Replace the machine-local baseline path.
The command at Line 76 references /private/tmp/markdown-compat-baseline.Ql4J5n. That path exists only on the audit machine and can be removed at any time. Users cannot reproduce this comparison from a normal checkout. Store the baseline as a committed revision or a durable artifact, then reference that identifier here.

Preserve the expected public export namespace.
Both checks derive the tested namespace only from the current package.json. A removed export therefore disappears from validation.

Restrict the inline paragraph path to the first child in every renderer.
When loose is falsy, renderInlines joins every paragraph without a separator. A hand-built tight item with [paragraph, paragraph] therefore renders as firstsecond. The same condition exists in the React and Octane renderers, so apply the fix in all three implementations.
🐛 Proposed fix for later paragraph children
- if (child.type === 'paragraph' && (!loose || index === 0)) {
+ if (child.type === 'paragraph' && index === 0) {
result += renderInlines(child.children, options)
if (loose) result = `<p>${result}</p>`
} else result += (index ? '\n' : '') + renderBlock(child, options)Apply the same condition change in src/react.ts and src/octane.ts.

CommonMark 0.31.2 specification emphasis left-flanking delimiter run whitespace a * b * c
💡 Result:
In the CommonMark 0.31.2 specification, the parsing of emphasis relies on the identification of delimiter runs and their classification as either left-flanking or right-flanking [1][2]. A delimiter run is a sequence of one or more asterisks (*) or underscores (_) that is not preceded or followed by the same character [2][3]. A left-flanking delimiter run is defined as a delimiter run that satisfies two conditions [2][4]: 1. It is not followed by Unicode whitespace [2][4]. 2. It either is not followed by a closable Unicode punctuation character, or is followed by a closable Unicode punctuation character and is preceded by Unicode whitespace or a closable Unicode punctuation character [2]. For these definitions, the beginning and the end of the line are treated as Unicode whitespace [2][4]. Regarding your example a * b * c: - The first asterisk * after a is preceded by a space (Unicode whitespace) and followed by a space. Because it is followed by whitespace, it fails the first condition of a left-flanking delimiter run [2][4]. Consequently, it cannot open emphasis. - The second asterisk * after b is also surrounded by spaces, so it also fails to be a left-flanking delimiter run and cannot close or open emphasis in this context [2][4]. - As a result, in the string a * b * c, the asterisks are treated as literal characters rather than emphasis delimiters [1][5]. This logic prevents spaces from "trapping" emphasis markers when they are used to surround content incorrectly [6]. The distinction between left-flanking and right-flanking runs is critical to the CommonMark emphasis algorithm, ensuring that emphasis only occurs when delimiters are placed in positions that suggest a true opening or closing structural intent [7][6].

Restore flanking validation for * runs. At src/inline.ts:142, only _ receives flanking validation. A * followed by whitespace can reach findDelimiter and pair with a later *, so a * b * c can be parsed as emphasis. Apply delimiter-run validation to * openers and closers, and add a conformance case that preserves these asterisks as literal text.

Use one collision registry for heading and footnote IDs. extractDefinitions creates a separate footnoteIds slugger, so it only prevents collisions between footnote labels. For input containing # user-content-fn-a-b and [^a b], the heading and footnote both render with id="user-content-fn-a-b" in every renderer. The footnote reference can then target the heading instead of the footnote. Reserve rendered footnote and reference IDs in the same registry as heading IDs.

Checked the late review findings against the pre-release baseline e56d191.
The release was verified with 203 tests, all protected CommonMark examples, bundle budgets, framework SSR tests, and the full external corpus gate. These follow-up observations do not change the stated syntax-profile limits. |
Changes
Improve list tightness, code spans and fences, links, references, footnotes, and docs extensions while reducing parsing work and allocations. Preserve existing public APIs and runtime dependencies.
Add Changesets 3 and the same split version/publish workflow used by Highlight. Release PRs sync bundled skill versions and explicitly dispatch CI. Publishing uses npm trusted publishing, with no stored npm token.
Evidence
Validation
pnpm run verify, frozen-lockfile install, Changesets status, workflow YAML validation, and an isolated versioning smoke test pass. The smoke test produces 0.0.14, consumes the changeset, and syncs skill metadata.Release
One patch changeset for @tanstack/markdown, expected version 0.0.14. Merge this after CI, then review and merge the generated version PR after its checks pass. npm must authorize TanStack/markdown, release.yml, with no environment before the publishing stage.
The open shared-package-manager-commands PR is separate and is not included.
