Gateway (Argus/src/gateway/public-gateway.mjs): PUT /api/ext/<name>/<id>/<version> takes the gzipped tar, checks two BCH message signatures against the name's current NFT owner (one authorises the upload, one is stored in the channel), inspects the package (addon.json at the root, id/version/main match, 8 MB cap), enforces first-publisher ownership of an id and monotonic versions, and writes the tarball, the extension's updates.json and community/catalog.json to Sia. GET /api/ext/catalog reads the catalog back with CORS. Theseus: lib/publisher-sig.mjs recovers the signer of a channel entry; main.js compares it with the publisher name's owner from Theseus's own chain index before installing or updating, so neither the relay nor a tampered catalog can pass off code under a trusted name. addon-updater.js gains installCommunity() and accepts publisher-signed entries in the regular update check (operator Ed25519 entries unchanged).

feat: community extensions — publish with a BCDN name, install from Settings, theseus.x catalog Anyone who owns a BCDN name can now publish a Theseus extension, and every Theseus can install it with the publisher's signature verified locally. Gateway (Argus/src/gateway/public-gateway.mjs): PUT /api/ext/<name>/<id>/<version> takes the gzipped tar, checks two BCH message signatures against the name's current NFT owner (one authorises the upload, one is stored in the channel), inspects the package (addon.json at the root, id/version/main match, 8 MB cap), enforces first-publisher ownership of an id and monotonic versions, and writes the tarball, the extension's updates.json and community/catalog.json to Sia. GET /api/ext/catalog reads the catalog back with CORS. Theseus: lib/publisher-sig.mjs recovers the signer of a channel entry; main.js compares it with the publisher name's owner from Theseus's own chain index before installing or updating, so neither the relay nor a tampered catalog can pass off code under a trusted name. addon-updater.js gains installCommunity() and accepts publisher-signed entries in the regular update check (operator Ed25519 entries unchanged). Settings › Extensions shows the community catalog with Install / Update; Settings › Plug-ins links to theseus.x/plug-ins. theseus.x: /plug-ins/ is a separate page for the first-party plug-ins (Aegis, Ariadne's Thread) with live versions and hashes; /extensions/ lists the bundled extensions, the community catalog, and how to build and publish; /extensions/publish/ signs and uploads a package in the browser with the wallet that holds the publisher's name (session helper + wallet bundle copied alongside).

<section id="updates">
<h2>How updates work</h2>
<p class="lede">Same mechanism a Firefox XPI update uses, cut down to what a name-native browser needs.</p>
<div class="flow">
<ol>
<li>Every 30 seconds after boot Theseus fetches <code>updates.json</code> for each installed add-on that declares an <code>updateURL</code> in its manifest.</li>
<li>Each entry carries an Ed25519 signature over <code>silentmode.addon-update-v1|&lt;id&gt;|&lt;version&gt;|&lt;sha256&gt;</code>. Theseus verifies against a small set of operator public keys baked into the build. Unsigned or badly-signed entries are dropped silently.</li>
<li>If a signed version beats what's installed, Theseus downloads the tarball, re-checks its sha256, and stages the new copy under <code>&lt;userData&gt;/addons-updates-staged/&lt;id&gt;-&lt;version&gt;/</code>.</li>
<li>On the next Theseus launch, <code>promoteStagedUpdates</code> moves the staged copy into <code>addons/&lt;id&gt;/</code>. Any prior copy is renamed to <code>addons-backups/&lt;id&gt;-&lt;oldver&gt;-&lt;timestamp&gt;/</code> so hand-edits survive.</li>
<li>Settings › Extensions has a <b>Check for updates</b> button and shows what is staged; first-party plug-ins (Aegis) can also stage and restart from their own panel.</li>
</ol>
</div>

<h2>Operator key</h2>
<p class="lede">The Ed25519 public key baked into Theseus 0.3.19+.
Rotation is by adding a new pubkey and shipping a Theseus release that carries both, then a follow-up release removing the old — during the overlap, entries can be signed by either.</p>

<h2>Roadmap</h2>
<p class="lede">The endpoint is generic — any bundled add-on can advertise an <code>updateURL</code>.
Concrete next-steps:</p>
<ul style="color:var(--mut);font-size:14px;line-height:1.7">
<li>On-BCNR pubkey publication so rotation is auditable end-to-end.</li>
<li>Multi-sig (N-of-M operator keys) so a single compromised private key can't push code.</li>
<li>Extend the channel to <b>Notepad</b> (bundled, no channel yet).</li>
