fix(webview): render expanded task header text as markdown with consistent scrollbar - #1257
Conversation
The collapsed task title still shows raw text, but the expanded view rendered the prompt verbatim via <Mention>, so markdown syntax (bold, code, lists) appeared as literal characters. Render it through MarkdownBlock like other chat messages and drop the now-redundant whitespace-pre-wrap class.
The expanded prompt box used a default always-visible Chromium scrollbar while the message list uses the hover-reveal .scrollable style, so two differently-styled scrollbars stacked in the same column. Add the shared .scrollable class so both behave consistently.

…wn links MarkdownBlock renders prompt links as <a> elements, which the header click handler did not guard against (only buttons/role=button/img), so clicking a link inside the expanded prompt toggled isTaskExpanded and collapsed the panel. Ignore anchor targets in the toggle handler; add regression tests for link clicks, headings/lists rendering, and empty prompts.

ClineMessage.text is optional (z.string().optional()), so the empty-prompt case can omit the property instead of casting undefined through any.

The mention span handler in MarkdownBlock now stops propagation before posting openMention, so a mention click inside the expanded task header no longer bubbles to the TaskHeader toggle and collapses the panel. Adds a regression assertion that the expanded markdown stays rendered after clicking a mention. Addresses CodeRabbit review comment on PR Zoo-Code-Org#1257.

Addresses the updated CodeRabbit merge-risk notes on PR Zoo-Code-Org#1257: rehypeMentions now skips text inside code elements (mention patterns in code blocks rendered verbatim and no longer vanished from CodeBlock text extraction), and mention spans are keyboard operable via role=button, tabIndex and Enter/Space key handling. Adds regression tests for both behaviors.
Adds a standalone-mention regression test that exercises the no-leading-text and no-trailing-text branches of the rehypeMentions splitter, and drops the unreachable match[1] ?? mentionText.slice(1) fallback (the mention regex has one mandatory capture group, so match[1] is always the non-empty value and identical to match[0].slice(1)). Lifts PR patch coverage of the changed MarkdownBlock lines from ~87.5% to full.

Nice! This is a cool quality of life improvement - thank you for this. Had a question about how we should handle @ mentions?
Addresses edelauna's review on PR Zoo-Code-Org#1257: gate the rehypeMentions plugin behind a new MarkdownBlock `mentions` prop (off by default) so assistant messages, reasoning, tool output, and todo lists keep mention patterns as inert text; only the expanded TaskHeader prompt (user-authored) passes it. Also extend the skip guard from `code` to `pre`/`a` so a mention inside link text no longer becomes a nested role=button span (invalid per WHATWG) that blocks the anchor's openFile handler. Adds regression tests for both behaviors.
Fixes #1256
Summary
Two small fixes in the expanded task header (the collapsible "Task" panel):
Mentioncomponent, so prompts with markdown syntax displayed it verbatim while assistant messages render formatted markdown viaMarkdownBlock. Now rendered through the same pipeline; the collapsed one-line title keeps plain text (appropriate for an ellipsized summary)..scrollablehover-reveal style, so long prompts showed two differently-styled bars stacked in the same column.
