Lunie: Create separate process to display/capture seed words.

[NodeGuy]

The seed words are the highest-value asset in Voyager. See the threat model.

Create a new temporary process separate from the Renderer for temporarily opening a window to display or capture the seed words and send them to Gaia-Lite:

The new process should:

• depend on no modules (including Vue, etc.)
• employ hand-written HTML, CSS, and JavaScript
• be small so that it can be audited easily

[jbibla]

depend on no modules

does this exclude the module for actually generating the seeds / random words?

HTML, CSS

sounds dreamy 😸

[NodeGuy]

The seed is generated by Gaia-Lite, not a module.

Sounds like a good idea. :)

to clarify:

• we are going to display a new window to the user that will _only_ contain their seed words. can this window contain a logo / image too?
• we will need to alter the design of the sign up session modal

questions:

• will the user / process be able to access the clipboard?
• will the user be able to access this window again? or is this a one time thing?
• we will need to alter the design of the recover-with-seed modal?

should be OK. in doubt we can inline the images as base64

we will need to alter the design of the sign up session modal

yes

will the user / process be able to access the clipboard?

better not. this is just attack surface.

will the user be able to access this window again? or is this a one time thing?

one time thing

we will need to alter the design of the recover-with-seed modal?

I guess we will need to have the same process for seed recovery, yes.

[NodeGuy]

Let's spike this first.

[NodeGuy]

I'm going to use the existing CSS from Voyager because otherwise this would be too much work.

we're not going to implement this in the browser for the foreseeable future. will close for now.
