fix(mobile): bot comment icons and SVG badges no longer leave blank gaps - #30809
CodeRabbit's PR comments render on mobile with large empty gaps: at the top of the comment, before every section heading, and inside the pre-merge check tables. Every <summary> heading starts with a 16x16 icon (<img width="16" height="16" ... .svg>) and every status cell starts with an SVG badge.
The HTML-to-Markdown step in markdownDocument.ts drops the width and height, so each one becomes  at the start of a line or cell. react-native-enriched-markdown only draws an image inline when text comes before it on the line, so these become full-width blocks with a default height of 200. Its iOS image loader also cannot decode SVG, so the box stays empty.
Expected: icons do not take space and badges stay readable.
Change
In apps/mobile/src/lib/markdownDocument.ts:
An HTML <img> with a width or height of 24 or less is replaced by its alt text, or removed when the alt text is empty. The space after a removed icon goes with it so **Title** stays bold.
After the HTML step, an SVG image that is not a standalone paragraph (table cells, list items, links, mid-sentence) becomes its alt text. A standalone SVG paragraph still goes to the React image renderer, which draws SVG. Text with no .svg skips the extra parse.
Two focused tests are added to markdownHtml.test.ts.
Scope and approval
There is no prior issue or discussion. I think this qualifies as a very small, focused fix for an obvious bug: one preprocessing function (about 65 lines plus tests), no settings, contracts, or other clients. It only changes images the native renderer already cannot draw. It shows a badge's alt text where an empty box was.
I searched this repo's PRs and issues for svg, coderabbit, details summary, blank space, inline image, badge image, and html img and found nothing for this. The closest is #18347, which keeps bot badges out of the PR attachments list and does not touch this rendering path.
Verification
Reproduced on an iPhone 16 with the CodeRabbit comment on #27241. Before, from that recording:
After, on a physical iPhone 12 (Release build from this checkout), PR #27241, Activity with bot comments shown, CodeRabbit comment expanded and scrolled:
vp test run src/lib/markdownHtml.test.ts src/lib/markdownInlineFileLinks.test.ts src/features/pull-requests/pullRequestDescription.test.ts src/features/pull-requests/pullRequestDescriptionContent.test.ts: 59 passed on this branch. The two new tests fail on the unchanged source.
Android was not checked. The change is shared and runs on both platforms.
Not fixed here: the pre-merge table rows are still tall from the long Explanation column, CodeRabbit's alt text repeats its heading ("Passed Passed checks"), and <details> sections still render open.

CodeRabbit's PR comments start every heading with a 16x16 icon and every status
cell with an SVG badge. The HTML step dropped the icon size, and the native
renderer draws an image that starts a line as a 200pt block it cannot fill with
an SVG, so each one became a large empty box.
Icon-sized HTML images now keep only their text, and SVG images that are not a
standalone paragraph become their alt text.
Macroscope's review found this PR approvable — The change substitutes alt text for small icons and unsupported inline SVGs in mobile Markdown to avoid blank image gaps. Its impact is presentation-only; the reported whitespace/emphasis defect remains subject to the separate correctness gate.

Walkthrough
Mobile Markdown conversion replaces small HTML images and selected SVG images with escaped alt text. It adjusts surrounding text when images are removed.
Changes: Mobile Markdown image handling
Layer / File(s)
Summary
HTML image conversion and text handling apps/mobile/src/lib/markdownDocument.ts, apps/mobile/src/lib/markdownHtml.test.ts
Small HTML images with a numeric or px width or height of at most 24 produce escaped alt text. Text handling adjusts spacing around removed images. Tests cover image sizes, inline formatting, and alt text that resembles Markdown block syntax.
SVG normalization for native parsing apps/mobile/src/lib/markdownDocument.ts, apps/mobile/src/lib/markdownHtml.test.ts
SVG images become escaped alt text unless they are sole images in eligible standalone paragraphs. Tests cover linked, table, list, and reference-style images, plus surrounding text and emphasis.
pingdotgg/t3code#24735: Adds paragraph breaks around inline images, which affects whether an SVG image qualifies as a standalone paragraph image.
pingdotgg/t3code#28211: Splits eligible images into standalone paragraphs, affecting which SVG images remain image syntax.
pingdotgg/t3code#30280: Changes image paragraph formation, affecting whether SVG images are sole paragraph children.

Some Markdown badges with leading spaces can break surrounding bold formatting on mobile. The impact is narrow and mergeable with follow-up, but the existing issue remains unresolved.

- Line 195: Update markdownHtmlContent so the pending dropSpace trim survives
processing the image node and is applied to the following sibling text edit;
keep the trim state available across sibling nodes instead of losing it when the
function returns.
- Line 475: Update the image normalization branch to handle imageReference nodes
as well as image nodes. Resolve each reference using the existing
definition-resolution approach in markdownWithFileEmbeds, then apply the same
SVG-to-alt-text normalization, including for images in tables and lists.
- Line 232: Update the plain-text escaping logic at the `text.replace` call to
escape block-level Markdown markers in alt text, including a leading `---`, so
they render as literal text rather than block syntax. Preserve the existing
escaping behavior for the characters already handled.

…ine HTML node
Inline HTML arrives one tag per node, so the space after a dropped icon was only
trimmed when the icon and its text shared one node. The trim now carries across
sibling nodes.
…es no longer render empty
Alt text that looks like block Markdown, such as `---` or `1. x`, no longer turns
into a rule or a list, and line breaks in it collapse to spaces. SVG images
written as `![alt][ref]` now resolve their definition and become alt text like
inline ones.

Review comments at @apps/mobile/src/lib/markdownDocument.ts:
- Line 320: Update the `dropSpace` check for `<img>` children so it trims
preceding whitespace only when the punctuation in `previous` is a Markdown
formatting delimiter, not escaped literal text. Preserve the space after escaped
punctuation, as in `foo\_<img...> bar`.
- Line 235: Update the alt-text normalization around .trim() so boundary spaces
are preserved when they separate alt text from neighboring text; ensure `a![ b
][badge]c` retains the spaces and produces `a b c` rather than `abc`.
- Line 511: Update the SVG-reference removal path guarded by `SVG_URL.test(url)`
to remove the adjacent space along with the image reference when needed, so
`**![][icon] Title**` becomes `**Title**` and remains bold. Preserve the
existing behavior for standalone images and non-SVG references.

Alt text keeps its boundary spaces (collapsed to one), an escaped delimiter no
longer counts as an opening one when a removed icon's following space is
trimmed, and removed SVG images get the same trim so `**![][icon] Title**` stays
bold.

- Line 518: Update the alt-text handling in the `markdownText` call so
exclamation marks are escaped before the text is inserted into Markdown.
Preserve the existing link structure when replacing the image, so alt text
beginning with `!` cannot turn the link into an image.
- Line 245: Update the delimiter check in the whitespace helper to distinguish
opening Markdown delimiters from closing ones using the surrounding Markdown
context. Preserve the following space when the delimiter closes formatting, so
the SVG pass does not join adjacent text.
- Line 233: Update the image alt-text replacement in the markdown processing
flow so boundary spaces are preserved without introducing literal whitespace
next to emphasis delimiters; encode those spaces as entities so text such as an
image followed by “Results” remains bold.

…ever turns a link into an image
The space after a removed image is only trimmed when the delimiter before it
opens emphasis, not when it closes a word, and `!` in replacement alt text is
escaped so a following link stays a link.
