Theseus Navigator — Silent Mode's Electron browser with the Ariadne resolver built in.
Amends DESIGN-integrated-wallet.md §0 ("one account per profile in v1") with
a formal path to supporting external key imports (BIP39 seeds and raw WIFs)
alongside the primary HD purpose-subtree. Motivated by the user's 15-wallet
Deviant chipnet keystore now encrypted under the same master-password model
that Theseus is designed around.
Key discipline:
- SEPARATE storage file (wallet-imports.enc), same PBKDF2/AES-256-GCM crypto,
same master password, distinct KDF salt. Imports cannot compromise the
primary seed and vice versa; corruption of one file does not damage the
other.
- The imports schema mirrors Deviant's chipnet-keystore/1 shape (cashaddr /
label / category / source / path / seed / wif) so import is a 1:1 field
copy, not a translation.
- Every import stores the raw seed + BIP44 path (or the raw WIF) and derives
addresses DIRECTLY via HDKey.fromMasterSeed, bypassing the vault's
purposes/wallet HKDF subtree. This is essential: without the bypass,
pasting a mnemonic re-hashes the seed through HKDF and produces DIFFERENT
addresses than the source wallet (see memory
bchwallet-vault-root-derivation).
- No bcnr.importWallet() ever; imports are settings-page only.
- Sign modal grows an account picker with category chips; per-origin
"recently used" pre-selection with red-flag on category change.
Also introduces:
- bcnr.requestAccount({ account?, category? }) — backwards compatible
- bcnr.getAccounts({ category? })
- Stale-import detection (source-file cashaddr comparison on unlock)
- Sequencing: M.1 (generic import) → M.2 (import from Deviant keystore) →
M.3 (API extensions) → M.4 (stale detection). M.1 is load-bearing;
everything else composes.
Companion to Option A which shipped separately as the cross-repo fall-through
in Argus/src/lib/wallet.js.

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
BUILD-ROADMAP.md Stage 5.
