The decoder read the first copy of a singular protobuf field; java-tron
keeps the last. Any.value is opaque bytes, so a TransferContract carrying
two recipients and two amounts hashes to the same txid either way: the
overlay showed "1 TRX to X" while the chain would move 999 TRX to
another address. It also defeated the plan-time and sign-time draft checks
against a hostile node. A repeated singular field, or a known field with
the wrong wire type, now refuses the transaction.
- Page-inject policy. An add-on may keep { mode, origins } under the
reserved storage key "__pageInjectPolicy"; in "allowed" mode its bridge is
injected, and its page messages accepted, only on the listed origins. It
is read from the store because the decision is made synchronously at
document start and must hold while an on-demand add-on is still dormant.
A wallet injected into every page tells every page the user has one.
api.features.pageInjectPolicy lets an add-on tell an old host apart.
- vault.imports (raw imported seeds and keys, not namespaced per add-on) and
vault.lifecycle unlock/setup/lock (the master password, and an
unthrottled oracle for it) are for add-ons that ship with Theseus. A
community extension with vault-derive could read the wallet's imported
keys. Others use vault.requestUnlock, where Theseus draws the prompt.
Still 0.31.0 (unpublished batch).
- ETH nonce. The pending count from a load-balanced RPC often misses a
transaction this wallet sent seconds ago, so two sends in a row shared a
nonce and the second failed or replaced the first. The nonce is taken at
signing, from the RPC or from what the wallet itself last broadcast,
whichever is higher, and broadcasts are serialised per wallet.
- Chains without EIP-1559 (no baseFeePerGas) get a legacy EIP-155
transaction; they rejected the type-2 envelope, so a network added by a
dapp could receive but never send. The tip is clamped to the fee cap.
- Bitcoin and DigiByte take their fee rate from the Electrum server's
estimate instead of a constant, size each output from its real script
(a taproot destination was undercounted), and round the size up before
pricing. Bitcoin inputs signal replace-by-fee. DigiByte keeps its 20
sat/vB floor and does not signal RBF, which it does not have.
- Electrum: a wallet with live subscriptions went quiet for good when its
server dropped. The client reconnects with backoff, pings to catch dead
sockets, times out a silent connect, and hands the replayed subscription
answers on as notifications so the wallet refreshes. dispose() ends it.
- Max with an SPL token selected did nothing; it now fills the exact token
balance.
- Removing a wallet retired its derivation index for good. Add wallet now
takes the lowest free index, so the same wallet comes back.
- Solana: registered through the Wallet Standard as "Aegis" instead of
setting isPhantom, with silent connect for already-connected sites.
- "Only show the wallet to sites I enable": Aegis keeps the host's
page-inject allow-list in step with enabled and connected sites.
- `absorbs` lets one add-on derive under another's vault namespace. A
community install has the field stripped, but an update of one is placed
as shipped, so a second version could declare absorbs:["aegis"] and derive
the wallet's keys. It is now honoured only for ids that ship inside
Theseus, at the one place that matters: vault.derive.
- The legacy ids Aegis absorbs ("bchwallet", "siawallet") no longer have a
bundled folder, so nothing stopped a catalog extension from installing
under one and deriving `bchwallet/...`. They are reserved at install and
refused at derive.
- A page-to-add-on message is accepted only from the tab's top-level frame.
The origin shown to the user is the top-level URL, so a subframe that
reached the channel would have been credited with its parent's origin.
- The approval overlay ignores everything but Cancel for the first 800 ms.
A page can raise it without a gesture and knows where the primary button
lands, which made "double-click here" a way to approve a spend.
PIN
- The PIN blob wraps the vault master password under six digits and sat in
plain add-on storage, so a copy of the profile reduced the master password
to a million offline PBKDF2 guesses. It is sealed with the OS keystore
before it is stored; a plain blob from an older build is sealed on first
read. New blobs use 600k iterations.
- "Ask for PIN on every transaction" was decided by the host and enforced
by nobody: `send` never checked it and dapp transactions had no PIN step.
A gate is now cleared only by the master password the PIN unwraps,
verified against the vault, which also opens a single-use transaction
clearance. Panel sends consume one; dapp transactions ask the open panel
and wait.
Spending and signing
- Consolidate emptied wallets on the panel's confirmation alone, defaulted
to every sibling when no list was sent, and swept into whatever was
selected at click time. It now needs explicit sources and the previewed
destination, and shows the whole batch on the host overlay.
- Typed data for a chain other than the connected one is refused. Permit
and Permit2 signatures name the spender, tokens, amounts and expiry, and
an unlimited one gets the danger action. Previews are no longer cut at
600/400 characters without saying so.
- eth.rpc relayed any eth_* call for sites that never connected.
- The WizardConnect overlay lists the tokens being spent and received.
Send form
- "0,5" was read as 5: the parser deleted commas. Amounts are parsed
exactly; a decimal comma is a decimal, ambiguous or non-numeric input is
refused, extra decimals are an error instead of being dropped.
- Send submits the request the summary was computed for, never a fresh read
of the form, and stays off while a plan is pending or stale.
- Switching wallet resets the form instead of leaving a live button on the
previous wallet's plan.
- The unlock field kept the master password after unlocking; the PIN pad
kept its digits and kept counting keystrokes typed elsewhere as PIN
attempts; an idle lock left a revealed key or seed form on screen.
- Enter confirmed a dialog even with focus on Cancel.
Start of the next batch; 0.30.0 is published.
- Tron panel sends signed whatever /wallet/createtransaction returned while
the approval showed the local request. The returned bytes are now decoded
and must be one transfer from this wallet, to that address, for that
amount, with a matching txID - checked at plan time and again at signing.
- Importing a Solana wallet from a seed phrase threw on every attempt (a
mis-parenthesised `new require("crypto").createHmac` plus a bare require
of an ESM-only subpath). SLIP-0010 now uses Node's HMAC, as chain-sol does.
- Imported BCH wallets put token-bearing UTXOs into coin selection. They are
excluded, as in the HD wallet, and the balance counts what can be spent.
- WizardConnect dropped the token from each spent output before signing, so
under SIGHASH_UTXOS every signature of a token transaction was invalid.
- A wallet disposed while a refresh was in flight re-armed its poll timer.
- BCMR registry content is bounded before it reaches the panel: control and
bidi characters stripped, lengths capped, decimals 0-18, icons https/ipfs
only, registries https only.
Aegis is getting a standalone forge repo (silentmode/aegis) split from
this folder. Inside Theseus it was covered by the root LICENSE; on its
own it needs the license and a description in the folder itself.
The dropdown mixed supported and unsupported languages in one list ranked
by global speakers, so the six languages the translator actually handles
today (en, es, fr, de, el, ru) were scattered between greyed rows. The
user had to scan every entry to find the ones they could pick. The
dropdown is now partitioned into two <optgroup>s — "Supported today"
first with the enabled languages, "Translator coming later (Accept-
Language only)" below with the greyed rows — so the top of the list
is actionable and the roadmap is still visible underneath.
Ships 2437506 (the restore setting was a no-op with the default quit
clear), the first-use loader for extensions with Aegis 0.29.0 bundled
(~0.7 s less main-thread work at launch, ETH/SOL bridge fixed), the
language picker as an overlay, Pithos 0.3.4 and the Ariadne status row.
"Open previous windows and tabs" and "Clear history on quit" both default
to on, and the quit clear deleted session.json along with the history, so
every launch started from the start page and the restore setting did
nothing. The open tabs are what the user asked to reopen, not history:
while restore is on, the quit clear keeps them and still drops back/forward
and address-bar history. With restore off, the tab list is deleted as
before.
WalletKeys.entry() built a bech32 p2wpkh address whatever the account
path's purpose, so picking Legacy (D...), Wrapped SegWit (S...) or
Taproot (dgb1p...) in Settings showed a dgb1q address from the BIP44/
49/86 key tree, one no other wallet restoring that path would find.
Each family now derives its own address and script, and spending
supplies what its inputs need (previous tx for P2PKH, redeem script for
P2SH-P2WPKH, tap-tweaked key for Taproot, which is active on DigiByte),
with per-family fee sizes. Unknown purposes are refused instead of
falling back to BIP84.
Also: inputs were signed in selection order but the PSBT orders them by
BIP69, so a spend from two addresses tried to sign each input with the
other's key. They are now signed in the PSBT's order.
approvalRequest passed approve/reject keys the host overlay does not
know, so it showed a lone "OK" button whose id never equalled
"approve": every WizardConnect signing request was refused, and the
HTML body was shown as literal markup. It now passes a Sign action and
plain rows: wallet, input count, each output decoded to a cashaddr on
the wallet's network (or OP_RETURN / raw script), total, and who
broadcasts.
lib/dgb/deps.js is ESM, but in a dev checkout the nearest package.json
is TheseusNavigator's, which says "type": "commonjs"; the import threw
and DigiByte was silently unavailable whenever Theseus ran from the
repo. Shipped installs have no package.json above the add-on, so they
were unaffected. lib/dgb/core and lib/dgb/psbt already carry the same
marker.
The isolated-world relay accepted any postMessage carrying the fixed
tag "aegis-aegis", including one from a cross-origin iframe (an ad,
an embed), and attributed it to the top-level origin and its grants.
The tag now carries a per-load random nonce that only the injected
main-world bridge knows, and both listeners drop events whose source
is not this window. The document_start install path is unchanged.
The overlay for tronWeb-built transactions was built from the dapp's
raw_data JSON, which need not match raw_data_hex: a site could show
"1 TRX to X" and get a signature over anything. lib/tron-decode.js
decodes Transaction.raw from raw_data_hex (contract type, owner, to,
amount, TRC-20 transfer/approve calldata, fee limit, memo); the txID
must match the bytes, every contract's owner must be this wallet, and
unlimited approvals or permission/resource delegation get a danger
action.
sendRawTransaction relayed any signed transaction a site handed it;
it now broadcasts only txids Aegis itself signed.
- signAndSendTransaction signed String(Uint8Array) ("1,2,3,..."), so
every dapp transaction got an invalid signature. Adapters gain
signBytes(), which signs the exact message bytes.
- v0 (VersionedTransaction) messages were parsed with the version byte
as the header; the shared parser handles legacy and v0.
- window.solana.signTransaction went through signMessage and its
"moves no SOL" overlay. It now has its own handler and overlay, and
signMessage refuses bytes that parse as a transaction (Phantom's rule),
since such a signature is a valid transaction signature.
- Overlays decode System transfers and SPL transfer / approve /
set-authority, and list everything else as not decoded.
- eth_sendTransaction dropped the calldata, gas and fee fields, so an
ERC-20 transfer went out as a 0-value send to the token contract and
any contract call was broadcast as something else. plan() now carries
data/gas/fee caps/nonce, estimates gas for calls, and the overlay
decodes transfer/approve/permit/setApprovalForAll, flags unlimited
approvals and calldata to a non-contract, and shows estimated vs max
fee.
- personal_sign signed the hex string ethers/viem send as literal text;
it now signs the decoded bytes.
- wallet_switchEthereumChain flipped the global selected wallet, so any
site could move every connected dapp to another chain. Chain is now
per origin; the sidebar selection no longer redirects a dapp.
- wallet_addEthereumChain silently persisted a connection for chains
Aegis already had, handing the address to any site. Adding a chain
no longer grants anything, and RPC URLs must be https.
- eth_sign (blind hash signing) is disabled, as in MetaMask.
Connecting without ticking "Always allow" stored nothing, so the
site's very next call (personal_sign, signTransaction, ...) failed with
"not connected". Plain Connect now grants the origin in memory until
Theseus restarts; "Always allow" still persists. Every bridge (BCH,
Tron, EVM, Solana) checks grants the same way, revoke clears both, and
the connected-sites list shows EVM/Solana grants and which ones are
session-only.
The 2026-09-13 audit of the dapp bridges found real signing bugs whose
fixes were never committed; 0.30.0 carries them, ported onto the current
add-on.
They had a row of their own with nothing else in it, which read as an
empty card with a stray button. Same layout as the Plug-ins list row now:
buttons beside the on/off switch.
The globe-chip menu was a native Electron menu — square corners, system
font, no theming beyond the OS's own context-menu paint. Replaces it with
a floating overlay WebContentsView (lang-picker.html + preload),
following the same pattern the engine picker and the popover already
use: rounded 12px surface, acid-tint accents on the current pin, soft
shadow, dark + light scheme, flush under the chip's bottom-right.
The content is organised around the user's intent — translate first,
pick a language second. The "Translate this page" row sits at the top
when it is actionable (web tab + supported source + supported target),
with the detected source and the target under the label so the user can
tell what the backend will do before they click. Once a page is
translated, that row flips to "Show original (<source>)". Below the
action strip is Automatic + the six supported languages, each with a
two-letter code chip in the left slot and a ✓ on the current pin.
Unsupported languages are hidden by default inside a collapsible "More
languages (translator coming later)" group — click to expand, click to
collapse; a pinned-unsupported auto-expands so its ✓ stays visible.
Plumbing matches engine-picker: deferred-load WebContentsView,
closeOnClickAway, setBounds anchored under the chip, picker renderer
reports its own content height after each render so the overlay
contracts and expands with the "More languages" toggle. State pushes
come from emitTranslateState (so the Translate / Show-original row
updates when a page finishes auto-translating with the picker open)
and from broadcastSettings (so a Settings-side language change
re-paints the ✓).
Verified end-to-end: picker loads, shows Automatic + 6 supported in the
default list and 18 greyed in the "More" group, repaints to "⟲ Show
original (Spanish)" after an auto-translate completes.
The chip menu showed every entry in WEBSITE_LANGUAGE_QUICK (24 rows, most
greyed with "— translator coming later") and the picker read as a wall
of coming-soon noise. The top strip now carries only the languages the
translator actually handles — Automatic plus the six supported ones
(en, es, fr, de, el, ru) — and everything else moves into a "More
languages (translator coming later)" submenu where the greyed rows live
without crowding the main menu. If the user's current pin is one of the
unsupported ones, it stays visible at the top so the ✓ reads at a
glance, not two levels deep.
Translation didn't follow a language change reliably:
- A page with no `<html lang>` left pageLang empty, which the auto-
translate hook took as "no translation needed" and skipped the entire
page. Now an empty source is still translated (the backend auto-detects
the real language), and the hook only skips when pageLang is known AND
matches the user's target.
- Changing the pin via Settings or the chip reloaded the active tab but
did not re-translate — the hook needs auto-offer on, and even then
a `pending` latch set by setWebsiteLanguage was wiped by the reload's
did-start-navigation reset. The `pending` bit now survives that reset,
so the did-finish-load hook translates unconditionally for an explicit
language switch (the user ASKING for a new language IS the request to
translate the current page too). A translated page is reverted before
the reload so the fresh HTML lands on original DOM, not a mix of old
translated nodes and new content. Verified end-to-end: an es→en auto-
translate followed by a pin to French takes the page to French in one
shot without the chip being touched.
Aegis was most of what was left of launch cost: its crypto and
WizardConnect deps block the main thread for ~0.6 s right after the first
frame. It now declares its panel and "activation": "on-demand"; the
dapp bridges are still on every page from the start, and the first page
call, panel open or wiz:// link starts it.
activate() returns a promise the host waits on, so the call that woke
Aegis finds WizardConnect and the mounted wallets. With a locked vault it
does not wait for the mount (derive blocks until unlock), so the page gets
the usual locked answer in ~0.7 s instead of after the host's 5 s limit.
Two things only work while Aegis runs: a live WizardConnect pairing (no one
else listens on its relays) and "stay unlocked" (which also opens
Settings > Passwords). While either is on, Aegis asks the host to start it
at launch, and withdraws the request when both are off. Pairings left
behind by a removed wallet do not count.
Boot trace, same profile, 3 warm runs: main thread blocked in the first
6 s 970-1040 ms -> 300-320 ms, longest block 605-667 ms -> 227-244 ms,
toolbar 1.34-1.61 s -> 0.83-0.87 s.
The main-world bridge is appended at document_start, which often runs
before the page has an <html> element. The append threw on null, and the
catch marked the origin as Trusted-Types-blocked in localStorage, so every
later visit skipped window.ethereum, window.solana and the EIP-6963
announcement on that site. On example.com it failed on 6 of 6 loads.
Wait for <html> with a MutationObserver (it fires at the microtask
checkpoint before the first parser-inserted script, so the bridge is still
first), remember only real Trusted Types refusals, and use a new key so the
origins wrongly marked by the old one get the bridge back.
The left-edge panels landed meanwhile, so a panel record now carries both
its side and replace-by-id; a manifest-declared panel may say side:left too,
or a dormant add-on would show its panel on the wrong edge until it starts.
Ships 08b101f (a quick-unlock PIN for the vault, shared with extensions
through api.vault.requestUnlock), 3fd0fe3 (extensions can open from the
left edge, beside the quick links), Pithos 0.3.0 bundled (c2df6e3: guided
setup, PIN gate, recovery phrase from the vault, on the left) and e1c5d91
(one language chip with "Translate this page" and automatic translation).
Extensions could only put panels in the right sidebar. An add-on can now
register a panel with side: "left": its icon joins the quick-links strip
(above the web-app links), and it opens in the strip's panel slot in its
own view with the sidebar preload, so the add-on bridge, events and the
widen/narrow controls work as on the right. A left panel and a quick-link
web app never share the slot; reopening keeps the panel's page and state.
Left panels drop out of the right sidebar and its dock. With the strip
turned off they fall back to the right sidebar so they stay reachable.
Pithos is the first: bundled copy rebuilt with side: "left".
The vault re-locks on every restart and only the master password opened
it, so every extension that needs it (Aegis, now Pithos) either asked for
the master password itself or grew its own PIN. Theseus now owns one:
- Settings > Passwords sets, changes or removes a 6-digit PIN. The PIN
wraps the master password (PBKDF2-SHA256, 600k iterations, AES-256-GCM)
and the result is sealed with the OS keystore (safeStorage: DPAPI /
Keychain / libsecret), so a copied vault-pin.json cannot be brute-forced
elsewhere. Every unlock still ends at the master password.
- Three wrong PINs in a row require the master password. The strike count
lives in the same file, so a restart does not reset it; a successful
master-password unlock does. A PIN whose password no longer opens the
vault (password changed) is dropped.
- unlock.html is Theseus's own prompt, over the whole window: PIN pad, or
the master password. Extensions call api.vault.requestUnlock({ reason })
(vault-derive capability) and get { ok } back; what the user typed never
reaches them. Settings' locked screen offers "Unlock with PIN" through
the same prompt.
Two chips carried the same word in two shapes — a globe (Accept-Language)
and a translate chip (chip lights when page lang differs) — both labelled
"RU" at the same time for a Russian user. The chip for translation is
gone. The globe menu now covers both: a "Translate this page from X to Y"
item appears at the top when the loaded page is in another supported
language, flipping to "Show original" while a translation is on screen.
The chip's own code still shows the user's language (EN, RU, …); its
tooltip switches to "Translated to <X>. Menu: Show original." when a
translation is up, so the one chip reads the whole state.
With "Translate automatically" on, Theseus translates in place on
did-finish-load the first time it sees a supported source + target
mismatch for the active tab — no chip-click needed. A `_tr.autoTried`
latch keeps it to one attempt per document (a failing backend doesn't
retry on every reflow), and the latch resets on did-start-navigation so
the next page gets a fresh shot. The setting copy in Settings › Language
now says "Translate automatically" instead of "Offer to translate", so
the switch's label matches the behaviour.
The picker (both in Settings and in the globe menu) still lists every
language in WEBSITE_LANGUAGE_QUICK, but entries whose base code isn't
on the translator backend (en, es, fr, de, el, ru today) are shown
greyed out with "— translator coming later", and "Other… (Accept-Language
only, no translation)" is explicit about what free-form tags buy you.
The menu is a roadmap, not a lie: a user picking one of the greyed
entries sets Accept-Language and nothing else surprises them.
Rebuilt from Pithos/ with scripts/build-theseus-addon.mjs. Pithos moves from a toolbar menu that opened a loopback tab to a left-sidebar panel. Existing installs get the same version over the extension update channel.
0.3.72 shipped without the Settings › General › Updates copy update:
"Theseus already checks the release manifest at boot and every 6h" is
accurate for a successful first check, but silent about the retry
backoff (8s, 30s, 2min, 10min, 30min) that fires when the startup
attempt is offline — on a slow or captive-portal connection the user
would see several checks in the first 43 minutes and the copy made
that look like a bug. The new wording owns the retry.
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).
Website language, offer-to-translate and the translator peers list used
to sit as three sub-sections inside General, and Privacy › Anti-
fingerprinting duplicated the language picker on top of them — three
places to edit the one languageMode/languageValue setting. Settings
grows its own Language entry in the sidebar now; everything about
language — the preferred-language picker, the auto-offer toggle, the
peer list, the API key — lives there, and the Privacy duplicate is
gone. The chip in the URL bar still edits the same setting, so the
toolbar surface is unchanged.
The copy for the picker ("Your language") now says what the setting
actually drives: it's sent as Accept-Language and it's the translator's
target. Legacy "hide"/"spoof" language modes migrate to Automatic on
first open of Settings (the picker only has Automatic / a tag / Other),
so a profile that still carries one of those from an older release
lands on a valid state the first time Settings opens.
Greek (el-GR) was already in the picker; this release's silentmode.st/
libre backend added `el` to --load-only so the translator now has real
en↔el support — the picker and the backend are in step.
Ships Pithos (the s3d control panel) as a built-in extension: the dock
menu opens it in a tab served from a loopback port, and "Stop s3d"
shuts the gateway down. Generated by Pithos/scripts/build-theseus-addon.mjs.
yaml is vendored under vendor/yaml/lib rather than node_modules/ or
dist/, because Theseus git-ignores both and a clean-worktree release
build would otherwise ship the add-on without its only dependency.
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.
panel.html loaded lib/jsqr.js synchronously: 257 KB and 10,105 lines of
vendored decoder parsed on every panel open, so on every hide/show, for a
feature most sessions never touch. It is now fetched the first time someone
imports a QR image, with concurrent callers sharing one load and a failed
load retryable rather than cached as a permanent rejection.
qr.js and panel.js get `defer`, so the browser can paint the (already dark)
document before executing 300 KB of panel.js. Order is preserved, so qr.js
is still defined before panel.js runs.
Parsed on open: 650 KB -> 399 KB.
This shortens the blank window but does not remove it. The white box itself
is Theseus-side: the sidebar panel's view is built as
new WebContentsView({ webPreferences: { preload: "sidebar-preload.js" } })
with no backgroundColor, and Electron defaults a view's background to white —
so white shows from view-attach until the page paints. Every other view in
the app passes a colour, and registerSidebarPanel takes only
{id, title, icon, page}, so an add-on cannot declare one. Not fixed here:
main.js belongs to the Theseus work in flight.
The translator client now ships with the right defaults for the actual
deployment: silentmode.st/libre (ICANN, via the main cert and no new
subdomain) is the primary peer; libre.x and lingua.x are registered on
BNS with `p` records that reverse-proxy back to the same backend; the
public LibreTranslate.com key-gated tier stays as the last-resort entry.
Two wiring fixes make the BNS fallback actually usable from Theseus:
1. translatorPostOnce rewrites the request URL through targetUrlFor
before fetching, so a peer whose host is a BNS name (libre.x) is
dispatched via the in-process bns:// handler — Chromium's net stack
has no way to resolve `.x` by itself.
2. serveBns's p-record branch now forwards the method, headers and body
of the original request to the upstream, not just a GET. Without
that, a POST /translate against libre.x arrived at the backend as
a GET with no body and 400'd — now the proxy is actually a reverse-
proxy, as the record type's name promises.
Verified end-to-end against the live silentmode.st/libre instance from a
fresh Theseus profile with a Spanish test page: both the direct
silentmode.st/libre peer and the libre.x -> bns:// -> serveP -> upstream
path translate the page and the revert path restores the originals.
