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

The page sat marooned in the middle of a wide window with dark space either side of it. It is now drawn at the size the document actually claims — A4 stays A4, margins come from its own sectPr — and CSS `zoom` scales that to fit, defaulting to Fit width with a control in the footer and Ctrl +/-/0. Scaling rather than widening is deliberate. A page stretched to the window would break every line somewhere different from where the printed page breaks it, and an editor whose whole claim is that it shows you the document should not lie about where the lines end. `zoom` also beats a transform here: it affects layout, so the board scrolls correctly and ProseMirror's coordinate maths keeps working. Ubuntu and Fraunces now ship in fonts/, because Windows has neither and a font offered in the ribbon that the machine lacks is a font the user picks and then cannot see. Fetched once by `npm run fonts` and committed, never at runtime: an extension in a browser built around not phoning home should not ask a font CDN what a document looks like every time one is opened. Two things had to be worked around. On file:// Chromium registers @font-face rules and then refuses to fetch the files — the family appears in document.fonts and every glyph still renders in the fallback — so the add-on reads the woff2 and hands the page a stylesheet with them inlined as data URLs. The PDF export needed the same treatment for a different reason: its print window runs from a temp folder, where a relative url() resolves to nothing, which would have quietly undone the one-stylesheet-for-both promise that lib/doc-css.js exists to keep. If either path fails, the ribbon labels those families "(not available)" rather than implying otherwise. About 700 KB, most of it Ubuntu's Cyrillic and Greek — kept because the documents this is used on are not all English. Licences ship alongside. |

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
