Strip harness-style tags the model makes up in its replies

A cloud model wrote a <system_warning> block into a reply, signed "SIGIT-ACP", telling the user the previous turn was injected and should be ignored, then wrapped its question in <Option_Picker>. Neither tag exists in sigit or siGit Code Cloud, and Zed rendered both as raw text (#122). harness_markup.rs filters reply text after the inline tool-call scanner, on the streaming and non-streaming paths, so the editor and the history get the same text. A system_* or system-* block is dropped whole; one that never closes keeps its text without the tag. Any other tag with an underscore in its name loses the tags and keeps the text inside, so the options the model offered still show. Code blocks, inline code, indented code and generics like Vec<Foo_Bar> are left alone. An opening tag only counts at the start of a line, because prose uses the same shape for placeholders like <repo_url>. The system prompt now tells the model to write plain Markdown and to list choices as plain text.

1 +//! Markup a model writes into its reply in the shape of the harness's own.
2 +//!
3 +//! Some models, after enough tool rounds, start writing tags that look like
4 +//! they came from the agent harness: a `<system_warning>` block telling the
5 +//! model (and, once rendered, the user) that the previous turn was injected and
6 +//! must be ignored, or a question wrapped in a made-up `<Option_Picker>`
7 +//! element. Neither tag exists anywhere in siGit Code or siGit Code Cloud. The
8 +//! model invents them, and because `consume_stream` forwards content as it
9 +//! arrives, the editor renders them verbatim (issue #122).
10 +//!
11 +//! The two shapes are handled differently:
12 +//!
13 +//! - A `system_*` / `system-*` block is the model speaking as the harness.
14 +//! Nothing in it is true, and kept in history it teaches later turns to
15 +//! distrust their own earlier replies, so the whole block is dropped from
16 +//! both the reply and the history. One that never closes is given back as
17 +//! text without its opening tag rather than swallowing the rest of the
18 +//! answer.
19 +//! - Any other tag with an underscore in its name is a wrapper the model made
20 +//! up around something it does mean to say, like the options it wants the
21 +//! user to pick from. The tags go and the text inside stays.
22 +//!
23 +//! Nothing inside code is touched: fenced blocks, inline code spans, and
24 +//! indented code lines pass through untouched, as does a `<` straight after an
25 +//! identifier that opens a tag (`Vec<Foo_Bar>`). An opening tag outside a `system_*` block is
26 +//! only removed at the start of a line, because prose uses the same shape for
27 +//! placeholders (`git clone <repo_url>`). A closing tag has no such use, so a
28 +//! stray `</Option_Picker>` goes wherever it is.
29 +//!

31 +//! blocks, whose `<tool_call>` tags would otherwise match the underscore rule.
