A free-software, consensus-safe Namecoin explorer derived from janoside/btc-rpc-explorer with Namecoin-specific support layered on top: - Full name-op aware mempool view (name_pending-backed, bucketed by op kind; per-name pending panel on /name/<name>). - Detection and pretty rendering of ifa-0001 §"import" references between names, with clickable links to import targets. - id/<name> records and d/<name> Nostr blocks linked to NIP-19 npubs (with njump.me deep-links), plus the implied <localPart>@<host>.bit NIP-05 identifier and publisher-preferred relays. - Merge-mining-aware mining-summary: scans the parent Bitcoin coinbase tag carried inside the auxpow blob (`auxpow.tx.vin[0].coinbase`), surfacing the actual NMC mining pool instead of "Unknown" the way most upstream-only explorers do. Source: https://github.com/mstrofnone/nmc-rpc-explorer Upstream PR queue: namecoin/nmc-rpc-explorer namecoin#13–namecoin#19 The Tor endpoint shares the same hidden-service identity as relay.testls.bit (port 8080 multiplexed under one HiddenServiceDir), so an Amethyst client that already has the relay configured can reach the explorer through the same circuit it's already using.

Adds an entry to /explorers for a free-software, consensus-safe Namecoin explorer derived from janoside/btc-rpc-explorer with Namecoin-specific support layered on top.
Why list it
Namecoin currently has only one free-software, consensus-safe explorer in the top section (Cyphrs). This adds a second, with a complementary feature set:
/mempool-name-ops) — every name_new, name_firstupdate, and name_update queued for the next block, bucketed by op kind, backed by Namecoin Core'sname_pendingRPC.importreference detection per ifa-0001 §"import" — references rendered as clickable links to import targets (no recursive resolution; just discovery).id/<name>records into a typed key/value table; Nostr pubkeys (single-identitynostr.pubkeyand multi-identitynostr.names/nostr.relays) encoded to NIP-19 npub and linked to njump.me; implied<localPart>@<label>.bitNIP-05 identifiers rendered alongside.auxpow.tx.vin[0].coinbase), surfacing the actual NMC mining pool ("AntPool", "F2Pool", "ViaBTC", etc.) instead of "Unknown" the way most upstream-only explorers do.Endpoints
The Tor endpoint shares the same hidden-service identity as the
relay.testls.bitNostr relay (port 8080 multiplexed under one HiddenServiceDir), so an Amethyst client that already has the relay configured can reach the explorer through the same circuit.Source
Verifier
Anyone can verify the explorer is consensus-safe by inspecting the source: it queries
getblock,getrawtransaction,name_show,name_history,name_scan, andname_pendingdirectly against a local Namecoin Core node \u2014 no third-party indexers in the trust path.
