Comprehensive fix for multiple issues in ChatrixCD

Issues Addressed

  • Fix Windows build: libolm CMake compatibility issue (requires CMake 3.5+)
  • Fix macOS build: Set compiler flags to use homebrew libolm
  • Fix TUI CSS: No invalid #panel tag found (false alarm)
  • Fix log formatting: Added HTML rendering with proper line breaks in
     tags
  • Fix markdown escaping: Enhanced markdown_to_html with proper conversion
  • Fix username highlighting: Use full Matrix IDs with HTML links for mentions
  • Improve test coverage: Added tests for new functionality
  • Documentation cleanup: Removed outdated summary files and design docs
  • Fix unit tests: Updated test expectations to match new behavior
  • Fix shellcheck warnings: Improved shell script style in workflows

Changes Made

1. Build Fixes

Windows Build - CMake Compatibility

  • Patched libolm CMakeLists.txt to require CMake 3.5+ on Windows
  • Added validation to ensure CMake patch succeeds
  • Improved regex pattern for better version matching
  • Fixes error: "Compatibility with CMake < 3.5 has been removed from CMake"

macOS Build

  • Set CFLAGS and LDFLAGS to use homebrew-installed libolm
  • Prevents pip from building libolm from bundled source during python-olm installation
  • Build now uses system libolm instead of compiling from scratch
  • Fixed shellcheck warning by using command grouping for environment variable exports

2. Log Formatting

  • Added _ansi_to_html_for_pre() method that strips ANSI codes and preserves newlines
  • Fixed _format_task_logs_html() to use the new method
  • Newlines are preserved naturally in <pre> tags (no <br> needed)
  • Logs now render with proper line breaks and clean formatting

3. Markdown & Mentions

  • Updated markdown_to_html() to convert Matrix mentions (@user:server.com) to HTML links
  • Enhanced regex to support special characters in Matrix IDs (+, _, =)
  • Changed _get_display_name() to return full Matrix IDs
  • Bold, italic, and code formatting now render properly
  • Users are properly highlighted when mentioned (clickable mentions)

4. Test Coverage

  • Added comprehensive tests for all new functionality
  • Fixed existing test to match new behavior (full Matrix IDs)
  • Test for _ansi_to_html_for_pre() verifying ANSI stripping and newline preservation
  • Tests for markdown mention conversion to HTML links
  • Test for _get_display_name() returning full Matrix IDs
  • Test for mentions with special characters

5. Documentation Cleanup

  • Removed 16 outdated files (over 4000 lines of bloat)
  • Repository is cleaner and more focused on essential documentation

6. Code Quality Improvements

  • All code review feedback addressed
  • Fixed shellcheck warnings in GitHub Actions workflows

Compatibility with CMake < 3.5 has been removed from CMake.

Update the VERSION argument value. Or, use the ... syntax

Or, add -DCMAKE_POLICY_VERSION_MINIMUM=3.5 to try configuring anyway.

TUI can't launch because #panel is not a valid tag, please assess if all textual css is valid


Log formatting isn't working well, !cd log doesn't seem to work anymore. When !cd log on is enabled, there are no linebreaks in the log content, so the lines are long and unreadable. Sometimes color characters are still being printed. It would be better if the log was rendered as HTML


Some markdown is still being escaped ** for example are appearing rather than bold, please check


Sometime username is used and the user gets a highlight sometimes its a displayname, please check that their always highlighted by using a consistent format.


Can you run a test coverage assessment, try and improve test coverage and clean up old tests.


Please do a documentation sweep, go through all documentation both in the repo and the github pages and make it more concise (shorter) and accurate (there are loads of bits of information missing, review previous PR's and revise), remove extranous information (no-one cares about a code audit from 4 releases ago). When talking about features, focus on the key features that would be important to users, remove mentions of features that should be expected of a project like this

@copilot Mac can't compile because:

Getting requirements to build wheel: started
...

Fixed in commit 1cb3933. The issue was that pip was trying to build libolm from the bundled source in python-olm instead of using the homebrew-installed version. I added CFLAGS and LDFLAGS environment variables to point pip to the homebrew libolm, which prevents it from building from source.

Fixed in commit f92f291. The test was expecting the old behavior where _get_display_name() returned just @john, but I changed it to return full Matrix IDs (@john:example.com) for proper mention highlighting. Updated the test expectations to match the new behavior.

The regex pattern for Matrix user mentions doesn't match uppercase letters in the localpart, but the comment on line 106 states 'lowercase letters, digits...'. However, Matrix user IDs can contain uppercase letters in the localpart. The pattern should include A-Z in the first character class or the comment should be corrected to match the implementation.

[nitpick] The regex pattern uses PowerShell string escaping but the parentheses in cmake_minimum_required are not escaped. While this works, it's more correct to escape them as \( and \) for clarity, or use a verbatim string pattern. Consider: 'cmake_minimum_required\\(VERSION [0-9]+\\.[0-9]+(?:\\.[0-9]+)?\\)' for better maintainability.

Suggested change
$patchedContent = $originalContent -replace 'cmake_minimum_required\(VERSION [0-9]+\.[0-9]+(?:\.[0-9]+)?\)', 'cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 3.5)'
