, tools/index.html, releases/index.html,
site-theseus-x/index.html) updated to 0.1.3 with the new hashes.
DEPLOY STATUS - blocked on VPS SSH: my IP was hit with a full-port ban
mid-turn (likely fail2ban from the burst of scp during the 0.1.0-0.1.2
iterations). Site pages/manifest/installers are committed locally but
NOT yet on dl.silentmode.st or the Sia mirror. Live still reads 0.1.2.
User needs to unban 195.184.247.106 on their end, or wait for the ban
to expire, before the ship pages match reality.
Previous version was a 100ms bounce to code.silentmode.st — user never saw
hephaestus.x/forge/ content, just a flash. New version is a real catalog page:
- Fetches public repo list live from Forgejo's API on page load
- Renders each repo as a card with name, owner, description, updated date,
clickable to code.silentmode.st/<owner>/<repo> when the user chooses
- Falls back to a "browse directly at code.silentmode.st" hint on API error
- Includes the git clone URL patterns (HTTPS-with-PAT and SSH-2222) inline
Enabled CORS on Forgejo so hephaestus.x (served from a different origin)
can hit /api/v1/repos/search — Access-Control-Allow-Origin: *, methods
GET+HEAD only, no credentials. That's the minimum for public listings and
matches how the API is meant to be used.
/forgejo/ is a byte-identical alias.
hephaestus.x is its own thing — not a subpage of silentmode.st. Previously
the BCNR record redirected straight to code.silentmode.st (dropping visitors
at the login screen cold) or to /hephaestus/ on silentmode.st (which
inherited the full silentmode nav bar of unrelated products).
- New standalone landing at site/hephaestus.x/index.html — its own compact
page, no silentmode.st chrome, just a mark + tagline + three key facts +
"where it lives" spec table, one small "A tool from Silent Mode" footer.
- /forge/index.html and /forgejo/index.html — instant redirects to
code.silentmode.st for users who type hephaestus.x/forge in the bar.
- BCNR record updated to {"s3":"bns/hephaestus.x/"} — navigate.st gateway
serves the content directly from the Sia bucket (same pattern deviant.x
uses). TXID 69686a03c66cc1f661c84c50107a8660055c629f0393c9bb6802773d3c0a7108.
Docs page at silentmode.st/hephaestus/ stays put — that one lives in the
silentmode.st family with its full nav, targeting Silent Mode visitors
exploring the whole stack. hephaestus.x/ is for direct hephaestus visitors.
The section content was already about running the sign-in without a real
browser — the "AI" framing was a leftover from how the misdiagnoses first
surfaced. Rename to be tool-neutral: any CLI, CI job, curl-with-cookies,
Playwright, Puppeteer, or scripted client hits the same trap and benefits
from the same URL routing table and smoke-test snippets.
Also, hephaestus.x BCNR record updated (via Argus CLI) to point at the docs
landing page instead of straight-to-forge — users typing the name now get
docs + a "Sign in with wallet" button, not the login screen cold.

Copy-only change to the installer's Ariadne page: names the mechanism
BCDN — Bitcoin Cash Domain Names — in the body text instead of listing
example TLDs. Reads more clearly to a first-time visitor who might not
know that ".bch" and ".x" are the same registry.

Ariadne install UX: promoted from an end-of-install MessageBox popup to
a dedicated wizard page. nsis/installer.nsh replaces the MessageBox
customInstall with a `Page custom` (nsDialogs) that shows FIRST in the
install flow (electron-builder's INCLUDE hook is placed above its own
MUI_PAGE_* inserts and NSIS processes page directives in file order —
that is the earliest hook we have without editing the template).
Framed as "Options" so it reads naturally as a preamble.
The page:
Header: "Optional add-ons"
Body: A 4-line explanation of Ariadne's Thread and the trade-off.
Checkbox: "Install Ariadne's Thread (recommended)" — pre-checked.
Footer: Notes the UAC prompt and that Theseus install continues.
Skipped entirely (Abort) if Ariadne is already installed. State is
saved from AriadnePageLeave into $InstallAriadneFlag; customInstall
runs the chain-installer iff BST_CHECKED.
Uninstall side unchanged (still MessageBox — a full custom uninstall
page would be overkill for one Y/N during a rare event).
Also carries 1e5d670: don't re-route same-origin navigations through
navigateTab. Was silently breaking every site whose in-page form
POSTs — Startpage's search box submits to /do/search via POST, and
navigateTab -> loadURL always GETs, dropping the body. Same-origin
navigations now stay on Chromium's native path.
Deployed: scp + sia-upload of both trees. Verified HEAD 200 on the
installer, live manifest reads 0.1.1 2026-08-31, VPS hashes match.
0.1.0 (never deployed for long — same-day iteration) is preserved
in _prev/ for rollback.
gateway/public-gateway.mjs:
* GET /api/holdings/<scripthash> and POST /api/holdings {scripthashes:[…]}
— server-side wallet-holdings lookup for the portal. Bns-indexer is
beacon-only so it can't answer listunspent for arbitrary addresses; the
gateway does the electrum roundtrip and cross-joins with the cached BCNR
index. Client posts scripthashes (no libauth needed on the server) and
gets back the names owned.
* elConnect now falls through to whole-buffer JSON.parse when a Fulcrum
response lacks a trailing newline — chipnet.bch.ninja does this and
otherwise every elCall to it times out. Same tolerance pattern as
bns-indexer.test.mjs's tiny electrum client.
* verifyElectrum picks a full electrum with a 3s server.version probe so a
hung server fails over to the next in seconds instead of stalling 20.
* Skips silentmode.st/electrum and coinspectrum.duckdns.org:50011 for
/api/holdings — both are bns-indexer routes that don't do listunspent.
web/register-entry.js: export addressToScripthash so the portal can derive
the scripthash for each of its wallet's watched addresses before POSTing.
Browser bundle rebuilt.
site-sirius-x pages:
* favicon + logo hrefs made relative (./assets/… on index/portal,
../assets/… on docs/theseus). Absolute /sirius-x/… broke on the sirius.x
BCNR route where the site is served from root instead of under /sirius-x/.
* Roadmap nav link added back to portal, docs, theseus — the landing has an
anchor to a section on itself, so subpages now link to it explicitly.
* portal.html: loadNames rewritten to POST scripthashes to /api/holdings
instead of doing client-side electrum. Works on browsers whose networks
block chipnet electrum ports; same-origin HTTPS on 443.
* portal.html: bundle import ?v= bumped so Chrome's in-memory ES module
map picks up the new bundle instead of a stale cached copy.
Two brand kits, one design language. Each site now has a /brand/ page + a
favicon; every page I own on silentmode.st links the SVG favicon (parallel
sessions can add the same line to Sirius/Hephaestus/Choose when they touch
those files).
Silent Mode kit (site/brand/, site/favicon.svg):
Mark — two interlocking chain links, one muted (#8b98a9) + one acid
(#d6ff3d). The umbrella family mark.
Logo, wordmark, avatar (400x400 social), banner (1500x500 social header).
Brand page shows every asset with SVG download, colour palette
(tokens matching shared.css), usage do's and don'ts.
navigate.st kit (navigate.st/brand/, navigate.st/favicon.svg):
Mark — compass rose (N acid, other points muted) inside a chain-link
ring. Ring keeps it in the Silent Mode family without cloning the
SilentMode mark; compass says what this specific site is (the
wayfinding front door).
Same asset set: logo, wordmark, avatar, banner. Standalone brand page
(no shared.css — navigate.st runs single-file).
nginx (VPS): added two locations to sites-enabled/navigate-st so /favicon.svg
and /brand/* resolve from /opt/silent-mode/navigate-brand/. Rollback point
at sites-enabled/navigate-st.bak.1788146513. silentmode.st serves both from
disk under /opt/silent-mode/site/ — no vhost change needed.
Verified live: all favicon + brand URLs return 200 on both hosts.

Bundled AriadneResolver-Setup-0.1.0.exe (9ab725be, unchanged 0.1.0)
Version 0.0.9 -> 0.1.0 marks the "Silent Mode = one install" milestone:
Theseus and the system-wide Ariadne resolver now ship together.
nsis/installer.nsh (electron-builder `nsis.include`) hooks two macros:
customInstall -- If Ariadne's Thread is NOT already installed,
MessageBox MB_YESNO|MB_DEFBUTTON1 asks whether
to install it now. On Yes, chain-invokes the
bundled Inno installer with
/VERYSILENT /SUPPRESSMSGBOXES /NORESTART
(Ariadne raises its own UAC because Inno declares
PrivilegesRequired=admin). Ariadne being present
already suppresses the prompt on upgrades.
customUnInstall -- Reads Ariadne's UninstallString from HKLM 64-bit
Uninstall\{...ARIADNERSLVR}_is1. If present,
symmetric MessageBox asks whether to remove it
too, then ExecWaits the string with the same
silent flags. Skips silently if Ariadne isn't
installed.
Registry probe uses SetRegView 64 (Ariadne installs 64-bit per
ArchitecturesInstallIn64BitMode=x64compatible in its .iss). Reset to
`lastused` after each probe to leave electron-builder's own state
unchanged.
Package changes:
- version 0.0.9 -> 0.1.0
- build.extraResources adds build/AriadneResolver-Setup-0.1.0.exe
(unpacked to $INSTDIR/resources/); build/ stays gitignored - the
binary is regenerated by copying from AriadneResolver's Inno output
- build.nsis.include -> nsis/installer.nsh
Size: installer 122 MB (+25 MB for bundled Ariadne), portable 122 MB.
Portable also carries the Ariadne exe as a side effect of extraResources
being global; portable can't invoke an installer, so the 25 MB is dead
weight there - future rev could scope extraResources per-target.
Site updates: tools page + releases page + theseus.x landing all
reflect the 0.1.0 hashes, sizes, and the new "Ariadne's Thread bundled"
line. tools page's "Coming to the Windows installer" footnote is
rewritten past tense because it landed.
Deployed:
- scp installers + releases-manifest.json to /opt/silent-mode/dl/
- scp tools/ + releases/ index pages to /opt/silent-mode/site/
- sia-upload of ../site and ../site-theseus-x
- verified HEAD 200, manifest reports 0.1.0 2026-08-31, VPS hashes
match local
Existing 0.0.6 (or newer) installs will surface 0.1.0 in the update
chip on next launch.
navigate.st: the 'theseus.x' card flips from pending placeholder to a
real card with href="/bns/theseus.x" and a b-sia source badge - the
name is on-chain, records point at bns/theseus/ on Sia.
silentmode.st/tools: the relay demo table gains a theseus.x row; the
flagship footnotes gain an "Also on the chain" line pointing to
theseus.x. The 'Coming to the Windows installer' footnote also gains
the uninstall-prompt half of the flow.
theseus.x landing: the 'Nothing to install elsewhere' card is now
'System-wide, optional' and describes the intended bundled-Ariadne
flow (recommended-on checkbox during install, prompt-to-remove during
uninstall, resolver named 'Ariadne's Thread' for users). Copy no
longer contradicts the design doc.
Deployed: sia-upload of both ../site (silentmode.bch mirror) and
../site-theseus-x (Sia bucket bns/theseus/); scp of navigate-apex.html
+ tools/index.html to the VPS. Verified navigate.st shows theseus.x,
silentmode.st/tools mentions it twice, silentmode.bch/tools mirror
matches.
Bundling implementation itself (NSIS chain-install of Ariadne + the
uninstall prompt) is still TODO - copy states the finished flow.
Memory: theseus-bundles-ariadne.md captures the design so the next
session doesn't drift.
Site:
- Rename the "Tools" nav label to "Theseus" on every subpage. URL slug
/tools/ is kept intact so bookmarks and cross-links survive; the page's
own title + h1 rename to Theseus; homepage product card retitled.
- Remove the /tlds/ self-nav entry so its 7-item header matches every
other subpage (was 8 items, causing the same "header rearranges" glitch
Hephaestus had before).
Auth-proxy (fixes reported by a concurrent session working with a chipnet
wallet):
- verify.ts now auto-detects the CashAddr prefix (bitcoincash, bchtest,
bchreg) instead of hardcoding "bitcoincash". Chipnet wallets sign the
same message with the same key but display bchtest: addresses; the old
code compared their claim against a re-encoded bitcoincash: version and
always rejected. Same key material, different envelope.
- /challenge accepts any of the three known prefixes at the input gate.
- /verify accepts an optional `state` param in the request body — used as
a fallback if the challenge record didn't carry one (which happens when
a scripted caller runs the /verify step without passing state through
/challenge). Ensures RFC 6749 §4.1.2 compliance: the OAuth callback URL
always echoes state when the client provided one.
Every silentmode.st subpage was missing Hephaestus in its topnav, so clicking
Hephaestus from the homepage led to a page whose nav had a different item set —
looked like the header "rearranged and dropped tabs" mid-navigation.
- Add <a href="../hephaestus/">Hephaestus</a> between Sirius and Helios on:
tools, prometheus, sirius, helios, hermes, releases, tlds
- Normalize hephaestus/index.html to use relative paths (../foo/) matching the
convention used by every other subpage — was absolute (/foo/)
- Result: every page has 7 identical nav items in the same order, with
class="here" on whichever section you're viewing. /hephaestus/ keeps its
"Open forge →" CTA appended (an addition, not a reorder).
The docs page had a truncated & reordered nav (Tools, Sirius, Hermes) that
dropped Prometheus + Helios and put Hephaestus in the wrong slot. Clicking
"Hephaestus" from the homepage nav appeared to "rearrange" the header because
the destination page's nav was a different set.
Match the homepage nav 1:1 — Tools, Prometheus, Sirius, Hephaestus, Helios,
Hermes — with the "here" highlight on Hephaestus and the "Open forge" CTA
appended at the far right. Same items in the same order = stable header
across navigations.

and natively at hephaestus.x in any BCNR-aware browser.
Bns-indexer on VPS was only exposed on port 50011 via nginx, which corporate
firewalls, mobile carriers, and many VPNs block. Added an nginx location on
443 that proxies to the same 127.0.0.1:50010, giving us a browser-friendly
WSS endpoint on the standard HTTPS port.
* lib/electrum.js CHIPNET_ELECTRUM: wss://silentmode.st/electrum listed
first (used by registrar.connect() + everything that depends on it).
* lib/resolver-web.js CHIPNET_ELECTRUM: same, kept in lockstep per the
"change both together" comment.
* bns-register.js bundle rebuilt to bake the new list.
* portal.html imports the bundle with ?v= so Chrome's in-memory ES-module
map doesn't serve a stale copy across tabs.
Portal now connects successfully; next remaining issue is that
bns-indexer only supports (server.version, get_history, transaction.get) —
`blockchain.scripthash.listunspent` for wallet address queries is not
implemented, so the "list your names" step fails there. Follow-up: add a
GET /api/holdings/<address> to public-gateway.mjs backed by the existing
BCHN electrum access, so the portal can pull holdings over plain HTTP.
Someone hitting the deployed instance recently reported the wallet-auth
front-end as broken based on two mistakes:
(a) mistook the 510-byte login shell for a stub (it's an SPA bootstrap
that renders the UI via a JS module client-side), and
(b) tried /static/wallet.js instead of /auth/static/wallet.js, missing
the Caddy path-prefix routing.
Add an explicit section with:
- URL table showing exactly which service serves each path
- curl snippets for smoke-testing the flow without a browser
- Note that /api/v1/user requires an API token (not a session cookie),
so a 401 there does not mean "not signed in"
- Guidance for headless / AI-driven browser sessions
Aims to head off the same misdiagnosis pattern from future sessions.
.hub and .os seeded on the chipnet TLD beacon (~2,600 sats) and added to the
public registrar. .dea (already on-chain via a concurrent session) also
surfaced in the TLDS array so its second-level names become registerable —
consistent with the "if it's on-chain, offer it" default.
portal.html: fix "t is not iterable" by passing (electrum, addresses) to
BNS.getUtxosForAddresses instead of (addresses); open one BNS.connect() and
share it across the UTXO scan and the buildIndex. Sign-in itself already
worked (wallet unlocks, address populates) — the crash was in the subsequent
names load. Ships a clearer network-blocked error too when the browser can't
reach chipnet electrum ports (50004/50011/62002).
- Nav link between Sirius (live) and Helios (designed) — keeps live things adjacent
- Product card with p-live pill (Hephaestus is running at code.silentmode.st today)
- Meta description updated to include Hephaestus in the catalog
- New site/hephaestus/index.html — full docs (user quickstart, git push, architecture,
wallet-auth protocol, operator self-host guide with the gotchas we hit)
Both silentmode.st and silentmode.bch serve from the same bucket path so this one
edit updates both. Files also copied into /opt/silent-mode/site/ on the silentmode VPS.

Version bumped 0.0.8 -> 0.0.9 because the prior 0.0.7 and 0.0.8
"Ship ..." commits (f464de6, 1a3b232, ed9ec18) never actually
deployed - the live manifest at dl.silentmode.st still served 0.0.6
until this commit. Bumping the number preserves version->hash 1:1:
this 0.0.9 is the FIRST post-0.0.6 binary that ever went public.
Cumulative content:
- 0.0.7 warm-start from bundled BNS snapshot + 30-s background delta
refresh + Sia snapshot pull on boot (first .bch page opens
near-instantly, index stays fresh while browser runs).
- 0.0.8 window.bcnr read-only dApp API on every page (resolveName,
isRegistered, getBcnrTlds, getRecordVersion). Permission
origins now scope to eTLD+1 via the Public Suffix List
(same rule Chromium uses for cookies/storage).
- 0.0.9 Address-picker paints the picked URL in the address bar
immediately (was leaving the typed prefix while the target
loaded). Reload keys wired end-to-end: F5 / Ctrl+R soft,
Ctrl+Shift+R / Ctrl+F5 hard, Shift-click the toolbar reload
does hard too.
Deployed:
- scp installers + releases-manifest.json to /opt/silent-mode/dl/
- scp tools/ + releases/ index pages to /opt/silent-mode/site/
- sia-upload of ../site to bns/silentmode/
- verified: dl.silentmode.st HEAD 200 on the installer, manifest
reports 0.0.9 2026-08-31, VPS hashes match, both silentmode.st and
silentmode.bch tools pages show 0.0.9 buttons.
Existing 0.0.6 installs will surface the update chip on next launch.
Merges a parallel session's work with the multi-source BNS story from 0.0.7.
The dApp side (parallel session)
--------------------------------
* bcnr-preload.js — installs `window.bcnr` on every page via contextBridge.
Read-only surface: resolveName(name), isRegistered(name), getBcnrTlds(),
getRecordVersion(name), plus getPermissionOrigin() for diagnostics. All
Promises; a missing name returns null (not throw). No signing, no wallet
unlock — that surface is designed but deliberately out of scope for 0.0.8
(see TheseusNavigator/DESIGN-integrated-wallet.md).
* bcnr-origin.js — pure function that computes the eTLD+1 permission origin
for a URL. ICANN suffixes via `psl` (same PSL Chromium uses, handles
.co.uk / .github.io / etc); BNS names key off the on-chain TLD list so
foo.wallet becomes a public suffix as soon as `wallet` appears there.
Match browser cookie / MetaMask semantics: a grant on pay.merchant.com
covers account.merchant.com but not evil.com.
* dev/bcnr-selftest.js, dev/origin-selftest.mjs — self-tests, no I/O.
* main.js wires bcnr-preload.js into session.defaultSession.setPreloads() so
it runs BEFORE per-WebContentsView preloads; adds bcnr:* IPC handlers.
* preload.js + chrome.html — small hooks so the shell picks up window.bcnr
the same way regular content does.
* package.json — psl dep, bcnr-preload.js/bcnr-origin.js in `files`.
Also included
-------------
* AriadneResolver/mobile/.../UpdateCheck.java — in-app update-check for the
Android app; already active in the shipped 0.11 APK (build.ps1 -Recurse
picked it up), formalising the source now.
* TheseusNavigator/snapshots/bns-name-snapshot.json — refreshed bundled
starter (73 beacon txs, root c37b8596…c54e414ba).
* Site pages + manifest updated to point at 0.0.8.

Mobile parity with Theseus 0.0.7's multi-source model, one source at a time.
Ships:
* Bns.pullSiaIndex() — fetches dl.silentmode.st/bns-name-index.json (the
operator's latest published interpreted BNS snapshot) on a background
thread. Installs the result as the current index + persists to disk cache
when we don't already have something fresher. Best-effort: silent on
failure, on-device electrum still runs.
* MainActivity fires the pull once per applyResolverSettings(), racing the
bundled starter + on-device electrum. The bundled starter wins the very
first navigation (already in memory); the Sia pull wins any subsequent
cold start after an operator publish; electrum wins steady-state via the
existing INDEX_TTL_MS refresh.
* publish-name-mirror.mjs now uploads three shapes to Sia (raw snapshot,
raw immutable, mobile-shape floating, mobile-shape immutable) AND scps
the mobile-shape floating pointer to the CDN so anonymous clients can
actually GET it. The s3.silentmode.st bucket rejects anon reads today;
the CDN copy is the workaround, same bytes.
* Cannot use Sia direct for now: s3d bucket policy blocks anon reads.
Documented in Bns.SIA_INDEX_URL — swap URL when the policy changes.
Version bump: 0.10 → 0.11 (versionCode 11, versionName 0.11).
Also: .gitignore TheseusNavigator/_prev/ — the ~372 MB local rollback dir
that kept appearing as untracked in every git status.

Site + manifest updates for the two published artifacts. Both live at
dl.silentmode.st; Sia mirror updated for the operator-published snapshot

Fixes a partial-update bug in the previous "Ship 0.0.7" pass — the
Windows verify-box and Android section on tools/index.html still carried
the 0.0.6 / 0.8 hashes even though the download URLs had been rewritten.
Bundled beacon snapshot at build time (73 txs, root c37b859682…), background
delta-refresh loop every 30 s, Sia-snapshot pull on boot for the next launch,
ensureIndex fallback for very first launches.

Broad-scope commit sweeping in work from parallel sessions plus this session's
dev-only utilities. No single unifying theme — this is the "commit everything
that's ready" pass. Grouped by area below.
AriadneResolver / mobile
* Small updates to BchFetcher, Bns, MainActivity, AriadneVpnService, and the
Android manifest — from a parallel mobile-resolver session.
* AriadneResolver/mobile/webpreview/ — new local dev webview (index.html +
server.mjs) for iterating on the mobile UI without a device.
Email / SnappyMail
* Email/snappymail-plugin/silentmode-addresses — new SnappyMail plugin
(README, CSS, PHP entry, JS) for surfacing @silentmode.st address
management inside the webmail UI.
Hephaestus (Forgejo + auth-proxy)
* auth-proxy/src/oidc.ts + docker-compose.yml updates.
* scripts/bootstrap-auth.sh — idempotent script that registers the wallet
auth-proxy as Forgejo's OIDC provider after `docker compose up -d`. All
secrets read from .env — no literals in the script.
TheseusNavigator / dev tools
* dev/list-tlds.mjs — enumerate every registered BNS name grouped by TLD via
our own indexer.
* dev/show-tlds-bch.mjs — dump the full records payload of the legacy
tlds.bch name (kept as a diagnostic for the list-in-one-NFT era).
Deviant sites + brand
* site/deviant/ — new microsites (anthemus, potidaea, brand, mindmap, main
index) plus the full brand kit under site/deviant/brand/ (logos, icons,
palette, social exports as SVG source + PNG renders).
* site-sirius-x/portal.html — updates.
Coordination
* _coordination/sessions/mobile-resolver.md — parallel-session notes.
Deliberately excluded from this commit:
* scratchpad/ — this session's temp drafts (Sia doc mockups, tlds UPD payloads).
* TheseusNavigator/_prev/ — ~372 MB of prior release binaries; belongs in
a separate artefacts store, not the git tree. Add to .gitignore next pass.
