Theseus Navigator — Silent Mode's Electron browser with the Ariadne resolver built in.
Setup 606529ea9f1de9dc1ec5012534dda31b06919245f19f934ee1b9f4f10385a5bc Portable ed89547a155e998278beccf21f9807841ac6267f75cdcbbead81b80acfee0adc Fixes: - Classic form-GET search engines (Google, Brave, Bing, Startpage, Yandex, Ecosia, Mojeek, ...) now show results. The tab's will-navigate intercept was dropping the query string on every dotted-host navigation, so /search?q=foo landed on /search. DDG only appeared to work because its in-page search uses pushState + XHR and never triggered will-navigate. - Address bar reflects the target URL immediately on Enter instead of showing the previous page's URL until did-navigate fires. New: - Link-hover status bar: Firefox / Chrome-style pill at the bottom- left of the window showing the href when the pointer is over a link, hidden when it leaves. Auto-sizes to text, cleared on tab switch, tracks window resize. Also on-VPS: bns-gateway auto-index directory paths (f43ec61) so silentmode.bch/tools/ returns the tools page instead of NoSuchKey. Deployed: - scp installers + releases-manifest.json to /opt/silent-mode/dl/ - scp tools/index.html + releases/index.html to /opt/silent-mode/site/ - sia-upload of ../site to bns/silentmode/ - verified: HEAD 200 on both installers, manifest reports 0.0.5, silentmode.st/tools shows the 0.0.5 buttons, Sia mirror ditto. The 0.0.4 update-check chip should now surface itself for existing installs on their next launch. |

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
