Two production-reported regressions in the same chat surface, fixed
in one focused PR.
Issue 1 — IME composition + Enter sends half-typed message
----------------------------------------------------------
ChatTab's textarea onKeyDown was:
if (e.key === "Enter" && !e.shiftKey) {
e.preventDefault();
sendMessage();
}
For agents typing CJK / Japanese / Korean via the system IME, Enter
commits the candidate selection — not a newline, not a send. With
the old check, every IME-commit Enter accidentally sent the
half-typed message ("你好" + half-typed-pinyin + Enter to commit
the next candidate → message goes out before the user finishes).
Fix: guard on `event.nativeEvent.isComposing` AND `e.keyCode !== 229`.
The latter covers older Safari / WebKit-based mobile browsers that
delay setting isComposing on the composition-end Enter.
Issue 2 — markdown links land at about:blank
---------------------------------------------
ReactMarkdown's default `<a>` rendering passes the agent-supplied
href directly to the DOM with no target / scheme handling:
- http(s) → navigates the canvas tab away (canvas state lost)
- workspace://path / file:///workspace/... / /workspace/... →
browser hits unhandled-protocol click → about:blank, no
download (the reported bug)
Fix: ReactMarkdown `components.a` override:
- In-container paths (workspace:, file:///{workspace,configs,home,
plugins}, bare /{workspace,configs,...}) → preventDefault, route
through downloadChatFile (same auth path the AttachmentChip
uses). Filename is derived from the path's last segment.
- External (http/https/mailto/unknown scheme) → target="_blank"
rel="noopener noreferrer" so canvas state survives.
Tests
-----
ChatTab.imeAndLinks.test.tsx (4 tests):
- Enter with isComposing=true → does NOT send, input preserved
- Enter with keyCode=229 (older-Safari IME) → does NOT send
- Enter with no IME signal → DOES send (happy path intact)
- Shift+Enter → does NOT send (newline path intact)
The link-component override is exercised through the full ChatTab
render — the IME tests are jsdom-only and don't load chat history
with markdown messages, so the link test would need a more elaborate
fixture. Manual verification on staging post-deploy is the practical
gate; if the link test grows critical the AttachmentViews-style chip
test can extend.
Verified:
- tsc --noEmit clean
- 4/4 IME tests pass
