Theseus Navigator — Silent Mode's Electron browser with the Ariadne resolver built in.
a3b20a2446
Builds on the previous Hermes sessions (NIP-17 crypto + chipnet hermes.bch
+ Theseus Messages window) to turn the flat inbox into something usable.
main.js (hermes block):
- Persistent inbox per identity at
<userData>/hermes/<pkHex>/inbox.jsonl (append-only JSONL, replayed on
init). Read-state at <userData>/hermes/<pkHex>/read.json so unread
badges survive restarts.
- Address book at <userData>/hermes/contacts.json: list / add / update /
remove. hermes-contacts-add resolves .bch name OR npub OR hex pk,
canonicalises, writes.
- Reverse-resolve consults contacts first, chain second: a user-curated
nickname wins over the on-chain np lookup.
- hermes-send also records the outgoing message to the inbox so thread
view shows both sides (only when at least one relay accepted).
- Inbox messages carry direction + peerPkHex + peerName so the renderer
can group by thread without re-doing the pairing logic.
- --messages CLI flag opens the panel at launch (first instance via
whenReady, second-instance via handleLaunch) so the dev harness and
power users don't need Ctrl+Shift+M.
- Dev-only auto-init: THESEUS_HERMES_DEV_MNEMONIC env, gated on
THESEUS_USER_DATA so it refuses to touch a production profile.
- HERMES_INBOX_LIMIT raised 200 -> 2000 now that history actually sticks.
messages-preload.js:
- Adds hermes.contacts.{list, add, update, remove} and
hermes.markThreadRead; status + onMessage/onStatus unchanged.
messages.html:
- Replaces the flat inbox with a two-column layout: contact list (search
+ unread badges + last-message preview) on the left, selected thread
on the right with sender bubbles, timestamps, inline Enter-to-send
compose, remove-contact affordance.
- .bch suffix stripped from displayed names (TLD is noise in chat UI;
other TLDs stay as disambiguation).
- Mark-thread-read fires on open; vault-bind path kept intact.

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.
