No code change this round; the head is unchanged at 85d68e7. The brief listed nothing to change, so I watched pull request #36304 until its checks and bot reviews finished. All 35 checks passed on 85d68e7 and Macroscope approved at that commit with no line findings. CodeRabbit posted one line comment, rated Minor, on apps/mobile/src/lib/markdownDocument.ts:291: a reference definition with an angle-bracket destination ('[d]: https://example.com') that sits inside a compact HTML block (directly after with no blank line) would lose its destination when markdownWithHtml flattens the block, so the definition is not collected and the reference in the fold stays unresolved. It is below the high threshold this step fixes, so I left it and did not run the input to confirm it. If it holds, it is a remaining unresolved-reference case in the existing HTML flattening, not a change to a link that works on main. The change itself is as before: each separately rendered fragment of a mobile chat reply (fold body, text around an artifact card) carries the reply's reference definitions with its own definitions first, so the native parser keeps a fold-local definition by its own label matching.

Supersedes #28093. The change is @juliusmarminge's; their commits are kept.

Reproduction on main

In a thread, ask the agent to emit this literal Markdown as its reply, without an enclosing code fence: 'See [docs][d].\n\n

\nMore\n\nSee [docs][d].\n\n
\n\n[d]: https://example.com'. Open the reply in the mobile app and expand More. On main, the references before and inside the fold lack their definition and remain unresolved; this change supplies the definition to both fragments. These steps are derived from the source and PR cases and were not executed.

Evidence

Replay the supplied Markdown in a fresh thread, open it in the iOS app, then expand More. Environment: iPhone 18 Pro simulator, light theme, identical synthetic reply on both commits.

Proven: base leaves both references unresolved; head renders both as native links. More starts collapsed on both.

Expanded Before: both references unresolved After: both references resolve
Interaction Before recording After recording

Scenario source

Not shown:

  • Fragment-local definition precedence and artifact-card boundaries were not exercised by the supplied reproduction.
  • Android was not exercised; evidence is from the native iOS app.

Tests

None run locally this round, since nothing changed. On the pull request: all 35 checks passed on 85d68e7, including the 8 required ones; Macroscope approvability verdict: approved.

Not in this change

  • References inside pull request descriptions, review comments and user messages: those render as one document and were never split.
  • A fold nested in a list item or blockquote stays flattened, as on main.
  • MD4C does not match a reference written with padding inside the brackets ('[ x ]') even within one document, while remark does; that is existing parser behaviour and unrelated to fragment splitting.
  • The original pull request's fold rendering itself (tappable folds, scroll maintenance): main already has it through fad507c.
  • CodeRabbit's Minor finding: an angle-bracket destination in a definition inside a compact HTML block may be stripped by the existing HTML flattening (markdownHtmlContent / htmlTagMarkdown), leaving that reference unresolved; not verified and not changed.

…in chat replies

A reply split into folds and artifact cards renders each fragment as its own
Markdown document, so a reference such as [docs][d] stayed literal text when
its definition sat in another fragment.

Each fragment now carries the reply's reference definitions, copied as
written. The fragment's own definitions go first: the first definition of a
label wins, so the native parser keeps a fold-local definition ahead of the
reply's by its own label matching, and no label equivalence is reimplemented
in JS. A reply that renders as one document is left alone.

Approvability

Verdict: Approved at 85d68e7

Macroscope's review found this PR approvable — Reference links now resolve across folded sections and artifact-separated text in mobile chat replies while preserving local definition precedence. The change is confined to rendering and leaves storage, permissions, and product defaults unchanged.

Walkthrough

The change extracts Markdown reference definitions from reply content and makes them available to rendered Markdown segments, including details-fold bodies. Tests cover reference destinations across fold boundaries and definition formats.

Changes: Folded Markdown references

Layer / File(s) Summary
Reference definition helpers
apps/mobile/src/lib/markdownDocument.ts
Adds helpers to extract normalized reference definitions and attach them to fragments. Fragment-local definitions take precedence over reply definitions.
Thread feed rendering and validation

AssistantMarkdownBlocks resolves definitions and passes them to details-fold bodies and Markdown segments. Tests cover definition locations, label formats, precedence, and fragments without references.

Change: Bug fix

Suggested reviewers: umais-adeed

Merge Risk: Low · up to 85d68

Reference links whose destination is written in angle brackets and defined directly after a folded section can show as unresolved text. The impact is limited to that edge case and the text stays readable, so it is mergeable with a small follow-up.

Explanation

The title names the main change: reference links and images in mobile chat replies now resolve across details folds and artifact cards. It follows the conventional commit format and is specific. It does not cover the single-document shortcut, but that is a detail.

Full details: Description check

Explanation

The description is thorough and covers the problem being fixed (reference links and images in mobile chat replies split across details folds and artifact cards not resolving), the change (fragments receive reply reference definitions, fragment-local definitions first), a reproduction on main, before/after evidence, and test status. Its scope is limited to the bug. It only partially follows the template: the Scope section does not link the issue that shows the bug, and it points to a superseded PR (#28093) rather than an issue. The Problem and Change sections are present but framed around the PR history rather than as clean standalone sections. The Verification section is strong, and it states what was not checked. The description also has no conventional commit title in the body. Because the required content is present and the gaps are non-critical, the check passes.

Preserve angle-bracket destinations during extraction.

For this reply, the HTML block includes the definition because no blank line terminates the block. (spec.commonmark.org)

<details><summary>A</summary>
See [d].
</details>
[d]: <https://example.com>

markdownWithHtml sends the block through markdownHtmlContent. Its HTML_TAG regex matches <https://example.com>, and htmlTagMarkdown removes that destination. The extraction therefore returns no definition. The fold receives an empty definition list and still displays unresolved [d].

Preserve Markdown destinations when flattening HTML for definition extraction.
