# Theseus Navigator
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The browser — the consumer face of the stack. Native `.bch` support with the
|
||
|
|
resolver built in, so a user installs **one app** instead of modifying their
|
||
|
|
operating system. Named for the thread through the labyrinth: the chain is the
|
||
|
|
thread.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Scope
|
||
|
|
- Electron shell (Chromium engine, no forking): tabs, address bar, history.
|
||
|
|
- **In-process `.bch` resolution** — no system daemon, no NRPT, no OS
|
||
|
|
trust-store changes; reuses `bns.js` from the BNS repo as a library.
|
||
|
|
- Record handling: `h` render, `ip` connect, `p`/`s3` via in-app gateway,
|
||
|
|
`u` redirect.
|
||
|
|
- **TLS via cert-verify hook** (Electron `setCertificateVerifyProc`) against the
|
||
|
|
BNS root / on-chain `tls` fingerprints — no OS store touched.
|
||
|
|
- **Provenance indicator**: shows whether a page came from the chain / Sia / a
|
||
|
|
direct server, with NFT category and record type — the decentralized padlock.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Status: not started
|
||
|
|
Build it in its own session/repo. The ready-to-paste brief is
|
||
|
|
**`BROWSER-PROMPT.md`** (a reference copy in this folder; canonical source is
|
||
|
|
`D:\Dev\NameCoin\BROWSER-PROMPT.md` — if they diverge, NameCoin wins). It points
|
||
|
|
here and reuses the resolver core. `theseus.bch` is registered and should
|
||
|
|
eventually serve the browser's own homepage over the protocol it implements.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Roadmap
