+ * Shared plugin chain for rendering user-supplied Markdown (script/flow/resource
+ * descriptions, flow-graph notes, the App "Markdown" component, ...).
+ *
+ * Order matters and is security-sensitive:
+ *  1. `gfmPlugin`          — GitHub-flavored Markdown.
+ *  2. `rehypeRaw`          — re-parses embedded raw HTML into live hast nodes.
+ *  3. `rehypeSanitize`     — strips dangerous nodes (`<script>`, `<iframe>`,
+ *                            `<svg><script>`, `on*` handlers, `javascript:` URLs)
+ *                            from the raw-parsed tree. Without this stage the raw
+ *                            HTML reaches the DOM and executes (stored XSS).
+ *  4. `rehypeGithubAlerts` — runs AFTER sanitize so the trusted alert markup it
+ *                            injects (including inline SVG icons) is preserved
+ *                            without having to allowlist SVG for user input.
+ *
+ * Any Markdown sink that renders user input MUST use this chain rather than
+ * assembling its own `rehypeRaw` pipeline.
