Implemented CSS-only overflow containment for KaTeX display math and flex-layout width containment across desktop and mobile chat layout chains. Added Playwright regression tests verifying math content does not cause horizontal page overflow.

Contain KaTeX Math and Chat Flex Overflow

🐞 Bug fix 🧪 Tests 🕐 10-20 Minutes

Grey Divider

AI Description

• Contain oversized KaTeX display equations with local horizontal scrolling.
• Allow desktop and mobile chat flex containers to shrink within viewport widths.
• Add desktop and mobile Playwright regressions for horizontal page overflow.

High-Level Assessment

CSS containment is the appropriate approach because it addresses intrinsic KaTeX width and flex-item shrinking without changing math rendering or application state. Scaling or forcibly wrapping equations would reduce readability, while JavaScript width calculations would add unnecessary runtime complexity.

Review Change Stack

Walkthrough

The chat layout now constrains horizontal width on desktop and mobile screens. KaTeX display math supports contained horizontal scrolling. Responsive tests verify long math messages do not expand the chat container or document.

Changes

Responsive math containment

Layer / File(s) Summary
Chat layout and math constraints
app/globals.css, components/chat.tsx
Chat containers now use minimum-width and alignment constraints. Mobile chat content hides horizontal overflow. KaTeX display blocks stay within their containers and support horizontal scrolling.
Responsive validation coverage
components/chat.tsx, components/message.tsx, components/user-message.tsx, tests/responsive.spec.ts
Chat and message containers expose test identifiers. Desktop and mobile tests submit long math messages and verify container and document widths.

Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to a25c2

This change aims to keep chat layouts and display math within the viewport, but the current checks do not exercise rendered assistant-side KaTeX. A broken math-containment rule could therefore reach users and reintroduce horizontal overflow.

Poem

A rabbit checks the chat’s wide screen,
Math curls neatly, no overflow seen.
On mobile, equations scroll in place,
While test bunnies measure every space.
The containers hold their careful line,
And KaTeX stays safely inside.

Remediation recommended

1. KaTeX regression remains untested 🐞 Bug ⚙ Maintainability
Description
The overflow tests wait only for UserMessage, which renders the submitted LaTeX source as plain
text rather than through KaTeX. They can therefore pass before any bot response or .katex-display
exists, leaving the CSS regression untested.
Code

tests/responsive.spec.ts[R53-54]

+    const userMessage = page.locator('[data-testid="user-message"]').last();
+    await expect(userMessage).toBeVisible();
Evidence
Both added tests select and await [data-testid="user-message"] immediately after submission.
UserMessage places its text directly in a break-words div, whereas only BotMessage configures
remarkMath and rehypeKatex; no bot message or .katex-display is awaited before measuring page
width.

Agent prompt
The issue below was found during a code review. Follow the provided context and guidance below and implement a solution

## Issue description
The desktop and mobile math-overflow tests submit LaTeX but assert only the plain-text user message. Update them to render a deterministic KaTeX-enabled bot response, wait for its `.katex-display` element, verify that the expression is wider than its container where appropriate, and then assert that page-level horizontal overflow remains contained.

## Issue Context
`UserMessage` renders text directly, while Markdown math processing and KaTeX are used only by `BotMessage`. Avoid depending on an uncontrolled assistant response; mock or fixture the streamed bot content so the test reliably receives the intended long display equation.

Context sources
Review mode: ⚖️ Balanced: This is a localized CSS/layout behavior change with responsive end-to-end tests, but it affects shared chat rendering and overflow containment enough to warrant a complete single-pass review.

287-291: 🎯 Functional Correctness

Keep the nested max-width rule. .katex-display remains the horizontal scroll container. The child max-width: 100% does not clip its overflowing math content, so the parent can expose the required scroll range.

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick win

Make the regression tests render KaTeX before measuring overflow.

Both tests submit mathMessage and wait only for [data-testid="user-message"]. components/user-message.tsx, Line [48], renders that content as plain text. KaTeX runs only in components/message.tsx, Lines [21-28], for BotMessage. These tests can pass even if the new .katex-display rules are removed or broken.

Arrange a deterministic assistant response containing the long display equation. Then wait for [data-testid="bot-message"] .katex-display before checking the container and document widths. Apply the same change to both the desktop and mobile cases.

Suggested assertion shape
-    const userMessage = page.locator('[data-testid="user-message"]').last();
-    await expect(userMessage).toBeVisible();
+    const botMessage = page.locator('[data-testid="bot-message"]').last();
+    await expect(botMessage).toBeVisible({ timeout: 15000 });
+    await expect(botMessage.locator('.katex-display')).toBeVisible();

Also applies to: 226-227
