Theseus Navigator — Silent Mode's Electron browser with the Ariadne resolver built in.
- password-vault: createVault takes { messengerRootHex } opt; unlockVault
surfaces messengerRoot (null on legacy vaults, so nothing regresses);
saveVault persists it; bindMessengerRoot mutates an unlocked state for a
later attach-mnemonic-to-existing-vault flow.
- main.js password-setup: when the user provides a mnemonic, ALSO compute
seedToPurposeRoot(seed, "messenger/0") and store it. Random-seed vaults
stay as-is (no mnemonic = no messenger root to store).
- main.js hermes-init: two modes now — { mnemonic } (unchanged) or
{ useVault: true } (uses vaultState.messengerRoot directly, no mnemonic).
Response includes source: "vault" | "mnemonic" for the panel to badge.
- main.js hermes-can-use-vault: cheap availability probe used by the panel
to decide whether to show the vault sign-in shortcut.
- hermes.js: nostrKeyFromRoot(root) accepts 32-byte Uint8Array or 64-char
hex; produces the same {sk, pkHex, npub} as nostrKeyFromMnemonic for the
same seed (unit-verified: derivation paths converge on f2c92519...67f4).
- Messages panel: "Sign in with password vault" button appears above the
mnemonic entry iff the vault is unlocked AND was set up from a mnemonic.
The mnemonic path stays as the always-available fallback — bind is
genuinely optional, not required.

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
