fix: add responsive table wrapper to prevent overflow#115
Conversation
Add ResponsiveTable component that wraps markdown tables in a scrollable container to prevent wide tables from expanding beyond chat boundaries. Uses Tailwind CSS overflow-x-auto and max-w-full classes to enable horizontal scrolling when needed. Fixes #114 Co-authored-by: marksftw <marksftw@users.noreply.github.com>

238-244: Avoid passingchildrentwice when spreading props
{...props}already contains achildrenkey. Passing the sameprops.childrenagain can cause React to keep two different references for the same node and may emit a warning ("Receivedtruefor a non-boolean attribute"in some React versions).
A small refactor makes the intent explicit and prevents double assignment:-function ResponsiveTable(props: JSX.IntrinsicElements["table"]) { - return ( - <div className="overflow-x-auto max-w-full"> - <table {...props}>{props.children}</table> - </div> - ); -} +function ResponsiveTable({ children, ...rest }: JSX.IntrinsicElements["table"]) { + return ( + <div className="overflow-x-auto max-w-full"> + <table {...rest}>{children}</table> + </div> + ); +}

Looks good.
