BCH-teal #0AC18E is ~2.9:1 on white — great for filled backgrounds and
tints, marginal for small text. Introduce --acid-text (dark mode: same
as --acid, light mode: #253A49 BCH-dark = ~12:1 on white). Rewrote
every text usage in settings.html to var(--acid-text):
- .brand (⛓ Theseus in sidebar)
- .side a.active (selected section)
- .btn text (Check for updates / add engine)
- .engcat .cat .add:hover text
- inline <b style="color:var(--acid)"> in the Ariadne status + Update
status renders
Fills, borders, and background tints stay var(--acid) so the BCH-green
brand splash is preserved everywhere it works. Also drops the manual
.brand override in the light-media block — no longer needed since the
variable does the job.
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.
