Local Dev 0f823ba583 Theseus: Firefox-style search picker (favicons, catalog, scan) 
- Custom engine dropdown as a floating overlay view (engine-picker.html) that
  renders REAL favicons per engine — a native <select> can't show images.
- Larger catalog (DuckDuckGo/Google/Brave/Bing/Startpage/Yandex/Ecosia/Mojeek/
  SearXNG/Wikipedia/Perplexity); Settings has a favicon checklist to choose
  which appear in the dropdown (enabledEngines), plus manual add/remove.
- OpenSearch "scan": pages advertising a search engine surface an
  "Add <site>'s search" entry in the dropdown.
- Toolbar search box now just a magnifier button that opens the dropdown
  (no per-engine icon in the bar).

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 .bch resolution — no system daemon, no NRPT, no OS trust-store changes; reuses bns.js from the BNS repo as a library.
  • Record handling: h render, ip connect, p/s3 via in-app gateway, u redirect.
  • TLS via cert-verify hook (Electron setCertificateVerifyProc) against the BNS root / on-chain tls fingerprints — 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.
