AI-3832 — no GitHub issue

What & why

Hovering a link shows its destination, not its label. mailto is a link and opens the mail client. javascript, data, file, and kcap stay plain text.

Where to look

The tooltip is the link's URI. The opener accepts http, https, and mailto.

Verification

MailtoLinkTests passed: the scheme policy, the hover tooltip, and a mailto link rendering as a link.

• Hover a labelled link. The tooltip is the URL, not the label.
• Click a mailto link. The mail client opens.
• javascript:, data:, file:, and kcap:// stay plain text and do not open.

Summary by CodeRabbit

• New Features

  • Mailto links can now be opened directly from supported content.
  • Hovering over links or linked images displays their destination in a tooltip.
  • Markdown content renders mailto links as interactive links.

• Bug Fixes

  • Unsupported or potentially unsafe link schemes remain blocked from opening.
  • Link tooltips are cleared when content changes or no link is under the pointer.

• Tests

  • Added coverage for mailto links, hover tooltips, content updates, and rejected schemes.

📝 Walkthrough

The link policy now permits absolute mailto URLs. Body-link validation and opening support the same scheme. The Markdown viewer displays hovered link or linked-image destinations as tooltips and clears stale tooltips during rendering. Tests cover these behaviors.

Changes: Markdown link handling

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Permit mailto links src/Capacitor.App/Services/LinkPolicy.cs, src/Capacitor.Cli.Core/PullRequests/PullRequestWire.cs, test/Capacitor.App.Tests.Unit/MailtoLinkTests.cs, test/Capacitor.App.Tests.Unit/PullRequestContextViewModelTests.cs	Absolute mailto URLs are accepted by link and body-link validation. HTTP(S) links retain their no-user-info rule. Tests cover accepted and rejected schemes, body-link opening, and mailto rendering.
Show hovered link destinations src/Capacitor.App/Views/MarkdownView.cs, test/Capacitor.App.Tests.Unit/MailtoLinkTests.cs	MarkdownView resolves hyperlinks and linked images under the pointer, updates the tooltip only when needed, and clears it when no target exists or rendering starts. UI tests cover these cases.

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to 2e87f

Hover tooltips may show an incorrect destination or none in some layouts. The change is mergeable with owner awareness of this outstanding, localized issue.

Security architecture risk: 🔵 Low · up to 2e87f

Mail links remain behind user activation and allowed-scheme checks. Hover previews may identify the wrong link in layouts with coordinate offsets, weakening destination verification; the runtime impact has not been established.

Retained concerns

• Low · security · inferred: The new destination preview does not honor the inspected dependency's coordinate-space contract. With a nonzero viewer-to-selection-layer offset, hover lookup can miss the pointed link or resolve another link, potentially displaying a destination different from the one activated. The runtime offset is unmeasured, and allowed-scheme enforcement remains independent.

Security review details

Security Blast Radius

• observed — The shared policy expansion reaches chat link commands, pull-request body links, and contextual work-item links. Its sensitive outcome is requesting URL handling on the user's machine, now including the configured mail handler; it is not confined to the new tooltip path.

Security Findings and Attack Paths

• inferred — An author controlling multiple allowed Markdown destinations could potentially benefit from a hover lookup that resolves a different inline under coordinate offsets. This is a conditional destination-verification failure, not a demonstrated exploit: nonzero runtime offsets were not established, and activation uses the clicked link's URL rather than tooltip text.

Trust Boundaries and Controls

• observed — LinkPolicy revalidates destinations immediately before invoking the opener and permits only absolute HTTP, HTTPS, and mailto URIs. The inspected Markdown activation path remains command-driven. Tooltip state neither selects nor authorizes the opened destination.

Resilience and Maintainability Implications

• observed — The existing policy wrapper catches opener exceptions and logs failure. It does not retry with a less restrictive opening mechanism, preserving the scheme boundary when an OS handler is missing or fails.

Hardening Proposals

• proposed — Make destination preview use the dependency's required coordinate space and verify agreement with activation under nonzero transforms. Treat every content-rebuild path, including flavor changes, as an explicit invalidation point for preview state.

High-Level Assessment

The following are alternative approaches to this PR:

1. Expose supported hover hit testing in MarkView

• ➕ Avoids depending on a private method whose signature could change.
• ➖ Requires an upstream change or a maintained fork for this small feature.

Recommendation: The existing link policy is the right place to extend scheme access. Reusing MarkView’s hit testing keeps the tooltip change small, though the private-method dependency should be revisited if MarkView offers a public API.

1. Mail links in the pull request reader do nothing ✓ Resolved

Description

LinkPolicy.IsOpenable now renders mailto: destinations as clickable links, but
OpenBodyLinkCommand passes them through PullRequestWire.BodyLink, which rejects every non-web
scheme. In pull request descriptions and comments, clicking one of these links therefore reaches
LinkPolicy.Open with a null URL and silently stops.

Code

src/Capacitor.App/Services/LinkPolicy.cs[10]

+        uri.Scheme == Uri.UriSchemeHttp || uri.Scheme == Uri.UriSchemeHttps || uri.Scheme == Uri.UriSchemeMailto;

Relevance

●●● Strong

Directly contradicts the PR’s stated mailto-opening intent; this is a clear end-to-end correctness
bug.

ⓘ Recommendations generated based on similar findings in past PRs

Evidence

The GitHub-flavor renderer creates a hyperlink when IsOpenable succeeds, and both reader Markdown
views bind clicks to OpenBodyLinkCommand. That command applies BodyLink, whose scheme check
permits only http and https; LinkPolicy.Open returns without opening a null URL.

2. Clickable image links hide destinations ✓ Resolved

Description

OnPointerMoved obtains tooltip text only from a MarkdownHyperlink, while the GitHub image-row
renderer puts image-only links in MarkdownImage panels with their destinations in Target.
Hovering a clickable image-only paragraph such as [![badge](image-url)](destination-url) therefore
cannot show its destination through the new tooltip path.

Code

src/Capacitor.App/Views/MarkdownView.cs[R71-72]

+        var link = FindHyperlinkAt(_viewer, e.GetPosition(_viewer));
+        var tip = link?.NavigateUri?.ToString();

Relevance

●●● Strong

Recent accepted precedent addresses image-only markdown links being omitted from link handling.

PR-#1681

ⓘ Recommendations generated based on similar findings in past PRs

Evidence

For a paragraph containing only a linked image, OnlyImages retains the anchor and the image-row
renderer writes MarkdownImage controls rather than a MarkdownHyperlink. MarkdownImage stores
the clickable destination in Target and executes it on release, but the new handler reads only a
hyperlink's NavigateUri.
