- pdf-editor 0.1.1 → 0.1.2: manifest.icon is a data:image/svg+xml red PDF
document badge (dock renders it as <img>). Same on toolbar-menu.icon.
Item-level icons dropped — those go through the native OS menu that
doesn't render data URIs.
- translate 0.1.0 → 0.1.1: default LibreTranslate mirror was
translate.argosopentech.com, which is now a dead domain — panel just
said "Failed" on every request. Switched default to
translate.disroot.org (currently up), added a datalist of known
mirrors, and a one-shot migration off the dead default so existing
installs recover on next load.
- docx-editor 0.1.0 → 0.1.1: manifest.icon is a data:image/svg+xml blue
DOC document badge, index.js no longer overrides it with 📝, and the
panel header uses the same inline SVG. Same rationale as pdf-editor —
every extension was rendering as either 📄 or 📝, so PDF and Word
were visually identical to the Notepad.
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.
