 ### Client structure
 Vite SPA. Code is organized by feature under `apps/client/src/features/*` (mirrors the server domains: `page`, `space`, `comment`, `ai-chat`, `editor`, …). Conventions:
 - **TanStack Query** for server state (one `queries/` file per feature), **Jotai** atoms for local/shared UI state, **Mantine 8** + CSS modules (`*.module.css`) + `postcss-preset-mantine` for UI.

 - Runtime config is injected at build time by `vite.config.ts` via `define` (`APP_URL`, `COLLAB_URL`, `APP_VERSION`, …) — these come from the root `.env`, not from `import.meta.env`.

 ### Changed
 
+- **Client markdown paste/copy and AI-chat rendering now go through the canonical
+  converter.** Pasting markdown into the editor, "Copy as markdown", the AI title
+  generator, and the AI-chat markdown renderer all now use
+  `@docmost/prosemirror-markdown` (via its new `browser` entry — native
+  `DOMParser`, no jsdom in the client bundle) instead of the hand-written
+  `marked`/`turndown` markdown layer in `editor-ext`, which was **deleted**. As a
+  result, pasting canonical markdown (`^[…]` footnotes, `<!--img …-->`,
+  `> [!type]` callouts, `$…$` math, `==…==` highlight, standalone `<!--subpages-->`
+  comments) now produces the SAME nodes the server import produces for the same
+  text. Chat/reasoning markdown now renders through the editor schema (list items
+  are wrapped in `<p>`; CSS keeps them tight). (#347)
+
 - **Enabling a public share no longer auto-shares the whole sub-tree.** Turning
   a page "Shared to web" now defaults to the page alone; descendant pages become
   public only when you explicitly turn on the dedicated "Include sub-pages"

-/**
- * #206 mdrt-2 — Markdown export must never SILENTLY drop a block. (FIXED)
- *
- * `htmlToMarkdown` (turndown) historically only registered rules for a fixed
- * set of custom nodes (callout, taskItem, details, math, iframe, htmlEmbed,
- * image, video, footnote). Any other custom node — `transclusionReference`,
- * `pageBreak`, `mention`, `status` — fell through to turndown's default
- * handling: an empty wrapper is "blank" and removed, so the block disappeared
- * from the exported Markdown with no trace, and `mention`/`status` collapsed to
- * bare text, losing their identity (data-id / data-color). The invariant
- * "never silently lose a block" was broken.
- *
- * The fix adds lossless turndown rules that re-emit each of these nodes as raw
- * HTML carrying every `data-*` attribute. Plain-Markdown viewers ignore the
- * inert tag; the import path round-trips it (`markdownToHtml` passes the raw
- * HTML through and each node's `parseHTML` rebuilds the ProseMirror node). These
- * tests assert the surviving contract (the block is preserved AND its identity
- * round-trips back through import).

+schema mirror (#293/#345/#347). Headless and framework-free: no React. There is
+exactly ONE copy of this converter in the repo, consumed by:
 
 - `packages/mcp` (the MCP server),
 - `packages/git-sync` (two-way Git sync),
-- `apps/server` (server-side markdown import/export, #345).
+- `apps/server` (server-side markdown import/export, #345),
+- `apps/client` (markdown paste/copy + AI-chat render, #347).
+
+### Node vs browser entry
+
+The HTML→DOM stage of markdown import runs on `jsdom` in Node and the native
+`DOMParser` in the browser, injected per environment so **jsdom never enters a
+client bundle**:
+
+- default entry (`@docmost/prosemirror-markdown`) — Node: registers jsdom +
+  `@tiptap/html`'s happy-dom `server` `generateJSON`. Used by mcp / git-sync /
+  apps/server.
+- `browser` entry (`@docmost/prosemirror-markdown/browser`, via the `"browser"`
+  exports condition) — registers the native `DOMParser` + `@tiptap/html`'s
+  browser `generateJSON`. Used by `apps/client`; carries no jsdom/happy-dom.
+
+Both entries expose the identical converter surface; only the injected
+DOM/`generateJSON` implementations differ (`src/lib/dom-parser.ts`). A
+`markdownToProseMirrorSync` variant exists for callers that cannot await (the
+client's synchronous chat renderer).
 
 `src/lib/docmost-schema.ts` **mirrors** the upstream Tiptap schema that lives in
 `packages/editor-ext`. The mirror is not free-floating: `serializer-contract.test.ts`

+ * post-`marked` DOM passes (task-list bridge, comment directives, footnote
+ * assembly) that need a real DOM to query/mutate an HTML fragment. On the NODE
+ * path that DOM comes from `jsdom`; in the BROWSER the platform already provides
+ * a native `DOMParser` and `document`, and `jsdom` must NOT be bundled (size +
+ * it is Node-only). So the concrete parser is INJECTED per environment rather
+ * than imported statically here — this module carries no `jsdom` (or any DOM)
+ * import, so nothing on the browser code path can transitively pull `jsdom` in.
+ *
+ * The Node entry (`./dom-parser.node.js`, loaded by the package's default
+ * `index.js`) registers a jsdom-backed parser; the browser entry
+ * (`./dom-parser.browser.js`, loaded by the `browser.js` barrel) registers a
+ * `window.DOMParser`-backed one. A consumer that forgets to load an entry (e.g.
+ * a raw deep import) gets a clear error instead of a silent wrong-environment
