Ships 70b7325 (Pithos, the s3d control panel, as a bundled extension:
open it from the dock to run your own S3 gateway on Sia), dae6b9a
(Settings gets its own Language page), f3efae3 (translator served from
silentmode.st/libre with libre.x / lingua.x) and 604a990 (BNS names read
from Ariadne's indexer when it is installed, Theseus's own as standby).
Migration step 3 (DESIGN-bns-indexer-service.md). Ariadne's Thread now owns
BNS indexing on the machine, so Theseus no longer runs a second electrum
indexer beside it.
bns-indexer.js keeps its process and its messages to main.js, but inside
it is now an index host on the shared source chain:
- Ariadne's indexer over its pipe, trusted only after ariadne-helper.exe
has checked the server process on that connection (found through
Ariadne's uninstall key), then pushes;
- the local copies: Ariadne's files for both scopes, Theseus's own raw
copy, the bundled one. The richest wins.
- Theseus's own index copy, written from the pipe data.
The shared core runs as Theseus's own indexer only while Ariadne is
unhealthy. That means: no pipe 4 s after launch, a pipe that fails the
check, a pipe that went silent, or an index not confirmed for 10 min while
Ariadne is not paused. The own indexer warm-starts from Ariadne's
snapshot, so there is no download and no cold sync. It hands back after
90 s of health, so a flapping service does not start and stop it. Economy
is not a failure and never triggers a takeover. With no checkable Ariadne
(portable, not installed, older than the pipe) the own indexer starts at
once, as in 0.3.70. The one thing Theseus does on Ariadne's side is run
the indexer's task at launch when "Launch at start" is off.
main.js passes the shared module paths (packaged as .mjs, which is why the
shared modules no longer import each other) and keeps the host's status.
The Ariadne panel takes its state from the indexer task when one exists,
and the sub-page says where Theseus's names come from.
Ships 057629d — add-on stores kept in memory instead of re-read and re-parsed
on every get (a 7.5 MB Aegis store held the window in Not Responding for
16 s) — plus the in-page translator (4fbfc9e, f54ebd6, b43b180).
The snapshot parse, index builds, electrum sync and snapshot refresh ran on
the browser's main thread at launch. They now run in bns-indexer.js, a
utilityProcess, in two phases: the local snapshot first (no network), then
— once the first page has loaded — the published snapshot (one download)
and the electrum poll. Main keeps a mirror of the name map for its
synchronous lookups; tabs no longer wait for the index to restore.
With no local index yet, a name under a known BCNR TLD gets one lookup of
just that name on the gateway and opens; the full snapshot and the electrum
check follow in the background, and every quick answer is compared with the
verified index when it lands (a mismatch reloads the affected tabs). Plain
web hosts are never sent to the gateway, and the extension-publisher check
only accepts verified data.
DESIGN-bns-indexer-service.md: Ariadne's Thread as the owner of the one
shared indexer (scope x mode, launch at start, power, and a resolver that
never depends on the indexer).
Session restore no longer loads any page on launch. In 0.3.63 the strip was
built from saved titles + favicons and only the previously-active tab's URL
was navigated at startup, so a 20-tab session cost one renderer load instead
of twenty — but that one load is still a real page, often the heaviest one
in the whole session, and it fought every other startup task for the main
thread while the window sat not-responding. Now every restored tab, the
previously-active one included, comes up dormant: zero page renderers at
launch, no page starts loading until the user asks for a specific tab
(clicks the chip, hits reload, types in the URL bar). The previously-active
tab stays highlighted in the strip so one click brings it back; the content
area sits with the tab's own background colour until that click. RAM-at-
launch is now just the chrome, the overlays and the strip — a 500 MB saved
page never materialises as a renderer the user did not even ask to see.
A pending tab that is navigated explicitly (URL bar, link, search) drops
its saved URL at the top of navigateTab, so a later reload or chip click
can't snap it back.
Quick-links strip default set is now Telegram, WhatsApp, X, YouTube — in
that order. Messenger and Spotify are out of the default; users who want
them can still add them via Settings › General › Quick links. Existing
installs whose list still matches the previous untouched default (same six
ids in the same order) migrate on next launch; any customisation (reorder,
add, remove) is left alone.
Ships fc25e1c and 380ac57: a website loaded into the Settings tab could read
the password vault, add-on updates accepted any publisher's signature, and
the review's follow-ups (stale BNS records, POST replay, background dialogs
stealing focus, update helper on non-ASCII profiles, ...).
Clicking an icon on the left strip now opens the service inside a dedicated
380-px mini-view (quickPanel) next to the strip, Opera-style, instead of a
new full-sized tab. Click the active icon again to close the panel; click a
different one to switch. If the panel is already pointed at the same host,
we skip the loadURL so scroll position, open chat and login state survive
a close+reopen round-trip.
Icons now paint as real brand SVGs (Messenger, WhatsApp, Telegram, X,
YouTube, Spotify) with their official colours, bundled inside quicklinks.html
so no external favicon fetch leaks the fact that the strip is loaded.
Unknown ids fall back to a letter chip. The strip vertically centres the
icons between two flex spacers to match Opera's layout.
Defaults ship Messenger, WhatsApp, Telegram, X, YouTube and Spotify. The
Settings › General › Quick links section still lists / adds / removes
entries and toggles the strip.
New thin vertical column (44 px) on the left side of every page, Opera-style.
Click an icon to open its web app in a new tab; if a tab is already open on
that host, we focus it instead of stacking another one. Hidden in HTML
fullscreen so a video still fills the window; toggle via Settings › General ›
Quick links › Show the strip.
Defaults ship X, Telegram and WhatsApp. The Settings › General › Quick links
section lists the current entries with a Remove button each and a Title + URL
+ Add row that auto-prefixes https:// and auto-fills the title from the
hostname when empty. Edits write the whole settings.quickLinks array; the
strip view and the window layout react through settings-set, so no restart is
needed.
Settings › General › Updates panel also now runs standalone (no longer gated
by anything in the shared cfg.get().then() init), so a thrown exception in an
unrelated feature can't leave it stuck on "Loading…" any more — the version
line reads immediately and Check for Updates stays functional.
0.3.65 wrapped the Updates panel code in try/catch but still left it inside the
big C.get().then((s)=>…) block. If anything earlier in that block throws on a
specific profile — a feature's addEventListener on a missing element, a settings
read that rejects, anything — the panel's code never runs and the user sees
"Loading…" forever regardless of the try. Users reported this still happening on
0.3.65.
Updates panel now runs standalone right after the shared constants, as its own
immediately-invoked function, with no dependency on cfg.get() or any other
Settings init. Everything it needs (appVersion/recheckUpdate IPCs and two DOM
elements) is already available at script time. It will show "You're on vX.Y.Z"
or a specific error, never a stuck placeholder.
Settings › General › Updates used to stay on "Loading…" forever if anything
earlier in the shared C.get().then((s)=>…) init threw, or if the version IPC
rejected — the .catch(()=>{}) on the version fetch swallowed it. Users then
had no in-app way to run "Check for updates", because the button sits in the
same panel.
Panel init now wraps in its own try, surfaces the actual error on the status
line (missing IPC / fetch rejection / init failure), and keeps the Check for
Updates button functional even when the earlier version read fails. Toolbar
chip is unaffected either way — the auto-updater runs independently.
Windows's "App is not responding" dialog and Task Manager read FileDescription
from the exe's VERSIONINFO resource, which electron-builder sets from
package.json's description. The marketing tagline sat there, so a frozen tab
produced "Theseus Navigator — a browser that follows the thread. By Silent
Mode, a Deviant project. is not responding". Override via build.extraMetadata
so only the built asar's description is clipped to "Theseus Navigator"; the
source description stays as-is for npm metadata.
(The "not responding" freeze itself is fixed in 0.3.63 by the lazy tab
restore — users still on 0.3.62 will see it until they take 0.3.63.)
Session restore now paints the full strip from the saved titles + favicons and
loads only the ACTIVE tab's page; every other restored tab lives as a dormant
WebContentsView and navigates for the first time when the user clicks it. For
a 20-tab user that drops cold start from 20 renderer loads racing chrome.html
to one, so launch is roughly flat whatever the tab count — fixes the "not
responding" freeze on a session with many restored tabs. session.json is now
v3 ({v:3, tabs:[{url,title,favicon}], active}); v1/v2 session files still
parse (their tabs restore lazy without a cached title, which arrives on first
activation). Reload on a dormant tab materialises it.
Privacy › Anti-fingerprinting › Language is now two modes — Automatic (system
language) and Manual — matching the General › Website language row and the
URL-bar globe chip. The old Spoof-choose top-10 and Hide-en-US modes are gone
from the UI; legacy saved values auto-migrate to Automatic on first open. The
Manual list is the same 24 languages the General row uses, kept in one place
(WEB_LANG_LIST), so all three surfaces stay in sync.
Changing the language via the globe chip or either settings row now reloads
the active tab — the server picked the response body from Accept-Language on
the original request, so an already-rendered page can't adopt the new language
on its own. A reload is what a user clicking a one-click language switch
expects.
The Location row's country dropdown now stacks under the mode dropdown on its
own line when Manual is picked, so an open menu above it can't visually cover
it (the row's flex-row max-60% layout could wrap it where another dropdown's
overlay sat).
Also: the settings-update broadcast now reaches every open settings tab, not
only the chrome — so changing the chip updates both the General Website-
language row and the Privacy Anti-fingerprinting Language row live without a
Settings refresh.
Intl.DisplayNames.of("en-US") returns "American English", which spells out a
distinction the picker doesn't make — one row per language, with English the
UK original. Pass the base code to Intl so the chip tooltip, the "Automatic
(…)" label and the Settings hint all read as the plain language name
(English, Russian, Portuguese, Chinese) regardless of which regional variant
the OS or the saved setting happens to be.
Privacy › Location is three modes now: Show real, Hide, Manual. Manual reveals a
50-country dropdown whose pick becomes the coordinates navigator.geolocation
returns to pages — country-capital granularity, no regions or free-form cities.
Old profiles on the retired "Spoof (region)" auto-migrate to Manual + the
region's representative country on first open, so nothing breaks.
VPN row in Privacy stops opening the wrong add-on: the sidebar now no-ops on a
specific panelId that isn't registered (used to silently substitute panels[0],
which surfaced Aegis whenever the VPN add-on was disabled), and the row hides
itself when vpn:main isn't in the sidebar panel list.
Language picker (globe chip menu + Settings › General › Website language) drops
the BCP-47 tag from every visible label — the tag surfaces only as the 2-letter
chip in the URL bar once picked. "English" is the UK original; the US variant
row is retired (same 2-letter chip, ~same text). Ukrainian dropped from the
quick list too. "Automatic" reads as the OS language name (Intl.DisplayNames)
instead of a raw en-US style tag.
A globe chip next to the URL-bar star shows the language sites see you in
(Accept-Language + navigator.language) — "AUTO" while following the OS locale,
the two-letter code once you pin one. Click opens a 23-language menu; the same
setting has a friendly row at the top of Settings › General. Both write to the
existing languageMode/languageValue and stay in sync with the Anti-fingerprinting
Language row through a settings-update broadcast (settings.html and chrome.html
both react live).
Settings › Plug-ins is now two compact rows — one per plug-in — with the on/off
toggle on the right and the update controls beside it. Clicking a plug-in's title
opens its own sub-page (plugins/ariadne, plugins/aegis) with the full description
and the Uninstall button, so the main list stays scannable and dangerous actions
stop travelling with the everyday ones. The Ariadne toggle and its sub-page
mirror the same scheduled-task state.
The public repos carried no license, so nobody could legally copy or build
on the code, and the whitepaper's "free software" had nothing behind it.
Theseus and its companions take the Mozilla Public License 2.0, the
file-level copyleft Firefox and Brave use, which is compatible with every
component they bundle. The resolver and gateway libraries take Apache-2.0
so that other implementations of the registry can reuse them without
copyleft in the way. The protocol documents and the whitepaper are CC BY 4.0.
A third-party notices file lists what the browser ships and fetches, with
the source offer the GPL sing-box binary the VPN add-on downloads requires;
the matching source archive is now published beside the binaries. The
names and marks are reserved in TRADEMARKS.md, separate from the code
license, so a fork must ship under its own name. Settings › General says
the license and links the three files; the whitepaper says the same.
Every engine icon was an <img> pointing at Google's favicon service, fetched
again each time the picker, the toolbar or Settings rendered. Offline the
whole list collapsed to the emoji fallbacks, and each open told Google
which engines the user has configured. The catalog's icons now live in
engine-icons/<id>.png inside the app; a custom engine's icon is fetched
once (its own /favicon.ico first, the favicon service as fallback), cached
under the profile, and removed with the engine. Settings no longer falls
through to DuckDuckGo's icon service either. Phind ships no icon: its site
serves none through the bot wall.
A bundled add-on that answers cookie consent dialogs, rejecting all but
the essentials by default (or accepting, if the user prefers the banner
simply gone), so pages open without one. Built on DuckDuckGo's
autoconsent (MPL-2.0): its rule bundle covers hundreds of consent
managers, and a reject-button heuristic handles unknown banners in
reject mode. The library runs through the page-inject slot in every
http(s) frame's isolated world; the add-on hands each frame the user's
settings and the rules, and counts what was handled per site for the
panel, which also excludes a site with one click.
build-inject.js assembles inject.js from the library in node_modules
plus the glue, and copies the compact rules and licence into the add-on
so a rule update can ship through the add-on channel.
Host side: page-inject scripts get theseus.evalInPage for the few rules
that need the page's own JavaScript (they already reach the page via
contextBridge, so no new trust tier), and api.tabs is open to
page-inject add-ons as well as request-filter ones.
Theseus had no content blocking at all. Shield blocks requests to known
tracking and advertising hosts on every site, using EasyList and
EasyPrivacy through Ghostery's adblocker engine (the matcher those lists
are written for). The lists ship inside the add-on so blocking works
from the first launch, offline; the compiled engine is cached under the
add-on's data dir (a 22 ms load instead of a 500 ms parse), and the
lists refresh from their publishers about once a day.
The panel shows what was stopped on the current page, a one-click
allow for the site, the global switch, the running total and the rule
versions with an "Update now". Network filters only for now: a blocked
request never leaves the browser, but leftover empty ad boxes are not
hidden yet.
Host side: a "request-filter" capability. Chromium allows one
onBeforeRequest listener per session, so main owns it and consults the
add-ons' filters; a top-level navigation is never blocked, only http(s)
subresources are offered. api.tabs (active tab and a change event) lets
the panel show per-site numbers without seeing page content.
alert / confirm / prompt from a page came up as bare OS message boxes
titled "theseus-navigator" (the package name), with no hint of who was
asking and nothing of the browser's styling — the PDF Editor's "Delete
signature?" was the reported case.
The session preload replaces the page's three functions with wrappers
that hand the call to the isolated world through a DOM event, which
asks main synchronously and writes the answer back; pages see Chrome's
return values (confirm → boolean, prompt → string or null) and no new
global. Main answers from a sheet hanging under the toolbar, in the
same surface as add-on approvals, that names who is asking: the site's
host, the add-on's name for an add-on page or panel (identified by its
path under the profile's extensions directory), or Theseus for its own
pages. The sheet belongs to the tab that asked — hidden while another
tab is in front, back when its tab returns — and a closing tab or
window answers "cancel" so no renderer stays blocked. Windows without
the chrome (installed apps, plain windows) get a native box with a
proper title, and app.name now reads "Theseus Navigator" for whatever
else still shows one.
0.3.50's relocateProfile checked for %APPDATA%\Theseus Navigator\, but
Electron's userData path is derived from app.getName(), which reads
package.json's top-level "name" ("theseus-navigator") because there is
no top-level productName — the "productName": "Theseus Navigator" in
this file lives under "build", where electron-builder reads it for the
installer, not where Electron reads it for the runtime path. So the
folder the user's Theseus writes to is %APPDATA%\theseus-navigator\,
never %APPDATA%\Theseus Navigator\.
On 0.3.50 that meant relocateProfile found nothing at its search path,
returned the new Theseus\ location, and Electron happily created a
fresh empty profile there. The user's addons, vault, bookmarks and
settings stayed in theseus-navigator\ but the running Theseus was no
longer looking at them. Losing the vault is not something the user
can recover from.
Check both candidate names — the one the code was written for and the
one that actually exists — and migrate whichever is present. If the
new Theseus\ already exists (Windows fresh installs after 0.3.51), we
leave it alone.
Cuts the shipping trigger for the changes accumulated since 0.3.49:
translate is bundled (so a fresh install has it out of the box, and
seedBundledAddons reseeds the folder on any install that lost it),
Settings > Extensions no longer double-renders installed extensions
in a separate Community section, and the PDF/DOC data-URI icons the
dock now paints as <img>s ship alongside their addons.
A year-old engine is now a bot signal in itself: DataDome blocked
estore.asus.com for Theseus on Chromium 130 while the same request claiming
Chrome 152 went through, and Chromium 130 carries a year of unpatched
renderer bugs. Electron 44 boots the app unchanged; verified on the new
engine: local files, HTTP auth prompt, tab strip in the title bar, BNS
sites and window.bcnr, all bundled add-ons, the Tor toggle
(check.torproject.org via the SOCKS agent), and a full NSIS + portable
build (artifacts grow from ~99 MB to ~132 MB with the larger engine).
session.setPreloads is deprecated from 35 on; preloads are registered
with registerPreloadScript when available, with the old call as fallback.
Sites behind Basic/Digest auth (silentmode.st/guardian/admin) rendered the
server's 401 page because nothing listened for Electron's login event,
which cancels every challenge by default. A modal sign-in prompt now asks
for the credentials and answers the challenge; Cancel leaves the 401 page.
Concurrent challenges for the same host and realm share one prompt while it
is open, and a rejected answer re-prompts instead of replaying the same
credentials until Chromium gives up with ERR_TOO_MANY_RETRIES.
Also: THESEUS_NO_UPDATE_CHECK skips the release check, for throwaway dev
instances — the one-click install chip they show targets the real install.
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".
Cloudflare Bot Fight Mode / Turnstile flag 'UA claims Chrome but client
hints don't confirm it' as bot. Electron's default sec-ch-ua reads
'Chromium';v='130', 'Not(A:Brand';v='99' — no 'Google Chrome' brand
(that's closed-source Google branding open Chromium doesn't carry).
Combined with a UA that's already stripped of the Electron token
(stockChromeUA), the mismatch itself is the fingerprint. This is what
whybitcoincash.com and other CF-fronted sites tripped on: server
returned 503 to Theseus while returning 200 to any curl variant.
Brave, Vivaldi and Opera solved this the same way — ship their own
sec-ch-ua that INCLUDES Chrome-family brands so CF's allow-list catches
them. New applyClientHintsSpoof() registers a session-wide
onBeforeSendHeaders that rewrites the sec-ch-ua family on every
outbound request:
sec-ch-ua: 'Google Chrome';v=<major>, 'Chromium';v=<major>, 'Not?A_Brand';v='99'
sec-ch-ua-full-version-list: same trio with real Chromium version
sec-ch-ua-mobile: '?0'
sec-ch-ua-platform: actual OS name (Windows / macOS / Linux)
Major comes from process.versions.chrome so the story stays internally
consistent — nothing to fingerprint from a Chrome/version mismatch.
Runs alongside applyEmbedCookieShim which uses onHeadersReceived; the
two hooks are separate so no listener collision.
Toolbar drag handle now clamps both bars to at least 30 % of the
.urlsearch budget (URL: 30 %–70 %, search fills the rest). The
existing absolute mins (URL 220 px, search bumped from 140 → 180 px
so the 'Search' placeholder always fits) still apply — the tighter of
absolute vs 30 %-of-container wins at any width. .urlsearch also gets
margin-right: 10 px so the search bar has visible breathing room from
the trailing dock (Downloads / extensions / ⛓ Theseus).
Bookmark brand-case now uses a canonical map for multi-word Silent Mode
names so all-caps sources come out correctly cased: SILENTMODE.X →
SilentMode.X, silentmode.x → SilentMode.X, coinspectrum.x →
CoinSpectrum.X. Single-word brands (Theseus, Sirius, Deviant, Aegis,
Ariadne, Argus, Hermes, Prometheus, Hephaestus, Helios, Atlas,
Katalogos, Game, Poutakidis, Syskypo) are in the same map for
consistency. Unknown names fall back to Title-case (foo.x → Foo.X)
— the ALL-CAPS preserve rule is gone, so GAME.X → Game.X now,
matching the user's ask.
Bookmark chip labels now normalise the .x TLD family to <Name>.X on
render:
theseus.x -> Theseus.X
deviant.x -> Deviant.X
Sirius.x -> Sirius.X
foo-bar.x -> Foo-bar.X
Names that were already ALL-CAPS keep their form so the visual weight
carries through:
GAME.X -> GAME.X (unchanged)
SILENTMODE.X -> SILENTMODE.X (unchanged)
Non-.x titles are untouched (CoinSpectrum, navigate.st, etc.). The
transformation runs after the descriptor trim, so titles like
'theseus.x — the browser…' also come out 'Theseus.X'.
Two visible fixes from the same 2026-09-09 screenshot:
Right-click a tab was building a DOM menu and then growing the chrome
view height so it would fit under the tabstrip. That opened a
visible gap between the toolbar and the tab body while the menu was
up. Now the tab context menu goes through a new IPC
"tab-context-menu-popup" (main.js) that pops an OS-native Menu at
the click point, floating above every WebContentsView — no layout
change, no gap. Preload exposes tabContextMenuPopup(id, {x, y});
chrome.html's tab contextmenu handler now calls it directly and the
DOM openTabContextMenu / openGroupSubmenu / growChromeForMenu path
is bypassed for tabs. (The bookmark bar's own ctxmenu still uses
the DOM path — its short 2-3-row menus don't grow chrome enough
to be visible.)
Bookmark chips were too small (130px max-width, 11px text, 22px row).
Now every chip is a fixed 150px × 28px cell so the row reads as a
uniform grid, 12.5px text, 14px favicon. Labels drop the descriptor:
"GAME.X — Bitcoin Cash game platform" renders as "GAME.X". The
trimmer splits on the first em-dash / en-dash / hyphen that's
surrounded by whitespace, so single-word titles and hyphenated
compound names ("Foo-Bar" with no spaces) come through intact. Full
title still shows on hover.
install-update-now was spawning setup with ['/S'] alone since the
0.3.31 rewrite. That installs correctly (E2E-proven multiple times
this week) but leaves the user without a running browser after the
install completes — the setup exits, and the user has to click the
Start-menu shortcut to get Theseus back.
--force-run is electron-builder's NSIS convention for 'start the app
when the install finishes'; it makes the whole update feel like a
seamless in-place restart. --updated stays out (was proven not to
affect the install itself on our config).
Reported by user 2026-09-09 after 0.3.37 → 0.3.39 auto-update ran
cleanly but silently, with no post-install relaunch.
New settings.devToolsDock (default 'bottom') read by the F12 handler
in main.js on each open. Values:
bottom - Chrome's own default, docked under the tab
sidebar - right-side dock (mode:right). Add-on sidebar tucks
out of the way while DevTools is up.
two-sidebars - right-side dock with the add-on sidebar left in
place, so both share the right area.
Settings > General > Developer tools now hosts a 3-option radio group
(same .polrow style as the collision policy). Changes apply instantly
- the F12 handler reads settings.devToolsDock every time it opens, so
no relaunch is needed.
Two changes shipped together (main.js touched by both this session and a
parallel session in different regions):
Scrollbars — from the "empty white space should be grey, thumb should
be Bitcoin Cash green" ask:
* new SCROLLBAR_CSS constant + styleScrollbars(wc) helper injects the
theme on every dom-ready
* thumb #0AC18E (BCH primary), track rgba(120,130,150,0.18) subtle
neutral grey so it works on both dark and light surfaces without
hardcoding either; 6px radius, 2px inset via background-clip:padding-box
* modern scrollbar-color on <html> for Chromium 121+; ::-webkit- rules
with !important as the fallback / override for sites that theme
their own scrollbars — scrollbar-width intentionally left alone so
a page that hides scrollbars entirely keeps that behaviour
* hooked into every wc we own: createTab, chrome, popover, enginePicker,
downloadsPop, addressPicker, pwFillPop, linkStatus, sidebar (so every
add-on panel like Aegis picks it up), approvalPop
* fires once immediately if the wc is already past dom-ready when we
attach — fixed views load fast during startup, we'd otherwise miss
captureTab full-page — from the parallel session's screenshot work:
* before Page.captureScreenshot with captureBeyondViewport we now
override Emulation.setDeviceMetricsOverride to the window's full
content width so an open sidebar (or other on-screen chrome that
narrowed the tab view) doesn't clip the shot — capture comes back at
the page's natural full width, not the visible width
* attach the debugger for the call if it isn't attached, detach on
return; clear the metrics override in finally so the tab returns to
its normal layout regardless of success
The two independent drag handles (right edge of URL bar, left edge of
search bar) are replaced with ONE handle sitting between them, wrapped
in a new .urlsearch flex container that owns the URL-bar-plus-search-bar
budget between the nav buttons on the left and the trailing dock on the
right.
Zero-sum semantics: dragging the handle right grows the URL bar and
shrinks the search bar; dragging left inverts. Nothing else in the
toolbar moves — nav buttons, Downloads, extension dock and the
⛓ Theseus logo all sit outside .urlsearch's flex parent.
When the window shrinks below the responsive breakpoint the search
bar (and the drag handle) hide as before, and the URL bar grows to
fill the .urlsearch budget on its own (added flex: 1 1 auto in the
data-responsive rules for .urlwrap).
Verified static rendering: url=700px → search=157px, url=300px →
search=539px, url=default → 60/40 split, narrow window → search
hidden and url fills.
Old settings (urlBarSize / searchBoxSize / searchBoxWidthPx) are
ignored by chrome.html but kept in main's SETTINGS_DEFAULTS so an
older chrome.html could still read them on a downgrade. Only
urlBarWidthPx is used going forward.
New sidebar tab between Privacy and Extensions. The two long
system-scoped cards (Ariadne's Thread system-wide resolver, Aegis
built-in wallet) were bloating the General section; they cluster
naturally as "components that live alongside Theseus, each with
install/update/on-off controls of their own" and now have their
own home.
- Adds <a data-sec="plugins">Plug-ins</a> to nav.side
- New <section id="plugins"> with a short lede
- Ariadne + Aegis row blocks moved from General to Plug-ins verbatim
- sections array in showSection() extended with "plugins"
- Tab-switch handler clicks ariadneRefresh so status is never stale;
Aegis card auto-loads on page-init and its "Check for updates"
button stays user-initiated (avoid firing a network request every
time the user opens the Plug-ins tab)
Version bump only, no code changes. Published to prove the just-shipped
0.3.34 install can auto-update itself using the reverted-to ["/S"]
spawn code.
E2E test result — the real D:\Program Files\Theseus Navigator install:
BEFORE: v=0.3.34, hash e59d6da2..., mtime 09/08 22:02:46
AFTER: v=0.3.35, hash 420b7320..., mtime 09/08 22:31:18
Registry updated at same D:\ path
Post-install proc count 0 (no --force-run in the current code, as designed)
Second confirmation this session that install-update-now's ["/S"]-only
spawn (unchanged since 0.3.1) does the right thing against a real
install at a path with spaces.
