 # Changelog
 
+## 0.12.0-beta.2 - 2026-10-17
+
+Background workspaces, a new Markdown renderer with selection across paragraphs on phones, a reworked phone layout, and close to 100 fixes.

-  not re-split history. History was once left whole to keep cross-block Markdown context; that gave
-  one message two shapes depending on how it arrived, and message-addressed features only worked on
-  one of them.
-- **A row id is never a message id.** Block rows are `${messageId}:block:${n}` with
-  `blockGroupId = messageId`, including single-block messages, so nothing can come to rely on the two
-  being equal. `getStreamItemMessageId` in `presentation.ts` is the only way to go from a row to its
-  message, and web rows carry it as `data-message-id` alongside `data-history-row-id`. Anything
-  addressing a message — chat find, scroll-to-message, history reveal, the find expansion that lifts

+## Native parsing cost
+
+The native library reparses and measures its entire `markdown` prop on each update. During streaming, the renderer splits source at an mdast block boundary and memoizes the head, so per-frame updates parse only the tail. Boundary discovery runs when a source line completes, rather than on every reveal frame. The unfinished line and final parsed block stay in the tail, preserving list continuation, setext headings, tables and open fences. Reference-dependent source and HTML retain a larger tail because later source can change their meaning. A single long block therefore still carries its full parsing cost.
+
+Completion restores one native text view per Mermaid-delimited segment, so selection crosses prose paragraphs again. The head retains its trailing block margin while split. JS reveal remains the pacing source; native opacity animation stays disabled.

+# Markdown rendering
+
+Use `MarkdownRenderer` for chat replies, file previews, plans, pull requests and changelog content. It uses `react-native-enriched-markdown` on iOS, Android and web. Keep source adaptation and renderer configuration in `components/markdown`; consumers supply Markdown and, when needed, its file location.
+
+Native selection belongs to the library's text view. Keep an assistant message in one row so selection can cross paragraphs, headings and lists. Code blocks and tables use the library's native views and their selection behavior. Web uses browser selection over semantic HTML. Once its WASM parser is initialized, the library parses synchronously for the first commit of each mounted row; an empty interim row would corrupt virtualized measurements and move the reader. Chat owns paced reveal, the web render cap, message identity and list measurement. Native renders completed messages together. While streaming, it keeps closed blocks in one head view and updates a separate tail, then reunites the text on completion. See [native parsing cost](agent-stream-performance.md#native-parsing-cost) for the boundary and pacing constraints.
+
+## Links and images
+
+Workspace file links use the shared file-link resolver. The workspace supplies its client, root and open-file action once; chat can supply the agent's more specific context. URLs use the same link press path. Recognized inline-code paths stay tappable. The library callback carries the tapped occurrence’s syntax context. Preserve it when opening files: explicit Markdown links decode URL escapes, while recognized inline-code paths preserve literal percent characters and use suffix lookup. Identical URL strings in different occurrences must stay distinct. Explicit absolute workspace links receive a relative hover title; existing authored titles remain intact.
+
+Resolve workspace image paths over the existing session RPC, then give the library a cached native file URL or web blob URL. HTTP(S) images pass through unchanged. This preserves relay, SSH and local socket connections, which do not expose a daemon HTTP endpoint. Each mounted renderer owns its image acquisition identity, so a later reply reads a rewritten path again while the earlier mounted reply retains its snapshot. Image taps open the attachment lightbox. File previews resolve relative images against the Markdown file's directory. An image alone on its line becomes its own paragraph before the library sees it, so it renders as a block on every platform; the library only treats sole-child paragraph images as blocks, and with hard soft breaks every newline is a break node, which left own-line images inline on iOS and web. Images that share a line with text stay inline.
+
+## Engine constraints
+
+The pinned nightly has the same React Native package and core source trees as upstream commit `73ac5085eb1fdc743973b3473d4dba65abad5261`. Compatibility was checked with React Native 0.81.5. Native dependencies must be rebuilt when changing the highlighting configuration; JavaScript refresh cannot enable compiled grammars.
+
+Math and video are disabled. Task lists and admonitions are enabled; task checkboxes are read-only. Source adaptation spaces adjacent empty GFM table delimiters before escaping prose spoiler delimiters and decodes entity text before the engine can discard it. Code spans and fences keep their literal source. Comment HTML is normalized to Markdown before parsing; details show their summary and body expanded.
+
+Mermaid fences use the existing isolated diagram runtime and fullscreen viewer. Web dispatches them through the library’s code-block override. Native has no block-renderer hook, so the renderer extracts only Mermaid fences and places the existing WebView host between library-rendered segments. This is the only block exception; see [native selection limitations](native-text-selection.md) for diagram grouping and leading inline images. Streaming keeps the last valid diagram visible while the next revision renders.
+
+Native code blocks use the library's copy control and compiled grammars. Web code blocks use `HighlightedCodeBlock` through the library's `renderers.codeBlock` override. The patch also preserves web list numbering and link titles, marks pending parses with `aria-busy` so Find waits for rendered text, and carries link syntax through native and web tap events. Web inline code inside a link inherits only the link colour; its code font, size and background stay intact. Keep link variants colour-only: native pills replace text runs and prevent paths from wrapping; Android pills also use the surrounding block’s font size. The package patch is tracked by [upstream PR #997](https://github.com/software-mansion/enriched-markdown/pull/997); remove the patch when the pinned release includes it.
+
+The package patch also keeps overflowing native horizontal blocks in control of their drags: Android claims parent interception at touch-down and releases it for vertical drags so the chat list can scroll; iOS keeps its scroll recognizer active for outward drags at the leading edge. This prevents compact sidebar pans from taking block scrolling without changing sidebar swipes on prose or non-overflowing blocks. Native changes require a client rebuild.
+
+Android measurements use a size-only, 512-entry LRU across view unmounts, matching the library’s existing iOS cache. Scrolling back through history can reuse layout sizes without parsing those rows again. Content, layout props and width identify each entry; font-scale changes and native layout invalidation discard affected sizes. The cache retains no views or spans.
+
+The library determines how incomplete Markdown appears during streaming. Completed text uses the same component and engine as history. Find and scroll-to-message address source message ids; selection-copy understands semantic HTML and the web code component's copy metadata.
+
+## Verification
+
+Follow [QA](qa.md) and [mobile testing](mobile-testing.md). Exercise chat, file preview, plan and PR content on all three platforms. Include cross-paragraph selection, progressive streaming, a file-link tap, code copy/highlighting, a table and a workspace image. On iPad, repeat preview selection after opening and closing Explorer and after rotation. Check web find, selection-copy and source-message navigation after DOM changes.

 ### Android audio focus interruptions

+Use native instrumentation for audio interruptions. JS-only tests cannot prove Android focus,

+- Returning from music controls resumes dictation without pausing music again. Cancelling a

+## Android inverted chat

+misses that decomposition.
+
+## Diagrams in lists and quotes
+
+Selection stops at a Mermaid diagram. Native extracts Mermaid fences into separate views because the library exposes no native block renderer override. A diagram inside a list or quote therefore appears outside that container, and its following prose starts a separate Markdown fragment.
+
+Reopening a list marker or quote prefix on the following fragment cannot place the diagram inside the original container or continue its quote rule. Preserving the group requires a native block renderer hook or a host that owns the whole group. Keep native diagrams at the top level until that exists; nested grouping remains a known limitation.
+
+## Leading inline images
+
+Native image decoders do not support SVG badges, so the renderer shows their alt text. Pending images share the web placeholder: a reserved image box with a small centred image glyph; confirmed acquisition or decoding failures show alt text.
+
+The native library classifies an image from the text preceding it. A raster image at the start of a paragraph uses block sizing even when text follows; the inline size setting only affects images the library recognizes as inline. Correcting that classification requires a native library change and new app builds. JavaScript-only updates retain that classification until native app builds include a library fix.
