Theseus Navigator — Silent Mode's Electron browser with the Ariadne resolver built in.
8d02a2464b
0.3.50's relocateProfile checked for %APPDATA%\Theseus Navigator\, but
Electron's userData path is derived from app.getName(), which reads
package.json's top-level "name" ("theseus-navigator") because there is
no top-level productName — the "productName": "Theseus Navigator" in
this file lives under "build", where electron-builder reads it for the
installer, not where Electron reads it for the runtime path. So the
folder the user's Theseus writes to is %APPDATA%\theseus-navigator\,
never %APPDATA%\Theseus Navigator\.
On 0.3.50 that meant relocateProfile found nothing at its search path,
returned the new Theseus\ location, and Electron happily created a
fresh empty profile there. The user's addons, vault, bookmarks and
settings stayed in theseus-navigator\ but the running Theseus was no
longer looking at them. Losing the vault is not something the user
can recover from.
Check both candidate names — the one the code was written for and the
one that actually exists — and migrate whichever is present. If the
new Theseus\ already exists (Windows fresh installs after 0.3.51), we
leave it alone.

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.
