Theseus Navigator — Silent Mode's Electron browser with the Ariadne resolver built in.
Everything the editor put on a page was final. A text stamp could not be corrected without deleting it and typing it again, nothing could be resized, and the only way to remove a mark was a Delete key nobody had been told about — the selection drew a dashed box and offered no action at all. Placing a stamp also left its tool armed, so the next click stamped a second copy. Marks are now editable objects. Selecting one gives it grab handles and a small bar pinned above it: delete and duplicate for anything, and for text an edit button, a size stepper and bold and italic. Double-clicking text reopens it for rewriting in place rather than adding a second one. Placing a text stamp or a signature drops straight back to the select tool with the new mark live, which is both what people expect and what puts it immediately within reach of a nudge. Resizing is one function over every mark type rather than a special case per kind: a handle drag produces a new bounding box, and the mark is mapped from its old box into that one. Text scales by font size instead of stretching its glyphs, signatures keep their aspect on a corner, and lines offer their two endpoints instead of a box that would let you stretch them in ways you never aimed at. A whole gesture lands on the undo stack as one step. Selecting a thin mark used to mean clicking its outline exactly — about one screen pixel. Each stroked mark now carries an invisible fat copy of itself purely to catch the pointer. New marks to go with it: underline and strike-through, which share the highlight's text-selection geometry and differ only in where the rule sits; a plain line; and a fill toggle for rectangles and ellipses. Bold and italic mean three more Helvetica variants embedded at save time, since a PDF treats them as separate fonts rather than as a style. Double-click is detected from the pointer stream rather than from a dblclick listener, because selecting a mark calls preventDefault() on the pointerdown and that suppresses the compatibility mouse events the browser would have synthesised the dblclick from. |

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
