Local Dev 89c80a0103 Theseus navigator UI overhaul, BNS-only indexer, site restructure 
Theseus Navigator:
- Firefox-style toolbar: SVG back/fwd/reload/home buttons
- security padlock badge in the address bar opens a floating site-info
  overlay VIEW (on top of the page, never pushes content down)
- Edge-style favorites bar (shown only on the new-tab/home page)
- search-engine picker (DuckDuckGo/Google/Bing/Brave/Startpage)
- Theseus logo moved right, opens Settings; native menu removed
- address bar doubles as search; bottom resolver status line

Argus:
- BNS-only indexer: an electrum endpoint over a bare BCHN node
  (watches just the beacon, caches txs so no txindex needed) + test
- registry lifecycle / portfolio / name-index modules

Site restructure (nav/apps/store/hermes/choose) + runbook notes.

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.
