Home cards: DEFAULT_HOME_CARDS replaced with the .x sibling grid the
user asked for -- hello.bch, siatest.bch (the "types of BCDN" pair),
then silentmode.x / theseus.x / sirius.x / hephaestus.x /
prometheus.x / helios.x / hermes.x. Existing installs with a saved
home-cards.json keep their edits (defaults only seed fresh profiles).
Search engine picker sync: user reported the toolbar dropdown listed
engines as active that Settings > Search showed differently. Root
cause: settings.searchEngine could be pointing at an id not in the
currently-enabled set (stale settings.json after DEFAULT_ENABLED
changes across versions). loadSettings now normalizes on boot -- if
searchEngine isn't enabled, fall back to enabled[0]; and
installedEngines gets unioned with enabledEngines so the two lists
can't disagree in ways that make toolbar and Settings render
different rows.
Proxy auth support in the framework: setSessionProxy accepts
`{ proxyRules, auth: { username, password } }` or an inline
`socks5://user:pass@host:port` URL. When creds are present, the
handler strips them from the URL, installs a session#login listener
on the default session that answers with them, then calls setProxy.
Chromium's SOCKS5 client doesn't consume proxy auth (known Chromium
limitation), but HTTP proxies work; SOCKS-based extensions need to
gate by IP allowlist at their server. Log line masks the password.
Update chip note: the "download opens in a different browser" was
0.2.0-era behavior. 0.2.1 rewired it to session.downloadURL. Anyone
still seeing it needs to install 0.2.1+ once.
Deployed: scp + sia-upload both trees, verified HEAD 200 + manifest
0.2.4 live.

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
