Stacked on #6433 — only the commits after the parent PR are new; it builds on the signed workspace-file asset URLs introduced there.

Problem

Expanding a "Viewed (image)" / image-read tool call in the timeline only showed the file path as text — the image the agent looked at was never visible (raised by maria on Discord as a follow-up to #6433).

Fix

Read-classified tool entries (image_view, file-read, Cursor's "Read File") whose detail is a single workspace image path now render the image itself above the text detail when the row is expanded:

  • Web: a new ToolCallExpandedImage in MessagesTimeline loads the image through the signed workspace-file asset URL, only while the row is expanded (collapsed rows never fetch). Clicking opens the existing image lightbox. On load failure it renders nothing — the path stays visible in the text body.
  • Mobile: ThreadFeedActivity rows carry a viewedImagePath, and the expanded work-log detail reuses ThreadMarkdownImage (loading/unavailable states, fullscreen viewer on tap) via a render prop from ThreadFeed.

The image-path predicate reuses isWorkspaceImagePreviewPath from @t3tools/shared, so the client only attempts extensions the asset route will actually serve. Unit tests cover the web predicate; the mobile activity fixture gained the new field.

Web

Before

Before: expanding a viewed-image tool entry shows only the file path as text

After

After: the expanded entry renders the viewed image above the path

Mobile (iOS Simulator)

Before

Mobile before: expanding the viewed-image work-log row shows only the path

After

Mobile after: the expanded row renders the viewed image with the path beneath


Built with Claude Fable 5 on Claude Code.


Note

Low Risk
UI-only timeline/work-log previews using existing signed workspace-file asset URLs; no changes to auth or orchestration logic.

Overview
Expanded read/view tool rows now show the actual workspace image above the path text, not just the path string.

A new @t3tools/client-runtime/work-log-images module centralizes workEntryIsRead and workEntryViewedImagePath (single-line image paths via isWorkspaceImagePreviewPath). Mobile ThreadFeedActivity carries viewedImagePath; expanded ThreadWorkLog rows render it through a renderViewedWorkImage prop that reuses ThreadMarkdownImage and the existing fullscreen viewer. Web PlainWorkEntryRow mounts ToolCallExpandedImage only while expanded: signed workspace-file URLs, loading skeleton, click-to-lightbox, silent failure with path still in the text body.

Web toolGroupAction read detection now uses the shared predicate (including trimmed, case-insensitive "read file" dynamic tools). PlainWorkEntryRow keyboard expand/collapse ignores Enter/Space when focus is inside child controls.

Reviewed by Cursor Bugbot for commit c6eb2d2. Bugbot is set up for automated code reviews on this repo. Configure here.

Note

Add inline image previews to expanded tool entries on web and mobile

  • Adds shared utilities in workLogImages.ts to detect read/view entries (workEntryIsRead) and extract a workspace image path (workEntryViewedImagePath).
  • Mobile ThreadWorkLog renders a ThreadMarkdownImage above text details when viewedImagePath is present, using a new renderViewedImage callback.
  • Web MessagesTimeline adds ToolCallExpandedImage to lazy-load workspace images with a loading skeleton and lightbox support, suppressing the preview on fetch error.
  • Behavioral Change: threadActivity.ThreadFeedActivity interface now requires viewedImagePath: string | null; MessagesTimeline.PlainWorkEntryRow keyboard handler ignores Enter/Space from nested focusable elements.

Macroscope summarized c6eb2d2.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features
    • Added inline image previews for images viewed in thread work-log entries.
    • Images can be opened in an expanded, zoomable viewer on mobile and web.
    • Added loading states and graceful handling when an image cannot be loaded.
  • Bug Fixes
    • Improved recognition of supported file-read entries across capitalization and whitespace variations.
    • Prevented invalid image paths containing line breaks from being displayed.
  • Tests
    • Added coverage for image previews, path detection, and supported work-log entry types.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

Work-log read and view entries now expose validated workspace image paths. Expanded web and mobile work-log views render these images and open them in image viewers.

Mobile thread feeds forward an image renderer to expanded work-log rows. The renderer displays workspace images and opens the expanded viewer when pressed.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to 201be

The PR renders workspace images in expanded read entries on web and mobile. It is mergeable with owner awareness because the web path handling does not visibly enforce workspace-root containment before asset resolution, which could request an out-of-workspace image if upstream validation is insufficient.

Approvability

Verdict: Not approved

Macroscope's review found this PR not approvable — This PR introduces new workspace-image previews and lightbox interactions across the production web and mobile work-log paths, with new asset loading and feed-model plumbing. Its scope is beyond a minor isolated UI adjustment, so the cross-platform runtime behavior merits human review.

You can add or adjust custom eligibility rules. Learn more.

Agents reference screenshots they saved into the workspace by path
(relative, absolute, or file://). Those bytes only exist on the
environment host, so both clients rendered a broken or empty box.

Web: a custom img renderer resolves workspace paths through the signed
workspace-file asset endpoint; remote http(s)/data images keep their
existing inline rendering.

iOS: the t3-markdown-text module accepts a renderImage hook (provided
via context) and ThreadFeed supplies a component that resolves paths
against the workspace root, loads via useAssetUrl, and supports
tap-to-expand into the existing full-screen viewer.

Android: the nitro-markdown fallback path registers an image renderer
backed by the same component.
- Surface asset-URL failures as 'Image unavailable' instead of an
  indefinite spinner (useAssetUrlState on mobile mirrors web's states).
- Normalize file:///C:/... drive URIs (drop the URL parser's leading
  slash) and map file://host/share URIs to UNC paths.
- Treat protocol-relative //cdn... image srcs as directly loadable on
  web and non-workspace on mobile.
…play

Review bot follow-ups: the mobile markdown-image parser rewrote the
historical file://localhost/... spelling into a UNC path, and the web
workspace image's 'block' utility lost to the unlayered
.chat-markdown img rule, so its display flipped when loading finished.
Also announce the loading placeholder to assistive tech via role=status.
Expanding a 'Viewed (image)' or image-read tool call previously showed
only the file path as text. Read-classified entries whose detail is a
single workspace image path now render the image itself above the text
detail, loaded through the same signed workspace-file asset URL the
chat markdown images use. Web rows open the existing lightbox on click;
mobile reuses ThreadMarkdownImage with its fullscreen viewer.
Review bot follow-ups: keydown on the preview button bubbled to the
row's role=button handler, whose preventDefault cancelled the button's
click activation — Enter/Space collapsed the row instead of opening the
lightbox. Stop key events at the expanded-body wrapper like pointer
events, give the button a focus-visible ring, and swap the hand-rolled
loading placeholder for the shared Skeleton with role=status.

One finding on the new expanded-row image preview: the blanket onKeyDown={stopRowToggle} also swallows window-level keyboard shortcuts while the preview button is focused. Details inline.

Centralize the shared image-path classifier in packages/client-runtime.

The web and mobile implementations currently duplicate the supported-entry and path-validation rules. Keep one minimal classifier and import it from both clients so those rules cannot drift and classify the same read entries differently.

Fixed in 64d99e1. The image-entry classifier now lives in @t3tools/client-runtime/work-log-images and both web and mobile consume it; the shared package owns the focused classifier coverage.

One finding: the read-entry predicate is now duplicated between MessagesTimeline.logic.ts and the new shared workLogImages.ts. Everything else in the web changes looks consistent — the preview button follows the existing cursor-zoom-in image-target pattern in this file, the loading state now uses the shared Skeleton primitive, the asset URL is scoped to the row's threadRef.environmentId (with the control suppressed when threadRef is null), and the row keydown guard plus stopRowToggle keep Enter/Space activation on the image from toggling the row.
