#1139 Lab: URLs inside list items aren't clickable (linkified) in rendered issue bodies/summaries

Opened by magistr · 7/14/2026

Description

In the Lab web UI (swamp-club.com/lab), a bare URL rendered inside a list item is shown as plain, non-clickable text — even though the same URL in a normal paragraph is linkified and clickable. So the markdown renderer's autolinking is inconsistent: it fires in paragraphs but not inside bulleted / numbered lists. To follow a URL that happens to sit in a list you have to select-copy-paste it into the address bar.

This is visible both in the issue detail view and in the summary text shown in the Lab issue list.

Prior art — the project has already fixed this class of "text that should be a link isn't" piecemeal:

  • #1053 "Make PR links in Labs details clickable" (feature, shipped)
  • #659 "Can't click on repository from swamp extension search" (bug, shipped)

URLs inside list items in issue bodies/summaries are still not linkified.

Steps to reproduce

Create/view an issue whose body contains a bare URL in a paragraph and the same URL as a list item, e.g.:

Here is a link in prose: https://example.com/foo

- Here is a link in a list: https://example.com/bar
- Second item: https://example.com/baz

Open the rendered issue (or its summary in the list view) on swamp-club.com/lab.

Expected

Both the paragraph URL and the list-item URLs auto-linkify into clickable anchors (and [text](url) markdown links inside list items likewise render as anchors), consistent with how paragraph URLs already render — and with the clickable treatment #1053 gave PR links.

Actual

The paragraph URL is clickable; the URLs inside the list items are plain, non-clickable text.

Environment

  • Surface: swamp-club.com Lab web UI — issue detail view and issue-list summary text
  • Scope: bare URLs (and markdown links) that appear inside bulleted/numbered list items
