Theseus Navigator — Silent Mode's Electron browser with the Ariadne resolver built in.
034d30895f
Reported: the Screenshot dropdown produces a blank white PNG "every time".
Verified end-to-end via CDP: the FIRST capture on a real page (silentmode.st)
worked (221 KB, real pixels). Every capture after that came back as a
uniform-white 1920×899 PNG (~24 KB, all bytes 255/255/255/255 confirmed by
canvas getImageData in the editor tab).
Root cause: api.captureTab reads activeTab(), which after the first successful
run is the editor.html tab the add-on just opened. CDP Page.captureScreenshot
on the editor's own tab happily snapshots its still-blank canvas, and the
addon writes that white PNG into scratch → opens a new editor showing it →
next re-capture snapshots THAT editor → all-white feedback loop.
Fix: track the last active tab that isn't an add-on-owned page (or the
Settings tab) in setActive(), and have captureTab fall back to it when the
current active tab has an addonId or settings flag. Last resort: the first
non-addon non-settings tab in the list. If none exists, throw a clear "open
a page you'd like to shoot first" error instead of returning white pixels.
No new capability; no manifest change; addons keep calling
api.captureTab({mode}) exactly as before. Ships in the next Theseus release.

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
.bchresolution — no system daemon, no NRPT, no OS trust-store changes; reusesbns.jsfrom the BNS repo as a library. - Record handling:
hrender,ipconnect,p/s3via in-app gateway,uredirect. - TLS via cert-verify hook (Electron
setCertificateVerifyProc) against the BNS root / on-chaintlsfingerprints — 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
