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

Blank editor + broken buttons root cause: index.js was writing the capture to <userData>/addons-data/screenshot-scratch/<name>.png and passing "?src=file://<that path>" to editor.html. The editor lives at file:///<userData>/addons/screenshot/editor.html — different directory tree under file://. Chromium's file:// origin policy treats those as different origins and quietly refuses the <img> load, so init()'s loadImage() rejects, the canvas never gets an image, and every tool after that operates on a still-empty 300×150 default canvas — the tools appear to work but produce no visible output because the base image never landed. The sidebar version we replaced set `previewImg.src = dataUrl` (a base64 data URL) directly, which has no origin and just worked; the tab version regressed by adding the file hop. Fix keeps the scratch file for the recent-captures ring but hands the raw capture through the add-on's per-add-on kv store (`__pending` key). Same store, same origin scoping, no cross-directory read: index.js writes via api.storage.set from main; editor.js reads via window.silentmode.storage.get through the tab preload (packaged since 0.3.27). Fallback path retained for "openRecent" callers still passing ?src=… — those will need their own fix in a follow-up. Bumped to 0.2.4 and signed for the OTA endpoint — first real independent add-on ship: no Theseus release needed to fix this, 0.3.27 installs pick up 0.2.4 via the boot-time signed-update poll. |

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
