Conversation
CommonMark ends an unquoted link destination at the first space, so an agent writing  delivers the whole line as literal text on every surface, and the workspace-image relay and preview machinery built for that destination goes unused. Repair such destinations to the angle-quoted form at the text level, which both clients already unwrap when classifying, before parsing. Fenced code, inline code, and destinations that parse on their own are left as written; link syntax is left for a separate pass. The same repair serves web, desktop (which serves the web client), and mobile.

Review found the repair reaching text that is meant to be read literally, and leaving some paths it did repair subtly wrong. Code spans are scanned per block instead of per line, so a span that closes on a later line still shields what is inside it, and an opener that never closes is literal text rather than a span running to the end of the line. Indented code, raw HTML blocks and an escaped image marker are left alone, and a backtick fence whose info string carries a backtick opens no fence. The destination scan steps over escapes, so an escaped parenthesis belongs to the path, and alt text may carry escaped or nested brackets. The destination it writes doubles its backslashes: a backslash before punctuation is an escape inside a destination too, so the single form delivered D:\shots.cache\a b.png for a path through .cache. One helper writes that destination for both the repair and copy-as-markdown, which had been putting a destination no other reader parses on the clipboard. The web client memoises the repair on the text it is given.

Thanks — the bot findings were right about the direction of the risk: the repair was reaching text that is meant to be read literally. Corruption of literal Markdown (repair now skips it)
Wrong output where it did repair
One the review did not find. Backslash escapes are processed inside a destination, so the angle-quoted form still lost a separator before punctuation: One helper, On the approvability note — why this is shared text-level code rather than an isolated renderer fix. The two clients share no renderer: web is Scope is unchanged: images only, no link syntax, and a destination that already parses is left exactly as written. Verified locally: |

A second review round found three more contexts the walker read wrongly. An HTML block is any of CommonMark's seven forms, not only the four raw-text tags: a comment, a processing instruction, a declaration, CDATA and the block tag list all show what is inside them as written, and a complete tag alone on a line opens one too where a block can start. A paragraph that merely opens with an inline tag is still a paragraph, so an image in it is still repaired. An indented code block ends at the first unindented line, so the paragraph after it is ordinary text; the walker was carrying the code state to the next blank line and skipping that paragraph. A CRLF document kept its carriage return, which a closing fence pattern does not accept, so a fence opened and never closed and nothing after it was ever repaired. The line patterns now read the line without its terminator, and the line keeps it.
|
Round two,
Worth stating explicitly, since it decides how these findings read: the repair only ever skips or angle-quotes. Every miss leaves text exactly as the model wrote it, which is today's behaviour, so the failure mode of this walker being too cautious is the status quo and the failure mode of it being too eager is a corrupted message. Where the two conflict — the standalone-tag rule, an indent inside a list item — it is written to be cautious.

A standalone tag opens an HTML block only where a block can start, and the walker decided that by asking whether it had buffered any line yet — which a heading or a thematic break satisfies, though neither leaves a paragraph open. So a tag under a heading was read as inline HTML and an image beneath it was rewritten inside a raw HTML block, where the reader is meant to see it as written. Each of those lines now ends its own block, and an image inside a heading is still repaired.
|
Round three,
So an ATX heading, a thematic break and a setext underline now end the block they are in, and the two that must stay repairable — a paragraph and a list item above the tag — are tests alongside them, as is an image inside a heading, which the same change must not stop repairing.

Related: #12615 fixes the other half of this, and touches the same files — worth reading together, since neither covers the other's case.
Complementary rather than competing, then — but they will conflict in One gap neither closes: #12615 covers links and reference definitions as well as images; this one is images-only by design, so a link whose destination contains spaces still breaks. Easy to widen if you want it. The workflows here are still held for approval (CI, Web Preview, Mobile EAS Preview, Mobile Fingerprint Check), so nothing has run on this branch — the local equivalents are in the description. |
A Markdown image whose absolute path contains a space (C:/Users/Kevin Lingofelter/...) fails CommonMark parsing and renders as text.

Problem
When an agent writes an image whose path contains a space unquoted, the whole line renders as literal text:
CommonMark ends an unquoted link destination at the first space, so this never parses as an image — the renderer shows the raw markdown line instead (observed on mobile and web; desktop serves the web client, so it inherits the behaviour).
The machinery for the destination itself already works — once the syntax parses, the workspace-path classification relays the image through a signed asset URL on mobile and resolves it on web. Only the parser never sees it.
Fix
repairMarkdownImageDestinations(new export in@t3tools/client-runtime/markdown-links) rewrites such destinations to the angle-quoted form — the CommonMark syntax that holds spaces — before parsing:The backslashes are doubled because a backslash before punctuation is an escape inside a destination too: written once,
<D:\shots\.cache\a b.png>parses back asD:\shots.cache\a b.pngand resolves to nothing. Both clients already unwrap<...>when classifying, so the rewrite is invisible downstream. It runs at the two chat entry points: webChatMarkdown(which desktop reuses) and mobileThreadFeed(message rows and assistant content). The clients share no renderer — web parses withreact-markdown, mobile withreact-native-nitro-markdown— so the text before parsing is the only seam both can use.Everywhere Markdown is shown literally is left exactly as written: fenced code (including a fence whose info string is not a valid one), indented code, code spans (scanned per block, since a span can close on a later line), raw HTML blocks, and an escaped
\![. So are destinations that already parse — relative, angle-quoted, quoted-title — and prose that is not a path.Scope is images only; link syntax is deliberately left for a separate pass.
Tests
packages/client-runtime/src/markdownLinks.test.ts: Windows, UNC and POSIX paths with spaces, a path segment starting with punctuation, an escaped parenthesis inside the destination, bracketed and escaped-bracket alt text, several images on one line with balanced parens, and each context that must stay untouched — parseable destinations, prose, fenced code, an unclosed fence, a fence-looking line that opens no fence, a code span closing on a later line, an unmatched backtick, indented code, a raw HTML block, an escaped image markerapps/web/src/components/ChatMarkdown.workspace-images.test.tsx: the unquoted spaced path reaches the signed asset URL instead of "Image unavailable", a path through a.cachesegment arrives with its separators intact, and copy-as-markdown puts a destination on the clipboard that another Markdown reader parsesRequired CI is held for a maintainer's approval on this PR, so it has not run.
