Assets was one list holding two different kinds of thing. A fungible balance
answers "how much do I have"; a non-fungible one answers "which ones do I
hold", and they want different rows — an amount against a symbol, versus a
commitment and a capability. On a real chipnet wallet that meant 46 rows
where 32 of them were only ever going to say "1 NFT".
Split by what each category actually holds, so a category carrying both
appears in both — which is honest, because it really does hold both. Assets
counts categories; Certificates counts individual certificates, since "3"
should mean three things you hold rather than three groups.
Certificate rows carry the commitment, because it is the only thing that
distinguishes two certificates of the same category, and a MINTING or MUTABLE
tag, because "can still issue others" versus "is fixed" is worth seeing
without opening anything. A `none` capability is left unlabelled rather than
adding noise to every row.
"Certificates", not "NFTs": these are membership, licence and record tokens,
and NFT carries collectible-market baggage that misdescribes them. Ids and
data keys stay `nft` — that is the CashTokens protocol field, so it is
protocol name inside and product name on screen.
Two things caught while building it. `draw({})` was overwriting the "no
assets" empty state with an empty string, which is now the common case since
purely-non-fungible categories no longer appear there. And certificate rows
printed the category twice, as the title and again on the right — the right
column now only carries it when the row has a real name to lead with.
Metadata is looked up for every category, not just the fungible ones, so
naming a token also names its certificates.
The Receive tab carried two stacked toggle rows: Receive/Consolidate above
Address & QR/Assets. That is a lot of chrome for a 380px panel, and the two
rows were not the same kind of thing — Address and Assets are views of the
wallet, while consolidating is an action on its UTXO set. Consolidate now
sits with the other address actions, beside "Next unused address", with the
sibling count on the button.
The old toggle was also the only way out of the consolidate view, so that
view gains its own "← Back to address". Entering still resets the inline host
so the preview is costed fresh, which is what the toggle did.
The Send tab keeps its Send/Consolidate toggle: there, consolidating really
is an alternative way to send, so a toggle is the right shape.
Removed the two now-dead [data-rcv-mode] blocks rather than leaving selectors
that match nothing.
Verified by real visibility rather than the hidden attribute — a child of a
hidden parent keeps hidden=false, which made a first check look like both
panes were showing at once. rcvNormal and the address pane go away while the
consolidate pane shows, and Back restores them.
Two changes to the same idea: one way to do each thing, and the same shape
for every coin.
**Assets is no longer buried under the QR.** The Receive body stacked
address → QR → assets in one column, so in a 380px panel the token list sat
permanently below the fold behind 200px of QR — and a coin holding no tokens
simply lost a section, which made every coin look structurally different.
Address & QR and Assets are now peers behind a persistent chip row. The count
rides on the chip, and a wallet with nothing says "No assets held by this
wallet" instead of the section vanishing. That mattered more than it sounds:
a chipnet wallet with 46 CashToken categories was indistinguishable from an
empty one until 0.15.0, because the only signal was an absent card.
The choice persists across re-renders and wallet switches — comparing token
balances between wallets should not throw you back to the QR on every click.
Switching back to Address redraws the QR, since a canvas sized while hidden
comes out blank and renderReceive only repaints when the address changes.
**The coin row's ▾ network dropdown is gone.** The coin view already carries
real network chips (data-browse-net: they filter the wallet list and show a
per-network count), so the popover was a second control for one job — and the
only one that hid its options behind a click. Chips are the single network
control now and the ticker is plain text again.
Verified in the panel: chips switch panes and track their own state, the
count shows, the empty state reads correctly, the QR survives the round trip,
and no .wchev / .wcname.wswitchable remain in the DOM.
Import accepts a picture of a QR code. The file is decoded in the panel by
the vendored jsQR, drawn to a canvas: no upload, no network, no camera.
Image, not camera, on purpose. Theseus sets blockCamera + hideMediaDevices
by default and hides device labels from fingerprinting; a camera scanner
would fail silently for everyone until they turned that off globally, and a
wallet should not be the reason a privacy browser gives up the camera. A
photo or screenshot of the code needs no permission at all.
What comes back is classified, never trusted. A QR is opaque to the person
holding it, and "scan this to restore your wallet" is a working phish, so
the decode only chooses which field to fill:
BIP39-shaped (12/15/18/21/24 lowercase words) -> mnemonic field
WIF or 32-byte hex -> private key field
anything else -> nothing is filled; the
decoded text is shown so
the user can see it was a
URL, an address, or junk
Nothing auto-submits. The user reads what landed in the box and presses
Import, and the host handler still does the real validation.
jsQR 1.4.0 is vendored at lib/jsqr.js under Apache-2.0 with its LICENSE
beside it, unmodified and unminified — code that touches seed phrases should
be auditable in the shipped add-on, not an opaque blob. It is 57 KB gzipped.
Verified by round-tripping through the shipped path: Aegis's own encoder
builds the QR, it is rasterised to a real PNG File, and decodeQrFile() reads
it back byte-exact; an image with no code returns null rather than throwing;
and driving the actual file input fills the mnemonic for a seed, fills the
key field for a WIF, and leaves every field untouched for a phishing URL.
The 380px panel is the wrong shape for anything that needs room. This opens
the wallet as a full Theseus tab, with the sidebar's own furniture — identity,
network, balance, section nav, wallet list — laid out as a left rail and the
tab body given to the selected section.
It is the SAME panel.html, loaded with ?surface=web. No second wallet, no
second copy of 4,600 lines to drift apart. That works because an add-on's own
tab is handed a window.silentmode with the same invoke/on surface as the
sidebar, and addon-msg dispatches it as from:"panel" with the add-on identity
derived from the file:// sender — so every existing handler, including the
panel-only ones, works there untouched. The whole change is a CSS grid behind
one attribute plus a chip to open it.
Details that needed care:
- The QR is drag-sized against a 380px panel and the size is remembered.
Given a 720px column it filled the page, so it is capped on this surface
only; the stored sidebar preference is left exactly as the user set it.
- #drop (the coin picker sheet) is fixed-position and sized for the panel;
it is pinned to the rail instead of covering the window.
- Content columns are capped at 720px so forms and lists keep the measure
the sidebar already tuned, rather than stretching across a monitor.
- Under 900px the grid falls back to the stacked layout, so a narrow window
degrades to what the sidebar already does.
- The "open full screen" chip hides itself on the full-screen surface, so it
cannot open a second copy of itself.
Everything is scoped to [data-surface="web"], so the sidebar is byte-for-byte
unchanged. Verified both surfaces, the narrow fallback (by exercising the
real media rule) and zero horizontal overflow.
The aegis.x/app URL still needs a main.js route in Theseus; this ships the
destination over the add-on channel first.
Eight decimals of tail sat exactly where the eye lands. The hero now shows
two decimals once there is a whole part, because the whole units already
carry the significant digits, and digs past leading zeros otherwise so
amounts under 1 keep roughly four significant figures:
1204.23234145 -> 1,204.23 0.23234145 -> 0.2323
0.00012345 -> 0.0001234 0.00000001 -> 0.00000001
A flat "two decimal places" rule is the obvious version of this and it is
wrong: it renders 0.00042 BCH as 0.00 and the wallet reads as empty. The
rule here never collapses a non-zero balance to zeros, and it truncates
rather than rounds, so the figure shown is never more than the wallet holds
and sending the displayed amount always clears. An ellipsis marks the cut,
hover gives the exact figure, clicking pins full precision and is
remembered. Only this hero abbreviates — Send, MAX, history and the wallet
strip still call fmtBig, so every number acted on is exact.
Also repairs the regexes in the same function, which lost their backslashes
when the earlier commit was scripted: /^(-?)(\d+)(\.\d+)?$/ had become
/^(-?)(d+)(.d+)?$/, matching the letter "d". Still valid JS, so it parsed
cleanly and every balance quietly fell through to unformatted text — the
grouping and the dimmed decimals introduced in bb639a9 had never once run.
Caught by testing the function body extracted from the file rather than a
transcription of it.
The network chip sat on its own row holding a single chip and ~300px of dead
space, while the connection state and the per-wallet actions sat on a second
row underneath the balance. Two thin rows sandwiching the number people open
the panel for pushed it into the middle of the header. They are now one row
above it: [network] [state] ......... [Explorer] [Faucet].
Neither half belongs in Settings. The status line is not a hostname label —
it is also where "connecting…", "· syncing", "· <n> unconfirmed" and the
walletd setup prompt are written, so filing it away would hide an unconfirmed
balance and an instruction. Explorer and Faucet are verbs on the selected
wallet rather than configuration, which is why 0.9.2 lifted them out of the
Receive card in the first place.
Only the hostname may shrink. Left to itself the flexbox took width off the
network chip first and clipped "Chipnet testnet" to "Chipnet" — the one label
on that row that must never be ambiguous, since it says whether the next
action moves real money.
First pass of the wallet-app restyle. The panel led with a 22px balance that
carried no more weight than the labels around it, so the one number people
open the sidebar to read had to be hunted for. It is now the hero: 32px,
thousands-grouped, with the fractional part dimmed so magnitude reads before
precision. The ticker and the fiat conversion sit on its baseline as
annotations rather than peers, and wrap to their own line intact once the
amount outgrows a narrow panel.
The Receive/Send/History/Settings bar used an underline for the active tab,
which read as browser chrome and all but vanished at sidebar widths — a 2px
rule under a short label is easy to miss. It is a segmented pill bar now,
active section filled in the accent. The hover tint derives from --ink so it
shows in the light theme too, where a white overlay was invisible.
No charts yet: there is no price history behind Coin-Spectrum to draw, so
nothing here fakes a trend line.
Each .warow was its own grid container, so the `auto` amount column
resolved independently per row: a row holding 0.3066756 got a narrower
column than one holding 0.43789841, and the copy button therefore landed
at a different x on every line. Column widths have to be SHARED to line
up, and nothing was sharing them.
The columns are now declared once on a .walist wrapper and every row
inherits them via `grid-template-columns: subgrid`. Column gaps moved to
the parent, since a subgrid takes its gutters in the subgridded axis from
the grid it inherits and would have ignored them on the row. A
@supports fallback pins the amount column to a fixed 104px for any host
without subgrid, which keeps the copy column straight there too.
Measured across six rows with four different amount lengths, at 260,
320, 400 and 520px wide: copy left edge, amount right edge, ticker left
edge and menu right edge all have 0px spread, with no row overflow and
no clipped amount.
0.9.8 claimed this area was verified, but the check only looked for cell
overlap WITHIN each row and never compared the same column ACROSS rows —
which is exactly the defect it missed.
The row's grid template still described the pre-0.9.2 layout — six
columns including an address cell that no longer exists — while the row
renders five. Every cell therefore sat one column left of where it
belonged: copy landed in the label's space, the amount in the old label
column, and the ⋯ in the amount column instead of the edge. That is the
whole cause of "the copy button collides with the amount" and "the last
edit button is not on the edge".
Now five columns for five cells: icon · label · copy · amount · menu,
8px gaps. The label is the flexible one, left-aligned, so it takes the
slack and truncates rather than squeezing the number. Verified at 520,
400 and 300px: no cell overlap at any width, no row overflow, and the
amount never clips — only long labels give way.
The copy glyph was the 📋 emoji, which has no glyph in this platform's
font stack and rendered as a tofu box that read like a stray character
stuck to the balance. Replaced with an inline SVG in both the row and
the address card. Both confirmation flashes now swap innerHTML rather
than textContent, which would have deleted the SVG and left a blank
square.
Address card: the address and its copy button share one row, so the
button sits at the end of the value it copies. The address clamps to two
lines and truncates beyond that instead of growing the card in a narrow
sidebar.
The QR is always visible and the panel is drag-resizable from a grip
under it (pointer events, arrow keys as a non-mouse path, clamped
90–420px, capped against the panel's own width so a size set on a wide
sidebar cannot overflow a narrow one, persisted). That replaces the
0.9.2 show/hide toggle — a size set once beats a binary, and it frees
the row Copy was sharing with a QR button.
drawQr was setting cv.style.width/height, which would have reset the
panel to its intrinsic size on every redraw — i.e. every time the
address changed. It now sets only the backing store and re-asserts the
user's size after drawing.
"Next unused address" is correct at the adapter level on both mainnet
and chipnet (tested: the index advances and the address changes), so the
reported failure is elsewhere. The handler was discarding the error and
flashing a bare "Failed", which is why there was nothing to diagnose; it
now surfaces the real message.
0.9.3 merged ✎ and 🗑 into one ⋯ in the coin drilldown but left the
coins summary row with the old pair, so the two views disagreed about
the same idea. Both now carry a single ⋯ opening the manage modal.
Found by rendering the panel against stubbed host state over HTTP
rather than reading the diff — the file:// preview never executes
panel.js, so earlier checks could only confirm the markup existed, not
that it drew correctly.
Drops the now-unreachable removeWalletWithConfirm helper, the
data-wremove handler and the .wactdel style that went with them.
Address row is now icon · label · amount · one button. ✎ and 🗑 were two
controls for what is really one idea ("change this wallet"), and the
manage modal already holds rename, derivation path AND remove — so a
single ⋯ opens it. That also stops Remove sitting one stray click away
from Rename. Default/legacy wallets show a lock instead.
The per-address amount is back unconditionally: 0.9.2 hid it when a coin
had one address, but the row reads as a breakdown and the gap looked
like missing data. The duplicate that actually mattered — the drilldown
subtitle — stays gone.
The Assets card only ever had branches for SOL, BCH and TRX, so ETH fell
through to a hidden card despite the adapter returning tokens in the
same shape. The generic branch is now keyed on the DATA rather than a
list of chain ids: any chain whose snapshot carries `tokens` renders,
which means ETH works today and a chain added later works for free. Only
the label ("TRC20" / "ERC20" / "Tokens") varies by chain.
Dropped the "Pick a coin" title row from the coin picker — the search
field's own placeholder already says what the pane is, so the title was
a line of chrome restating it and pushing the list down. Search and
close now share the top row.
Token history stays in History despite the request coming from tokens
being mistaken for transactions: a wallet that had only ever moved USDT
still showed an empty history without it.
Receive was ordered QR → address → tokens, so 200px of always-on QR sat
above the thing people came for and pushed the asset list off screen.
- Address first, with Copy and a QR button; the QR expands inline and
the choice sticks, because someone who receives by QR wants it every
time and someone who copies never does.
- Explorer and Faucet moved up to the header status row. They act on the
selected wallet, not on the act of receiving, and down there they
competed with Copy for the one row that gets used.
- Assets card renamed from Tokens and now leads with the native coin, so
"what does this wallet hold" is one list rather than two places.
- "+ Add another <TICKER>" moved below the address list.
The balance appeared three times — header, drilldown subtitle, address
row. Now once in the header; the subtitle keeps only the per-unit price,
and the per-address amount returns when a coin actually has more than one
address to compare. The address row drops its truncated address (the full
one is at the top of Receive) and keeps the wallet name.
The per-address asset list added in 0.8.8 duplicated the Assets card and
is removed — assets live in one place.
Token amounts were unreadable: an 18-decimal balance rendered as
60000000.000000005435817984. Capped to 8 decimals with thousands
separators, exact value on hover.
A symbol claimed by more than one contract now carries a LOOK-ALIKE tag.
The test wallet holds four different contracts all calling themselves
"Test USDT" — spam mints borrowing a trusted ticker so a careless send
lands on the wrong one. We can't tell which is genuine, so we mark every
member of the clash rather than guessing.
History showed native transfers only, so a wallet that had only ever
moved USDT looked empty. TRC20 transfers are merged in newest-first, each
carrying its own decimals and ticker (rendering a token against the
chain's scale would be off by orders of magnitude). Both feeds are on by
default; the checkboxes narrow rather than opt in, and the last one
checked can't be unchecked into an empty list.
Completes the parity work 0.8.7 started for Tron. Imported ETH and SOL
wallets showed a native balance and nothing else, because the JSON-RPC
endpoints they poll have no history or token concept at all.
- ETH history + ERC-20 balances via Blockscout, which needs no API key
(Etherscan V2 does). Mainnet RPC moves off eth.llamarpc.com, which was
answering 525 with an HTML error page — that parsed as a JSON error and
showed as a 0 balance.
- SOL history via getSignaturesForAddress and SPL balances via
getTokenAccountsByOwner, both keyless on the public RPC.
Three things the live testing turned up:
- A Blockscout mempool entry is {result:"pending", status:null}. Reading
that as "not ok, therefore failed" showed pending sends as failures.
Now carries a distinct pending state through to the row.
- History `delta` is now a number, a decimal string, or null. ETH wei
needs the string (18 decimals overflows a JS number, and Math.abs was
silently rounding it); Solana's signature feed carries no amount at
all, and null >= 0 is true, so unknown amounts were rendering as a
"+" that claimed a receive we cannot verify. Unknown now renders as a
neutral row instead.
- A real address came back with 855 ERC-20s and 3078 SPL mints, nearly
all airdrop spam, some with blank, zero-width or bidi-override
symbols that render as an empty row borrowing trust from its
neighbours. Token text is sanitised and lists are capped at 50, sorted
so named tokens survive the cap.
Also: the first-run setup screen forced text-align:left on the form, so
its helper copy ran ragged under a centred mark, title and description.
The form now inherits the centred alignment; the mnemonic box stays
left-aligned on purpose, since centring wrapped seed words makes them
harder to check.
Wallet strip:
- Clicking a coin opens that coin's page (addresses, price, totals, back
and close) instead of only flipping the selection and leaving the list
sitting there. The page already existed but was reachable only via the
small count chip.
- The per-coin second action was a gear that selected the wallet and
opened the global Settings tab — the same destination for every coin,
so it read as a per-coin control that wasn't one. It is now Remove,
behind a confirm, with the default/legacy wallet showing a lock
instead since it gates legacy funds.
- Each address in the drilldown can expand to show what THAT address
holds: TRC20/SPL via the adapter's tokens, BCH CashTokens via
tokenBalances. walletSummary now carries both per wallet, so the view
no longer has to borrow the selected wallet's assets.
WizardConnect — the Connect pane was effectively unusable:
- The locked-vault branch told the user to unlock and gave them nothing
to click. It is reachable without the lock screen ever appearing,
because a mounted imported wallet makes overallPhase read "ready".
It now carries the same unlock form the lock screen uses.
- Imported BCH wallets were never registered with the WC manager —
startForWallet ran only in the vault-derived mount branch. They mount
as ready, so they appeared in the "Sign with" picker and then failed
on pair. They now register from their stored seed. WC derives a child
key tree, so single-key (WIF) imports genuinely cannot pair; those are
disabled in the picker with the reason, rather than failing on click.
- Adds window.wizardconnect so a dapp can hand over the wiz:// URI it
already generated instead of making the user copy it between tabs.
The protocol is Nostr-relay pairing designed for phone-scans-QR, and
the SDK has no in-page discovery at all, so this is our own surface:
connect() + isReady(), plus a wizardconnect:announceProvider event
shaped like EIP-6963 so several WC wallets can coexist. Pairing always
goes through the approval modal; the URI is validated before any UI
shows, and the wallet never reads the page to find one.
Two follow-ups on 0.8.0's currency picker after a testing pass:
- The network label was a tiny gray suffix next to the wallet name in
the header, so "which network am I on" wasn't obvious at a glance.
Now it's a separate row of one clickable chip under the coin ticker;
clicking jumps into the browse:chain view where the network strip
actually switches network.
- Clicking the header opened a "Pick a coin" pane that only listed
coins the user already had a wallet for — a first-time user with a
single BCH wallet would see one row and no way to add more. Now it
shows every supported coin behind a search box; owned coins jump to
the wallet list, unowned coins jump straight into the create-wallet
flow with that coin's network group pre-expanded.
Settings grew tall enough that the user had to scroll past a dozen
cards to reach Prices, Sites or About. Split it into six named
sections (Security, Session, Wallet, Prices, Sites, About) with a
chip nav row at the top; only one section is visible at a time and
the choice persists across restarts.
Adds an About card that names the wallet, the aegis.x front-door
site and the silentmode.st umbrella, so support triage has a
one-click way to reach either from within the panel.
Includes the accumulated 0.7.x-0.8.1 wallet work that was already
shipping on OTA (CashTokens/BCMR, imported-wallet spend, siascan
integration, consolidate, currency picker, footer update chip).
Theseus core:
- addons-host: manifest.category ("plugin") propagates through snapshot(); new
addon API surface checkAndStageSelfUpdate() + restartApp() so a plug-in
can offer in-panel "update now → restart to apply" without pushing the
user to Settings.
- main.js: wires the two new hooks into the AddonHost constructor.
- settings.html: Extensions listing filters out category==="plugin"; those
add-ons live in Plug-ins instead, single source of truth.
Aegis 0.6.31:
- BTC picker trimmed to Signet only; testnet3 hidden (adapter kept so any
existing wallet still loads).
- Wallet strip groups by chain, not chain:network; ticker gets a ▾ chevron
and a dropdown listing every subnetwork with its own totals. Mainnet
reads as the plain ticker; testnets carry a small Chipnet/Signet/Sepolia
pill inline.
- Per-unit price sits directly under the ticker; amount + fiat mirror on
the right — one glance covers name/price/holding/value.
- + Add and ⋯ More promoted from the strip into the header's action row,
next to the new ✎ chip (was the redundant top ⋯). Duplicate "Manage
current wallet" entry removed from the More menu.
- Footer update chip is a two-step flow via the new API: stage → restart.
Falls back to opening Settings on any Theseus that lacks the hooks.
- Manifest declares "category": "plugin".
Aegis Wallet 0.4.4 → 0.6.1:
- Vault lifecycle from the wallet gate. The locked / not-yet-created states
now show a master-password form (with optional BIP39 mnemonic on setup)
instead of redirecting users to Settings › Passwords. New
api.vault.lifecycle {status, setup, unlock, lock} in addons-host, gated by
the existing "vault-derive" capability. api.openSettings(section) also
added; settings.html honours a #section hash on open.
- Imported BCH wallets (design M.1a, read-only). Paste a mnemonic + BIP44
path or a WIF; the cashaddr is derived in the add-on, the signer material
goes to a separate wallet-imports.enc via api.vault.imports {list, add,
remove, signer}. Argus password-vault gains createImports / unlockImports /
saveImports with its own KDF salt so the imports key is disjoint from the
passwords key. lib/chain-bch-imported.js is a single-address Electrum
adapter; spend support is deferred to M.1b.
- Opt-in USD prices via CoinGecko (lib/prices.js), off by default, persisted
in add-on storage. Fiat lines under balances, in the wallet picker, and a
portfolio total when 2+ wallets are open. Settings tab is now reachable
while the vault is locked so the toggle is always available.
- WizardConnect wallet-side pairing for BCH wallets (lib/wc.js, lib/wc-sign.js).
@wizardconnect/{core,wallet} are loaded dynamically via api.import to stay
on the right side of LGPL §4d. Sign requests go through approvalModal and
are restricted to P2PKH inputs with SIGHASH_ALL|FORKID|UTXOS.
- DGB adapter load is now soft-fail: when Aegis runs from userData/addons the
bundled ESM can't resolve peer deps, so DGB becomes unavailable instead of
taking the whole add-on down.

Bundled since 0.3.27:
32d4b75 - Aegis (bchwallet) gains its own update card in Settings >
General beside Ariadne. Check for updates hits the same signed OTA
endpoint the boot timer uses; Restart to apply appears when a signed
newer version is staged. Uses the existing addons-check-updates + a
new app-restart IPC. New Aegis versions ship without a Theseus release.
32d4b75 (same commit) - DevTools (F12 / Ctrl+Shift+I) opens docked to
the right of the tab (mode: 'right') instead of a detached window.
Matches stock Chrome. Users who prefer detached can drag out via the
DevTools own toolbar.
b71c925 - Search-engine favicons in Settings > Search now use Google's
