Theseus Navigator — Silent Mode's Electron browser with the Ariadne resolver built in.
Bundled screenshot addon bump: - version 0.2.1 → 0.2.2 - palette grows from 5 to 8 colors: adds Orange (#ff9500), Blue (#0a84ff), Purple (#bf5af2) alongside acid/red/yellow/white/black — common annotation colors that were conspicuously missing - updateURL swings from the aspirational addons.silentmode.st (which never resolved) to the live gateway URL https://navigate.st/bns/theseus.x/extensions/screenshot/updates.json, where the operator's first signed update entry is now published The gateway URL is deliberate over the bare `theseus.x/...` form: the add-on updater runs from Node's main-process https module, which uses the OS resolver. On installs without Ariadne's Thread the OS can't resolve theseus.x (BNS-only TLD), so the poll would silently fail; the navigate.st gateway resolves via standard DNS and forwards to the same BNS-backed Sia content, so every install reaches the endpoint. First signed update is live at: https://navigate.st/bns/theseus.x/extensions/screenshot/updates.json https://navigate.st/bns/theseus.x/extensions/screenshot/screenshot-0.2.2.tar.gz signed 59a35370fdbc9d1e24834fa26c7765d27e8763fe928bfa23b202ca666a6a6973 by the ops key baked into 0.3.19. End-to-end verified via scratchpad/decoupling-test/verify-live.mjs against the live endpoint: fetch, sig-verify, download, sha-verify, extract, stage, promote, backup — all pass. Installs polling the previous updateURL (addons.silentmode.st) get this new URL only after their bundled copy is refreshed to 0.2.2, which means either a Theseus release with 0.2.2 bundled (0.3.20+) or a signed update at the old URL that carries the URL change (impossible because addons.silentmode.st doesn't resolve). Ship a Theseus release that bundles this 0.2.2 to activate the update path on existing installs; from then on the endpoint self-perpetuates via the theseus.x URL. |

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
