A bundled add-on that answers cookie consent dialogs, rejecting all but
the essentials by default (or accepting, if the user prefers the banner
simply gone), so pages open without one. Built on DuckDuckGo's
autoconsent (MPL-2.0): its rule bundle covers hundreds of consent
managers, and a reject-button heuristic handles unknown banners in
reject mode. The library runs through the page-inject slot in every
http(s) frame's isolated world; the add-on hands each frame the user's
settings and the rules, and counts what was handled per site for the
panel, which also excludes a site with one click.
build-inject.js assembles inject.js from the library in node_modules
plus the glue, and copies the compact rules and licence into the add-on
so a rule update can ship through the add-on channel.
Host side: page-inject scripts get theseus.evalInPage for the few rules
that need the page's own JavaScript (they already reach the page via
contextBridge, so no new trust tier), and api.tabs is open to
page-inject add-ons as well as request-filter ones.
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.
