Research direction

Reproduce the issue on the conversation list with a message containing a Markdown link, then trace the Android conversation-list preview from the relevant UI entry point; no file or test is named in the report. Done means the preview no longer exposes raw Markdown, with the intended rendered or text-only behavior confirmed.
