Address two Copilot review comments on PR #17175.
- `wrapForFrac` doc said "additive operators or whitespace" but the
implementation also matches `*` and `/`. The wider behaviour is the
one we want (nested products and fractions need parens to disambiguate
inline `/`), so the doc is updated to match instead of tightening the
regex.
- `fenceOpenAt` was flagged as "overly conservative" vs. `markdown.tsx`,
which falls back to paragraph rendering for unclosed `$$` openers.
Mirroring that fallback in the streaming chunker would prematurely
commit a paragraph rendering of the unclosed opener to the monotonic
stable prefix, where it would be frozen and become wrong the moment
the closer streams in. The asymmetry is deliberate; document why so
it isn't "fixed" again later.
Made-with: Cursor
StreamingMd returned <><Md/><Md/></> — a bare Fragment with two <Md>
children. Each <Md> returns a <Box flexDirection="column">, but its
parent in messageLine.tsx (line 169) is `<Box width={...}>` with no
flexDirection, which Ink defaults to 'row'. So during streaming the
two column boxes rendered side-by-side, producing the visible "tokens
jumble into two columns until it fixes itself" bug — the "fix" was
message.complete flipping isStreaming→false, which swaps the
StreamingMd subtree for a single DeferredMd/Md child (no siblings → row
direction is harmless).
Wrap the two <Md> siblings in a flexDirection="column" Box so they
stack. Localized fix so the non-streaming path (single-child, works
fine in a row parent) is untouched.

No test changes — findStableBoundary tests still pass (the layout
change is parent-structural, not in the boundary logic). Build clean,
tsc clean, 352 tests pass.
Split in-flight assistant text at the last stable block boundary so only
the unclosed tail re-tokenizes per stream delta. Previously the full
text was rendered as plain <Text> during streaming and only flipped to
<Md> at message.complete — cheap per delta but loses live markdown
formatting.
New StreamingMd component holds a monotonically-growing stablePrefix
in a ref (idempotent under StrictMode double-render), renders it as
one <Md> that memoizes across deltas, and renders the unstable suffix
as a second <Md> that re-parses on each delta. Cost per delta drops
from O(total length) to O(unstable length).
findStableBoundary walks back to the last "\n\n" outside an open
fenced code block — splitting inside an open fence would orphan the
opener and break highlighting in the prefix.
Adapted from claude-code's src/components/Markdown.tsx:186 but built
on our line-based tokenizer instead of marked.lexer. 9 new tests cover
fence balance, boundary walk, and empty input.
Part of the --tui perf audit (see audit #7).
