Reproduces #16105: a user message containing ~/a and (~/b renders the span between them as strikethrough and hides both tildes. Guards that ~~double~~ still strikes and assistant rendering is unchanged. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
A user message like "~/a/x, then (~/a/guide.md)" rendered the span between the tildes as GFM single-tilde strikethrough and hid both tildes. User messages and their thread-find extraction now parse with remark-gfm's singleTilde disabled; ~~double~~ still strikes, and assistant rendering and stored message text are unchanged.

ApprovabilityVerdict: Approved at Macroscope's review found this PR approvable — This is a narrowly scoped Markdown parsing bug fix that preserves single tildes in user messages while retaining existing strikethrough behavior and assistant rendering. The associated tests cover rendering and search, and the fixture tooling is isolated to development workflows. You can add or adjust custom eligibility rules. Learn more. |

Reject the default database when ~/.t3 is a symlink.
If ~/.t3 points to another directory named .t3, home.resolve() differs from the unresolved Path.home() / '.t3'. The script then accepts the default database and replaces projection rows despite the isolation check. Resolve the default home path before comparing it with home.

Triaged bug via the automated issue flow: #16105. This addresses the reported mismatch between rich composition and sent web user messages. Regular and automation user rows share the fixed renderer. No stored text or provider protocol changes.
Native Electron is unverified. Mobile uses a separate native parser and remains affected; it needs a follow-up. Other user-authored markdown surfaces are outside this fix.
Verification
MessagesTimeline.browser.test.tsx: failed on main because the rendered user message lost its tildes; now 10/10 browser tests pass. Controls cover double-tilde user text and unchanged assistant parsing.markdownPipeline.test.tsandthreadFindText.test.ts: 12/12 pass. Search extraction preserves user tildes and still removes double-tilde formatting.searchThreadandsearchThreadStreamreturn zero matches before and one correct user-message match after for the raw home path, literal single-tilde text, hidden tail, automation body, and legacy-context prose. Hidden context output and structured-context labels remain excluded.Evidence
Real web dev apps at b5a226e49c (before) and 8ac56474a3 (after), Chrome 154 on Linux, DPR 2, scale 1, frozen UTC clock. CSS viewports 1440×1000 and 390×1000; light and dark themes. Narrow captures are web, not native mobile.

Interaction recordings contain narrated, media-timed chapters for expand/collapse, find navigation, hidden-tail reveal, automation, and context exclusions. Text captions occupy added black padding; app pixels are retained.
Supplemental after recordings: automation reveal, legacy/context exclusions. Actual read-RPC transcripts: before, after.
Visible changes: user single tildes and their former strike decorations change; restored characters change bubble width and narrow wrapping, shifting later rows by 23 CSS pixels. Translucent-composer blending and bottom-row cropping follow that reflow. Desktop header, assistant, and scroll-button pixels match exactly; narrow assistant content matches after its layout shift. No CSS changed. Full-frame diffs are unaligned and unmasked.
Independent reconstruction from schema only plus the committed fixture reproduced the complete after screenshot with zero changed pixels, without masking or alignment: metrics.
Unverified: native Electron; native mobile, whose separate renderer remains affected and needs a follow-up; a real UI-generated structured terminal-context chip. The empty-record fixture proves search exclusion only. Projection fixtures prove rendering/read RPC behavior, not provider orchestration or event replay.
Full audited evidence index, reproduction bundle, and checksums. Independent audit verified all 89 checksums and 39 public artifact hashes. Both final reviewers returned MERGE.
Models and harnesses: Claude Opus 5.5 through Claude Code implemented the fix and tests; GPT-6.1 Sol through Codex coordinated triage, fixtures, and proof. Both reviewed the diff.
Takeover
Original fix by @juliusmarminge. No code or test changes; final-diff runtime evidence and independent verification added below.
The original description is preserved. This update supersedes its historical mobile-unverified wording: plain mobile is verified by the maintainer's EAS iOS static fixture; no mobile fix is claimed here. No desktop-specific files changed, so Electron is outside this diff's required surface set.
Evidence
Pinned before b5a226e49c, after 8ac56474a3. Fixture matrix, reused capture index, new runtime index, independent proof audit. The table below applies the corrected file-path surface scope to the planning matrix.
solofind, highlight, next/previous, reopenCurrent-VM pinned-font reconstruction reference (dark1440): Arial interface/composer resolves Liberation Sans; code uses Liberation Mono; eight font assets hashed. Same fixture, frozen clock, DPR2, scale1 and layout on both commits. Recipe/font index. Historical fallback identity remains unknown; this additional pair is the reproducible reference, not an assertion of identical historical pixels.
Pinned-pair visible differences: single tildes restored, accidental user strikes removed, and resulting user-bubble width/content movement; header, assistant, code, composer and scroll control match exactly. Runtime supplements: Chrome 154/Linux, CSS1280×800, DPR2, scale1, light/system, no clock freeze. Recordings retain application pixels and add timestamped captions below. Canonical static pairs retain their original frozen-clock environment. Supplemental full-frame differences include timestamps, provider output, sidebar/layout and a corrected baseline context attempt; the index lists them explicitly. Diff0 and DiffT >16 are supplied, with a separately labeled prompt crop. No claim that every supplemental pixel difference comes from the parser.
