Theseus Navigator — Silent Mode's Electron browser with the Ariadne resolver built in.
dc7dc75bcc
User report (2026-10-04): "Plug-Ins/Ariadne's Thread is not working properly, it doesn't switch on / off the daemon. Other PC can't turn it on, and other browsers on it don't recognize BNS names." Root cause. ariadneSetState's elevated script hard-coded two names, 'BNS Resolver Daemon' and 'BNS Sia Bridge'. Those are the pre-0.2 names and the All-users / All-browsers compat names. A machine that received a fresh 0.2.0 install under Just-me scope has NO task with either of those names -- the resolver there is 'Ariadne BNS Resolver (<user>)' and the indexer is 'Ariadne BNS Indexer (<user>)'. The toggle silently did nothing (exit 2 handling returned 'no BNS Resolver Daemon'), and the panel's state query -- which already knows about 'Ariadne BNS Indexer' -- still displayed the previous state because it was reading the correct task but nothing had actually started it. Fix. The inner script now enumerates scheduled tasks dynamically and anchors a regex at: ^(Ariadne BNS Indexer |Ariadne BNS Indexer \(.+\) |Ariadne BNS Resolver \(.+\) |BNS Resolver Daemon |BNS Sia Bridge)$ That hits every Ariadne task across all three install schemes without touching the user's own unrelated 'BNS Indexer' task (which has no 'Ariadne' prefix -- memory://ariadne-task-names). Enable/Start (or Stop/Disable) runs against each match; exit code is: 0 = at least one task accepted the verb 2 = no Ariadne task found at all (needs reinstall) 3 = tasks found but none accepted (surface in a clearer error) Note. Full 0.2.0 integration (named-pipe IPC via Argus/src/lib/bns-pipe.js, scope-aware policy.json path) ships via step 3 on branch claude/agitated-bell-bd4ac2 (see TheseusNavigator/DESIGN-bns-indexer-service.md). This commit fixes the specific toggle bug on master so the user's "can't turn it on" symptom is resolved WITHOUT waiting for that larger merge. The 0.1.13 settings-panel sections (collision policy / sources / status-report via http://127.0.0.1/api/status) still display 'Daemon unreachable' honestly on 0.2.0 installs; they'll be superseded by the pipe-based status feed when step 3 lands. |

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
