Local Dev 5edf25e327 Ship Theseus 0.0.2 b62ecf52 (shield green + picker→Search + toggle refactor)
Rebuild + redeploy of the prior commit (9b9c93c). Version bumped from
0.0.1 to 0.0.2 (parallel-session bump in package.json). New hashes live
on dl.silentmode.st + Sia bns/silentmode/:

  TheseusNavigator-Setup-0.0.2.exe
  sha256 b62ecf528dc672a07a144af5a8bbb5772b2853b4ad5eec5926bdc6247792ad53

  TheseusNavigator-0.0.2-portable.exe
  sha256 ba80a808446bd75a6b649d93094af9e21be38476dd23980bad7ac0e228a6ce76

Also snapshotted the parallel-session 0.0.1 (81831c08 / b4807aa1) that
was live just before this ship into /opt/silent-mode/dl/_prev/ so it's
available as a rollback alongside the earlier 418e7bba / 208b059a /
036e94c7 builds.

Manifest hashes were previously updated by the parallel session to a
STALE 0.0.2 build (b3a81047 / 37679d29) that never made it live; those
have been overwritten with the actual live hashes now.

On-chain pointer at releases.silentmode.bch unchanged — publishes the
manifest URL, so BCNR clients see the new hashes automatically without
a wallet spend.

PENDING.md updated with the new rollback list.

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 .bch resolution — no system daemon, no NRPT, no OS trust-store changes; reuses bns.js from the BNS repo as a library.
  • Record handling: h render, ip connect, p/s3 via in-app gateway, u redirect.
  • TLS via cert-verify hook (Electron setCertificateVerifyProc) against the BNS root / on-chain tls fingerprints — 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.
