Local Dev cda17fc885 Aegis 0.32.0: tie the PIN to the TPM, never store it unsealed
A 6-digit PIN behind PBKDF2 + DPAPI falls in minutes to anything that
can open DPAPI (malware running as the user, a disk image plus the
Windows password). The PIN is now also the authorization value of a
TPM key from the Microsoft Platform Crypto Provider; the key releases a
secret mixed with PBKDF2(pin), so the stored blob alone opens nothing
and the chip's own lockout (32 failures, then one per 10 minutes)
limits guesses however the blob was obtained. Reached through Windows
PowerShell's CNG classes with the PIN on stdin, so no native module.
Machines without a TPM keep the software PIN, and Settings now says
plainly what that protects against.

A PIN is no longer stored when there is no real OS keystore (including
Linux's basic_text backend, whose key is a constant); a pre-0.31 plain
blob is sealed or deleted and remembered, so the panel can tell the
user to change the master password if the profile was ever copied.

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.
