Theseus Navigator — Silent Mode's Electron browser with the Ariadne resolver built in.

Opening a second .docx used to mean a second browser tab: a whole ribbon, banner and footer repeated, with one ✕ at the far end of a row that also held the file's name. The name looked like a tab and nothing about it behaved like one. Now the editor holds documents the way the browser holds pages. A strip under the toolbar carries one tab per open document — icon, name, unsaved dot, its own ✕ — plus a + to open another. Middle-click closes, Ctrl+W closes, Ctrl+Tab cycles, and right-click (or the caret on the tab under the pointer) drops a menu: Duplicate, Open in the default app, Show in folder, Close others, Close. The gestures are the browser's because that is the tab strip every user of this editor already knows. Under it, one ProseMirror view is handed a different state per document rather than one view per tab, and the module-level "current document" variables are marshalled in and out on a switch. That keeps the change out of every function that touches the current document, at the price of one list — DOC_FIELDS in captureActive/adoptDoc — that has to stay complete. A variable missed there leaks one document's state into another, which would look like the editor corrupting a file, so it is called out in a comment. Closing the last document closes the editor tab, the way closing a browser's last tab closes the window; an empty ribbon staring at the user is not a state worth having. The add-on hands a newly opened document to the editor that is already up and fronts it, falling back to opening a tab if no editor acknowledges within 900ms — so a crashed or closed editor degrades to exactly the old behaviour rather than swallowing the document. |

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.
