Theseus Navigator — Silent Mode's Electron browser with the Ariadne resolver built in.

Three gaps, one theme: the editor could produce a file but not decide where it went, what format it was in, or look like anything in the dock. **Save as…** opens a real file dialog, and the extension typed there picks the format. Save then writes to that file instead of dropping another copy in Downloads every time. The renderer never names a path: the dialog returns an opaque token, and the add-on will only write to a path a dialog actually returned. An extension page is the least trusted thing in the add-on, and "write these bytes anywhere" is not a capability it needs. **PDF** goes through Chromium's own print pipeline in a hidden window — the same engine as Ctrl+P — on the paper size read out of the document's own sectPr. For that to match what the user was looking at, the page's typography had to stop living in editor.css, which the export window can't reach: it moves to lib/doc-css.js and both surfaces read the one string. The result embeds subsetted fonts, keeps images, and turns hyperlinks into real PDF link annotations. **The icon** is ours. Microsoft's Word mark is a trademark and borrowing it to look official is not something a browser that talks about sovereignty should do. icon.svg says "text document" in its own words — a turned corner, a heading rule, body lines, a pilcrow badge in Silent Mode green — and `npm run icons` derives the PNGs and addon.json's copy from it, so there is one drawing rather than several that drift. Also: the scratch folder follows the profile rename to extensions-data/ via the api.dataDir the host now provides, instead of creating a stale addons-data/ beside it. |

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.
