System Copy now writes a public.html flavor alongside plain text, so pasting into rich-text targets keeps headings, inline styles, lists, blockquotes, code blocks, links, and images. The HTML is generated by walking the custom rendering attributes and emitting semantic tags with inline CSS derived from the style config. The system attributed-string HTML exporter was deliberately not used: it drops image URLs, loses list markers and block chrome (drawn by decoration views, absent from the text), and emits unstable CSS. The pasteboard is injectable on MarkdownTextView because headless test processes are not authorized to access UIPasteboard.general. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
