Theseus Navigator — Silent Mode's Electron browser with the Ariadne resolver built in.
Went looking for a performance fix and found a correctness bug underneath it.
getTx() slims each transaction on the way into the cache, and the slim shape
kept only { value, scriptHex } — dropping vout.tokenData. That field is where
the server reports CashTokens. It is NOT in scriptPubKey.hex, which Fulcrum
returns with the token prefix already stripped. So the classify pass fetched
one transaction per UTXO, looked for a prefix that was never there, and
concluded "no token" every single time.
Measured against a real chipnet wallet (130 UTXOs, 91 of them token-bearing):
the old pass cost 54 requests for that address and found 0 tokens; sampling
12 of those transactions, exactly 0 had a scriptPubKey starting with the
token prefix. On the faucet-fed address with 28,289 UTXOs it was ~28k
requests, still finding nothing — which is what made the wallet look hung.
So HD BCH wallets have never shown CashTokens. 0.15.0 fixed the imported
adapter, which reads token_data off listunspent, and I took the HD path's
silence for an empty wallet.
Now: when the server negotiated protocol >= 1.5, listunspent carries
token_data and a UTXO WITHOUT it is definitively not token-bearing, so the
whole set is classified from the one call we already make — 1 request instead
of 28,289. Below 1.5 the fallback fetches parents as before but reads
vout.tokenData (present even at 1.4) and only decodes a prefix as a last
resort, so it is correct now too.
Both routes are reconciled onto one shape. They speak different dialects:
the decoder yields a numeric capability (0/1/2) labelled
immutable/mutable/minting, while Electrum sends a string and calls 0 "none".
Left alone, an identical UTXO would have described itself differently
depending on which server answered. The decoder's vocabulary wins, and the
Certificates pane treats immutable as the quiet default so only capabilities
that change what the holder can do get a tag.
txCache is versioned and dropped once: entries written by the old shape carry
no token information, and an absent field cannot be told apart from "no
token", so a warm cache on a pre-1.5 server would have reported a token
wallet as empty.
Verified against the live wallet: one request, 91 token UTXOs, 46 categories,
17 assets, 51 certificates — matching what the panel reports — with
capability labels normalised (5 immutable, 28 mutable, 18 minting).

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
BUILD-ROADMAP.md Stage 5.
