Problem

Rendered markdown preview is a one-way door on mobile: every markdown file
opens in preview mode by default, and the source view is only reachable while
you stay on that file. Coming back re-opens preview, so there is no persistent
way to tell the file view "I want to read the markdown source".

Change

  • Add a source/preview toggle button to the file-header toolbar (Android + iOS)
    that shows up only for markdown files (isMarkdownPreviewFile).
  • Opening a markdown file now defaults to the last mode you chose on device:
    a new markdownPreviewEnabled mobile preference persists the choice
    (device-local mirror of the web renderMarkdown setting — a global opt-out
    from preview). Per-file overrides still take precedence, and the server
    route /file?line-N still opens at the source line.
  • The toggle is a two-way door: it always falls back to "show rendered
    markdown" when the file is already in preview, and vice versa.

Verified on a physical device (Tecno LI9, Android 15): toggling switches source
↔ rendered preview per markdown file, and the default sticks across app
restarts.

Built with opencode/big-pickle.

Approvability

Verdict: Not approved

Macroscope's review found this PR not approvable — This PR adds a new mobile markdown source/preview toggle and persists the selection, making future markdown-file opening behavior preference-driven and affecting the production rendering path. The feature spans shared UI and preference infrastructure without focused tests for the new behavior, so its runtime and default-selection impact merits human review.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The mobile file screen now supports persisted Markdown rendered and source modes. Android and native toolbars expose mode toggles. Targeted lines force source mode and hide the toggles. Android header buttons support filled styling.

Changes

Markdown preview mode

Layer / File(s) Summary
Persist the Markdown preview preference
apps/mobile/src/persistence/mobile-preferences.ts
The preferences contract and sanitizer preserve the optional markdownPreviewEnabled setting.
Load and update preview mode
apps/mobile/src/features/files/ThreadFilesRouteScreen.tsx
The file screen loads the preference, forces source mode for targeted lines, selects rendered Markdown otherwise when enabled, and persists mode changes.
Expose preview mode controls
apps/mobile/src/components/AndroidScreenHeader.tsx, apps/mobile/src/features/files/ThreadFilesRouteScreen.tsx
Android and native toolbars provide Markdown mode toggles with mode-specific labels, icons, and tinting. The controls are hidden for targeted lines. Android header buttons support filled styling.
