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

Three tied-together fixes:
1) captureTab moves from WebContents.capturePage() to CDP
Page.captureScreenshot for every mode (visible / full / region).
Blank-screenshot symptom: after a toolbar-menu selection, the OS
popup teardown left the tab view marked occluded for a few frames
on some Windows setups, so capturePage() snapshotted a
stale/transparent frame at the correct dimensions — no 0x0, no
retry hit. CDP forces a fresh composite regardless of occlusion
state (same path the "Full page" mode was already using) and
returns a base64 PNG directly; PNG dimensions come out of the
IHDR chunk (bytes 16-24). Attach only when nothing else has, and
detach after only if WE attached, so an open DevTools stays
attached.
2) Editor gets a Discard button. Toolbar picks up an "×" glyph next
to Save/Copy that closes the editor tab and drops the working
screenshot. Top-level Escape now falls through the same path
after unwinding an in-flight text placement or crop rectangle. A
new "addon-tab-close" IPC lets an add-on's own tab close itself
(main matches the sender's webContents id against the tab list,
so a page can only close its own tab); window.silentmode.closeTab()
exposes it from addon-tab-preload.js.
3) Manual update controls in Settings > Extensions. New "Check for
updates" button at the top of the Extensions surface calls the
same signed-update polling the boot timer runs; the result is
surfaced inline ("All extensions are up to date" / "N updates
staged; restart Theseus to apply"). A "Pending updates" box
below lists what's in <userData>/addons-updates-staged/ so the
user knows what will be promoted on next restart.
Toolbar-menu popup settle bumped from 120 ms to 250 ms with an
explicit win.focus() in the popup close callback — the previous
window wasn't enough on slower Windows setups. CDP capture no longer
depends on this delay anyway, but the settle still helps any add-on
that does DOM work in its click handler before capture.
Screenshot add-on bumped 0.2.2 → 0.2.3 (Discard button; capture
fixes come from the host, not the add-on).

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
