Descrizione
### Summary
In the desktop app's **Plan** canvas (the built-in markdown viewer/editor), a fenced code block that has a **language info-string on its opening fence** (e.g. ` ```csharp `) is not closed by a bare closing fence (` ``` `). The renderer treats the bare closing fence as content and leaves the code block "open," so **the entire remainder of the document renders as code** — headings (`##`), blockquotes (`>`), lists, and inline code all stop being parsed as markdown.
Per the [CommonMark spec §4.5](https://spec.commonmark.org/0.31.2/#fenced-code-blocks), a closing code fence **must not** carry an info string; a bare ` ``` ` is the *correct* way to close a ` ```csharp ` block. VS Code (and GitHub itself) render all the variations below correctly, so the file is valid — the app's renderer is non-conformant.
### Repro
Open any `.md` file in the app's **Plan** panel containing:
- Opening fence with a language tag (` ```csharp `)
- Some code lines
- A bare closing fence (` ``` `)
- Followed by a heading / blockquote / more markdown
Observed behavior by variant (same content, only the fences changed):
| Opening fence | Closing fence | App Plan renderer | VS Code |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| bare ` ``` ` | bare ` ``` ` | Minor glitch: a stray ` ``` ` line leaks out, but content after the block recovers | ✅ correct |
| ` ```csharp ` | bare ` ``` ` | **Broken: bare closer not matched → the block never closes and the entire rest of the document renders as code** | ✅ correct |
| 4-space indented block (no fences) | n/a | ✅ correct | ✅ correct |
### Expected
A bare ` ``` ` closing fence should close a language-tagged opening fence (` ```csharp `), matching CommonMark and VS Code. Content after the block should resume normal markdown parsing.
### Actual
The language-tagged block is only closed by an identically-tagged fence; a spec-correct bare closer is swallowed as content, breaking rendering for everything below the block.
### Workaround
- Use an indented (4-space) code block instead of a fenced one, **or**
- Omit the language info-string so both fences are bare (this still leaks a stray ` ``` ` line but at least doesn't break the rest of the doc).
### Environment
- GitHub Copilot desktop app, version 1.0.71
- OS: Windows 11
- Surface: **Plan** canvas (markdown viewer/editor), `media=text/markdown`
### Notes
Screenshots demonstrating all three variants (app vs. VS Code side-by-side) are available and can be attached to this issue.

Inizia riproducendo il problema nel pannello Plan dell’app desktop con un file Markdown contenente un fence di apertura con tag di linguaggio, un fence di chiusura senza tag e contenuto Markdown successivo. La correzione è completa quando il fence di chiusura senza tag termina il blocco fenced e i titoli, i blockquote, gli elenchi e il codice inline successivi vengono renderizzati normalmente, in conformità con CommonMark e VS Code.
