Files panel opens Markdown externally instead of in the artifact viewer

What's broken

Clicking a Markdown file in a chat's right-rail Files tab always delegates to macOS. It opens the registered external editor even though Berd already supports Markdown in its in-app artifact viewer.

Steps to reproduce

1. Launch Berd v0.6.2 on macOS Apple Silicon.
2. Open a chat with a project or workspace attached. No agent turn is required.
3. Open the right rail's Files tab.
4. Click README.md.

Expected behavior

README.md opens in Berd's sidebar artifact viewer.

Actual behavior

macOS opens README.md in the registered external editor. On this machine, that editor is Xcode.

Frequency

Every time. The path is deterministic.

Version

Berd v0.6.2, the latest release as of 2026-08-22.

Operating system

macOS 15.7.1 on Apple Silicon.

Model or provider

Not applicable. The bug occurs without an agent turn.

Relevant logs

No relevant log output. The problem is in the frontend click-routing path.

Cause and verified repair direction

FilesList.tsx calls Tauri's openPath(path) for every file. This bypasses ArtifactPolicyContext.openInApp.

A local proof patch routes file clicks through openInApp(path, basename(path)). Supported Markdown and images then open in Berd, while unsupported files still use the operating system.

Verification completed against that patch:

• The new integration test failed before the change because the artifact-viewer state stayed empty.
• The focused FilesList tests pass: 6 of 6.
• The surrounding artifact-viewer tests pass: 49 of 49.
• just check passes.
• The full test run passes: 6,776 tests across 575 files, with one existing skip.
• An isolated app-driver run clicked a real fixture README.md. It created one [data-artifact-viewer-panel], rendered one Markdown h1, matched the exact file in the viewer header, and did not start Xcode.
