Ship Theseus 0.0.8: window.bcnr dApp API + eTLD+1 permission origins 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.

// bcnr-preload.js — session-wide preload that installs `window.bcnr` on every
// page (regular tabs, popups, chrome/settings/etc). Reads only — no signing,
// no wallet unlock, no permission prompts. These four methods query the same
// resolver Theseus already runs for its address bar; nothing about the local
// user leaks, so no origin gate is needed for this surface.
//
// Sequencing: registered via `session.defaultSession.setPreloads([...])` in
// main.js at whenReady, which runs BEFORE per-WebContentsView preloads (home,
// settings, popover, etc.), so those preloads still install their own bridges
// on top of `window.bcnr`. See DESIGN-integrated-wallet.md §3 for the full
// API surface.

// registered comes back as `null` (not an error) so page code can treat
// "no such name" as data, not an exception. `getBcnrTlds` always returns
// an array — even the seed ["bch"] before the on-chain list has landed.

feat(theseus): install a site as an app, the way Chrome and Edge offer it Electron ships Chromium's renderer without the browser-side web-app install machinery, so beforeinstallprompt never fires and every site's own "Install our app" chip (coin-spectrum.com's, for one) stays hidden in Theseus. The browser side now exists: - webapps.js reads a page's <link rel="manifest">, accepts it when it names an app with a standalone-style display mode and a start_url on the page's origin, and records the descriptor on the tab. - The address bar shows an install chip for such pages (filled once the app is installed: click then opens or removes it); the page context menu carries the same entry. - Pages get a synthetic beforeinstallprompt whose prompt() routes to the Theseus install dialog and resolves userChoice like Chrome, and an appinstalled event afterwards, so sites' own chips appear and work. - Installing stores the app under <userData>/webapps/, wraps the manifest icon into an .ico, writes a Start Menu (optionally desktop) shortcut that launches Theseus with --app=<start_url>, and opens the app in a chromeless window with its own taskbar identity. The window shares the session, BCNR resolution, fingerprint and add-on bridges with tabs; popups and "open in Theseus" go to the browser window, Alt+arrows / F5 / Ctrl+R cover navigation without a toolbar. - Theseus takes the single-instance lock so a shortcut launch lands in the running browser (second-instance) instead of a second profile owner; launched cold, --app= opens only the app window and a later plain launch brings the browser window back.

// on window; the page only ever sees Chrome's event shape. Top frame only.
