+ * Schema for the rehype-sanitize step that every custom rehype chain below
+ * re-applies.
+ *
+ * Why an explicit sanitize step is needed at all: streamdown@2.5 swaps its
+ * whole default rehype chain `[rehype-raw, rehype-sanitize, rehype-harden]`
+ * for the caller's array as soon as a `rehypePlugins` prop is passed. Any
+ * custom chain therefore silently loses sanitization unless it re-adds one.
+ *
+ * The schema starts from rehype-sanitize's GitHub-style `defaultSchema`
+ * (the same base streamdown's built-in sanitize step uses): it keeps the
+ * legitimate HTML that LLM/authored markdown documents may embed — tables,
+ * `<details>`, images, alignment/size attributes, … — while dropping
+ * `<script>`, `<iframe>`, `<style>`, `on*` event handlers and non-allow-listed
+ * URL schemes such as `javascript:` (`href` is limited to http(s)/mailto/tel
+ * and relative references).
+ *
+ * Extensions over the plain default schema:
+ * - `tel:` hrefs — mirrors streamdown's built-in schema and the scheme
+ *   allow-list in `isSafeHref` (markdown-link.tsx).
+ * - `math-inline` / `math-display` values for `className` on `code` —
+ *   remark-math marks math spans as `<code class="language-math
+ *   math-inline|math-display">` and rehype-katex (which runs *after* the
+ *   sanitize step, see `rehypeSanitizeStep`) detects math through exactly
+ *   those classes. Without this entry sanitize strips the markers and math
+ *   stops rendering. hast-util-sanitize only honors the first definition
+ *   per property name, so the default `^language-.` allow-list is widened
+ *   in place rather than appended to.
+ * - `metastring` on `code` — parity with streamdown's built-in schema.
+ *
+ * Deliberately NOT extended with the `style` attribute/tag, `iframe`, or
+ * arbitrary `className` values: CSS injection enables UI spoofing and the
+ * GitHub allow-list already covers what authored markdown legitimately
+ * needs.
