fix(core): unify input rules and preserve literal undo history - #3310
Cross-package integration suite: 27 files passed, 985 tests passed, 4 skipped; style schema snapshot updated for the new extensions.
CI passes: build, all Chromium/Firefox/WebKit browser and PDF suites, security checks, and deployments. The WebKit screenshot job passed on rerun without baseline changes.
Demo
Before (left) and after (right): italic, bold, inline code, heading, divider, Enter-triggered code blocks, and inline math.

Summary by CodeRabbit
New Features
Input rules can create blocks, apply styles, or insert inline content, with improved handling of whitespace and existing formatting.
Bold, italic, strikethrough, and code shortcuts support additional delimiter patterns. Math delimiters can create inline math when the required math support is available.
Bug Fixes
Backspace more reliably reverses the latest input-rule conversion, restoring the original text.
Documentation
Expanded guidance and examples explain input-rule behavior, matching, replacement, and undo.
BlockNote adds a shared input-rule engine for block, styled-text, and inline-content replacements. Built-in formatting shortcuts and math delimiters use declarative rules. The change also updates Backspace undo handling, the public rule type, and input-rule documentation.
Changes: Input-Rule Engine
Layer / File(s)
Summary
Input-rule contract and style support packages/core/src/editor/BlockNoteExtension.ts, packages/core/src/api/nodeConversions/blockToNode.ts, packages/core/src/schema/styles/internal.ts, docs/content/docs/features/extensions.mdx
InputRule is exported and accepts styled text and partial inline content alongside partial blocks. The documentation describes these forms and renames the plugin option to prosemirrorPlugins. Style conversion exposes stylesToMarks and forwards optional extensions to internal style specs.
Shared input-rule engine and registration packages/core/src/editor/inputRules.ts, packages/core/src/editor/managers/ExtensionManager/index.ts
A shared adapter compiles declarative rules into ProseMirror rules and handles replacement behavior and plain Enter. ExtensionManager passes aggregated rules to the adapter.
Built-in style and math rules packages/core/src/blocks/defaultBlocks.ts, packages/math-block/src/inlineContent/helpers/extensions/MathInlineInputRulesExtension.ts, packages/math-block/src/inlineContent/helpers/extensions/MathInlineInputRulesExtension.test.ts, packages/math-block/package.json
Built-in bold, italic, strike, and code shortcuts, plus math delimiters, use declarative input rules. Math tests check conversion and Backspace restoration; the math package removes its direct input-rules dependency.
Backspace undo and editor validation packages/core/src/extensions/tiptap-extensions/KeyboardShortcuts/KeyboardShortcutsExtension.ts, packages/core/src/editor/inputRules.test.ts
Backspace attempts editor history undo when an input rule was recently applied. Headless tests cover undo and redo, rule ordering, Enter handling, formatting, and collaborative history.

Assert the converted math source before undo.
Both inline cases check only the node type. A rule that inserts "wrong" can pass this test because Backspace restores the typed literal. Assert the source before undo.

Update the assertions in both inline input-rule cases to verify the math node’s
content matches the typed source before undo or Backspace, rather than checking
only that its type is math.

- Around line 231-235: Update the space-triggered backtick code rule’s replace
callback to preserve existing comment annotation marks when converting the
matched text. Keep the code style on the converted text and the trailing-space
behavior unchanged.
Review comments at @packages/core/src/editor/inputRules.ts:
- Around line 42-55: Validate the nodes produced by inlineContentToNodes against
the parent schema before replacing the trigger in this input-rule branch; return
null when the replacement is incompatible so the literal trigger remains, and
preserve the existing isEnter behavior.
Review comments at
@packages/math-block/src/inlineContent/helpers/extensions/MathInlineInputRulesExtension.ts:
- Around line 20-22: Update the replacement logic in
MathInlineInputRulesExtension to check whether the math inline node is available
before constructing a replacement; return undefined when it is absent, and
preserve the existing source-dependent replacement behavior when it is present.
