📑 Summary

Adds interactive click functionality to gitGraph diagrams, enabling clickable links on commits, branches, and tags. Users can navigate to external URLs by clicking diagram elements, with support for custom tooltips and link targets.

Resolves #5599

🫙 Example

The diagram below shows the structure.

```mermaid
gitGraph
  commit id: "no-click"
  commit id: "commit-same-tab"
  commit id: "commit-new-tab" tag: "tag-new-tab"
  branch branch-same-tab
  checkout branch-same-tab
  commit id: "normal"
  checkout main
  branch branch-new-tab
  checkout branch-new-tab
  commit id: "another" tag: "tag-same-tab"

  %% Click statements add interactivity (syntax shown below):
  click commit "commit-same-tab" "https://example.com/commit1" "same tab"
  click commit "commit-new-tab" "https://example.com/commit2" "new tab" _blank
  click branch "branch-same-tab" "https://example.com/branch1" "same tab"
  click branch "branch-new-tab" "https://example.com/branch2" "new tab" _blank
  click tag "tag-same-tab" "https://example.com/tag1" "same tab"
  click tag "tag-new-tab" "https://example.com/tag2" "new tab" _blank
```

Syntax: click <type> <id> <url> ["tooltip"] [target]

  • <type>: commit, branch, or tag
  • <id>: The element's identifier
  • <url>: Target URL
  • ["tooltip"]: Optional hover text
  • [target]: Optional link target (_blank, _self, _parent, _top)

📏 Design decisions

Following flowchart interaction patterns

The implementation mirrors the click interaction syntax from flowchart diagrams to maintain consistency across Mermaid diagram types:

  • Same syntax structure: click <identifier> <url> ["tooltip"] [target]
  • Same link targets: Supports _self, _blank, _parent, and _top
  • Same security model: Respects securityLevel configuration (disabled in strict, enabled in loose)

Type-specific element targeting

Unlike flowchart where node IDs are globally unique, gitGraph allows the same identifier to exist across different element types (a branch and commit can share an ID). The syntax requires explicit type specification to prevent ambiguity:

click commit "feature-123" "https://example.com"
click branch "feature-123" "https://example.com"
  • Prevents targeting conflicts when IDs overlap
  • Makes click statements self-documenting (clear which element is being linked)
  • Aligns with gitGraph's grammar where elements are type-qualified

Security and accessibility

External links include security and accessibility attributes:

  • Security: Links to different origins include rel="noopener noreferrer" to prevent tab-nabbing attacks
  • Accessibility: Clickable elements include:
    • role="link" attribute for screen readers
    • <title> elements with tooltip text for hover feedback
    • Visual cursor changes to indicate interactivity

Scope limitations

JavaScript callbacks not implemented: Unlike flowchart, this implementation only supports URL links, not JavaScript callback functions. This was a scope decision to deliver the core feature requested in #5599 (linking commits to external resources). Callback support can be added in future iterations if needed.

Use case context (from #5599)

As described in the original feature request, clickable commits make "Mermaid diagrams a powerful bridge between documentation and actual code review context." Teams can:

  • Link commits to pull requests or code review tools
  • Connect branches to CI/CD pipeline dashboards
  • Link tags to release notes or deployment documentation
  • Embed interactive git workflows in project documentation

📋 Tasks

Summary

Adds gitGraph click statements for commits, branches, and tags. Links support optional tooltips and _self, _blank, _parent, or _top targets.

The parser and database store links by element type and ID. The renderer adds clickable SVG links with sanitized URLs, accessible labels, tooltip titles, and interactive styling. Link rendering follows securityLevel behavior, including blocking links in strict mode and using _top in sandbox mode.

Adds syntax documentation, a Changesets entry, unit tests, and end-to-end interaction and visual-regression fixtures.

Testing

The changes add parser, database, renderer, and end-to-end tests. Test execution results were not provided.

Nice feature to have!

If I may add my proposal, would it be possible to have an automatic link on commits that have a 'tag' field to the actual tag <orga_name>/<repo_name>/releases/tag/<tag_name>?
For example:
commit id: "commit-new-tab" tag: "v10.9.5"
would automatically points to
https://github.com/mermaid-js/mermaid/releases/tag/v10.9.5

For example: commit id: "commit-new-tab" tag: "v10.9.5" would automatically points to https://github.com/mermaid-js/mermaid/releases/tag/v10.9.5

I agree this is a good feature and something I thought about including. I decided to cut scope to first implement the overall functionality and syntax for link support. To me, the auto-linking functionality seems like additional options that would go into the chart configuration options that specify something like a link pattern. For example, imagine something like:

---
tagLinkTemplate: https://github.com/mermaid-js/mermaid/releases/tag/{tag}
---

I haven't worked through the syntax and UX yet. For users with GHE or other things they want to link to, I would imagine it needs to be thought about a bit more with additional examples.

Review: feat(gitGraph): Add interactive click support for commits, branches, and tags

First, a sincere apology for the delay, @mkobit — this PR has been open for 92 days and that's far too long for a contribution of this quality. Thank you for your patience and persistence.


What's working well

🎉 [praise] The security model is exemplary. Using native SVG <a> elements instead of JS onclick handlers, sanitizeUrl for URL validation, sanitizeText for tooltip sanitization, CSS.escape() for selector safety, and rel="noopener" for tab security — this is defense-in-depth done right. The explicit test cases for javascript: URL blocking and <script> tag stripping in tooltips show security was a first-class concern.

🎉 [praise] Outstanding test coverage — 3 new test files (gitGraphAst.spec.ts, gitGraphLink.spec.ts, gitGraphRenderer.click.spec.ts) covering DB operations, parser integration, and renderer behavior including edge cases (special characters in IDs, URL sanitization, link overwriting). Plus 9 E2E snapshot tests in cypress/integration/rendering/gitGraph.spec.js. This is exactly the level of thoroughness we want.

🎉 [praise] Clean grammar design in the Langium .langium file — the click syntax is intuitive (click commit "id" "url" "tooltip" _blank) and the target is properly constrained to valid HTML values (_blank, _self, _parent, _top). Using a dedicated statement type rather than allowing HTML in labels was the right architectural call.

🎉 [praise] Good use of data attributes (data-commit-id, data-branch-name, data-tag-name) for element selection rather than fragile class-based or positional selectors. Defensive copy pattern on getLinks() prevents external mutation of internal state.

🎉 [praise] Documentation and changeset both included with correct minor bump and clear examples showing all three click types (commit, branch, tag) with optional tooltip and target.


Items to address

🟡 [important] No explicit securityLevel guard in setupClickEvents()

gitGraphRenderer.ts — The securityLevel parameter is accepted by setupClickEvents() but never checked. The feature relies on the implicit assumption that click statements won't produce links in strict mode, but there's no explicit guard. If someone adds click statements to a diagram rendered in strict mode, the links would still be bound.

Suggested fix: Add an explicit guard at the top of setupClickEvents():

if (securityLevel === 'strict') {
  log.debug('Click events disabled in strict securityLevel');
  return undefined;
}

This matches how flowchart handles it and makes the security boundary explicit rather than implicit.

🟡 [important] sanitizeUrl re-exported from utils.ts — consider import path

utils.ts now re-exports sanitizeUrl from @braintree/sanitize-url. This makes it available to all modules. However, the flowchart click handler and other diagrams import sanitizeUrl directly from @braintree/sanitize-url rather than through utils. For consistency, it would be better to either:

  1. Import directly from @braintree/sanitize-url (matching existing pattern), or
  2. Have all diagrams import from utils.ts (but that's a broader refactor, out of scope)

Using the direct import avoids coupling the gitGraph feature to a new export from the shared utils module.

🟢 [nit] Sandbox mode target override is silent

gitGraphRenderer.ts — When in sandbox mode, the user-specified target is silently overridden to _top. A log.debug() message would help developers understand why their target setting is being ignored.

🟢 [nit] Langium grammar change requires regeneration check

The .langium grammar was modified. Per project conventions, pnpm --filter parser langium:generate must be run and the generated files in packages/parser/src/language/generated/ must be committed. CI should verify this, but worth confirming the generated files are included (I don't see them in the changed files list — they may need to be regenerated).


Security

No XSS or injection issues identified. The implementation follows security best practices:

  • URL sanitization: @braintree/sanitize-url blocks javascript:, data:, vbscript: schemes
  • Tooltip sanitization: sanitizeText() strips HTML tags
  • SVG <a> elements: Native browser link behavior, not inline JS handlers
  • CSS selector escaping: CSS.escape() with fallback regex prevents selector injection
  • rel="noopener": Prevents window.opener exploitation
  • DOMPurify: Final SVG output still passes through DOMPurify sanitization

The only gap is the missing explicit securityLevel check (see 🟡 above), which is a defense-in-depth concern rather than an exploitable vulnerability.


Self-check

  • At least one 🎉 [praise] item exists (5)
  • No duplicate comments
  • Severity tally: 0 🔴 / 2 🟡 / 2 🟢 / 0 💡 / 5 🎉
  • Verdict: COMMENT (2 🟡, no blocking items)
  • Not a draft PR
  • Tone check: appreciative, acknowledges delay, actionable

This is one of the best-implemented feature PRs I've reviewed — thorough security model, comprehensive tests, clean grammar design, and complete documentation. The two 🟡 items are straightforward. Let's get this across the finish line! 🚀

Supplementary Security Review: PR #7292

A deeper security pass surfaced a few additional findings worth addressing:


🟡 [important] sanitizeUrl return check is dead code

gitGraphRenderer.ts — The guard if (!sanitizedUrl) will never trigger. @braintree/sanitize-url returns "about:blank" for dangerous URLs, never undefined/null/"". The code works correctly (dangerous URLs get about:blank as href, which is benign), but the warning log is dead code.

Suggested fix: Check for the actual blocked value:

const sanitizedUrl = sanitizeUrl(linkData.link);
if (sanitizedUrl === 'about:blank') {
  log.warn(`Blocked dangerous URL for ${linkData.type} "${id}": ${linkData.link}`);
  return; // Skip this link entirely rather than creating an about:blank anchor
}

Alternatively, consider using utils.formatUrl() which wraps sanitizeUrl and additionally respects securityLevel — this is what the flowchart diagram uses for its click handling.

🟡 [important] clickable CSS class never added — hover styles won't apply

styles.js defines extensive CSS rules for .commit.clickable, .branchLabel.clickable, and .tag.clickable (cursor, hover effects, focus styles). But setupClickEvents() in the renderer never adds the clickable class to elements that receive anchors. The flowchart equivalent explicitly calls this.setClass(ids, 'clickable').

This means there's no visual indication that an element is clickable — reducing usability and accessibility. Users won't know they can click until they happen to mouse over.

Suggested fix: Add the clickable class to each element group when wrapping it in an <a>:

element.classed('clickable', true);

🟢 [nit] Missing noreferrer on rel attribute

The anchor uses rel="noopener" but not noreferrer. Adding rel="noopener noreferrer" would also suppress the Referer header — a minor privacy improvement, especially for diagrams embedding links to external sites.


These don't change the overall verdict (COMMENT with 2 🟡 from the main review + 2 🟡 here = 4 🟡 total). The security model is fundamentally sound — sanitizeUrl blocks dangerous schemes, SVG <a> elements go through DOMPurify, and the architecture is correct. These are defense-in-depth improvements.

Hi @mkobit, thanks for addressing the issues from the review by @ashishjain0512 .

[sisyphos-bot]


What's Working Well

🎉 [praise] Every single item from the two prior bot reviews has been addressed, cleanly. The securityLevel === 'strict' guard in addInteraction, the about:blank check, the
clickable class, rel="noopener noreferrer", and the sandbox debug log are all correct. This shows real commitment to getting the implementation right.

🎉 [praise] The patch 4 refactor — changing addInteraction to return undefined instead of a bare when there's no interaction — is the right architectural call. The const
parent = interactiveGroup || gBullets pattern keeps non-interactive elements structurally equivalent to the pre-PR behavior, which is exactly why Argos shows no
regressions.

🎉 [praise] The three-file test suite (gitGraphAst.spec.ts, gitGraphLink.spec.ts, gitGraphRenderer.click.spec.ts) is thorough: DB unit tests, full parser round-trips
including all four target values, and renderer integration tests covering strict/loose/sandbox security levels plus the branch+tag case.


Items to Address

🟡 [important] ClickTarget grammar accepts arbitrary strings via STRING — enables frame hijacking

packages/parser/src/language/gitGraph/gitGraph.langium — The grammar rule:

ClickTarget returns string:
STRING | '_blank' | '_self' | '_parent' | '_top';

The STRING alternative makes the four keyword alternatives purely cosmetic — any quoted string is accepted. The value flows directly into a.attr('target', linkData.target)
in addInteraction. While this isn't an XSS vector, a target attribute set to an arbitrary browsing context name (e.g., "attacker-window") enables tab-napping in environments
where named frames exist — a real concern for a library embedded on GitHub/GitLab.

Fix: Remove STRING from ClickTarget so only the four safe keywords are accepted:

ClickTarget returns string:
'_blank' | '_self' | '_parent' | '_top';

🟡 [important] No runtime allowlist for target in addInteraction

gitGraphRenderer.ts — There's no runtime check that linkData.target is one of the four safe values before it's set as an attribute. The as any casts in parseClick mean the
TypeScript union type isn't enforced at runtime. If a target value other than the four safe values reaches addInteraction (e.g., via the grammar gap above, or future code
paths), it gets set as-is.

Fix: Add a runtime allowlist in addInteraction as defense-in-depth:

const SAFE_TARGETS = new Set(['_self', '_blank', '_parent', '_top'] as const);
// ...
if (linkData.target && SAFE_TARGETS.has(linkData.target)) {
a.attr('target', linkData.target);
}

This is independent of the grammar fix and matches the pattern in flowDb.

🟡 [important] No Cypress E2E snapshot for a diagram with click statements

The existing E2E tests pass (no regression), which is great. But per the project's test strategy, renderer/style changes require E2E visual tests — and there's no baseline
snapshot showing a gitGraph diagram WITH click interactions rendering correctly. The styles.js additions (cursor, hover scale, transition) and the anchor-wrapping DOM
changes are only covered by unit tests with mocked getBBox.

A single imgSnapshotTest in cypress/integration/rendering/git/gitGraph.spec.js using the demo diagram from the PR description would provide a visual regression baseline for
future changes:

it('should render gitGraph with click interactions', () => {
imgSnapshotTest(gitGraph commit id: "ONE" click commit "ONE" "https://example.com" "Link" branch dev commit id: "TWO" click branch "dev" "https://example.com/dev", {});
});


Nits

🟢 [nit] href is optional in grammar but required in docs/syntax

The Langium grammar has (href=STRING)? making the URL optional, but the PR description and docs document it as required (click ). A user who writes click
commit "id" with no URL gets no error and no link — silent failure. Either enforce href=STRING (required, matching docs), or document the no-URL no-op behavior explicitly.

🟢 [nit] as any casts in parseClick

db.setLink?.(click.id, click.href ?? '', click.type as any, click.tooltip, click.target as any);

Once the grammar is fixed (removing STRING from ClickTarget), the generated AST will type target as '_blank' | '_self' | '_parent' | '_top' and these casts should be
removable. Worth revisiting after the grammar fix.

🟢 [nit] sanitizeUrl vs formatUrl consistency

addInteraction imports and uses sanitizeUrl directly from @braintree/sanitize-url, while the rest of the codebase (flowchart, class, state diagrams) uses utils.formatUrl()
which wraps it. This is accidentally stricter (sanitizes even in loose mode), not a security regression. Consider switching to formatUrl for consistency and so the security
contract is explicit.


Security

The core security model is sound:

  • sanitizeUrl blocks javascript:, data:, vbscript: and handles obfuscation via iterative decode
  • Tooltip goes through sanitizeText → DOMPurify then .text() (textContent, not innerHTML)
  • DOMPurify's XML allowlist passes xlink:href through but independently validates URI safety — javascript: can't survive both layers
  • rel="noopener noreferrer" is correctly set for cross-origin protection

The two 🟡 security items above are defense-in-depth concerns (tab-napping via arbitrary frame names), not confirmed XSS vectors.


Self-Check

  • At least one 🎉 praise item (3)
  • No duplicate comments
  • Severity tally: 0 🔴 / 3 🟡 / 3 🟢 / 0 💡 / 3 🎉
  • Verdict: REQUEST_CHANGES (3 🟡 issues)
  • Not a draft PR
  • Tone: community — warm, acknowledges good work, actionable

This PR is genuinely close to landing. The implementation quality is high and the security thinking shows in the code. Three targeted fixes — the grammar constraint, a
one-line Set.has() check, and a Cypress snapshot — should get it across the line. Let's do it! 🚀

e2e/platform/click_security_*.html, e2e/diagrams/git/nightly-check/*, e2e/other/pr-check/interaction.spec.js, e2e/sheet-order.json, e2e/helpers/util.ts
Browser tests cover link navigation and tight-security rendering. GitGraph click interactions are added to screenshot fixtures. The fallback screenshot scale changes from device to CSS.
Click documentation and examples
docs/syntax/gitgraph.md, packages/mermaid/src/docs/syntax/gitgraph.md, demos/git.html, .changeset/dirty-corners-relax.md
The syntax documentation describes click directives, targets, tooltips, and security behavior. The demo adds a click-interaction diagram, and the changeset records a minor package change.

In `@packages/mermaid/src/diagrams/git/gitGraphTypes.ts`:
- Around line 132-140: The Git link registry currently keys links only by id,
causing commit, branch, and tag links with the same identifier to overwrite each
other. Update setLink, getLink, and getLinks across the Git graph DB/provider
contracts and implementations to use the (type, id) pair, require type for
lookups, and update renderer call sites accordingly; add a regression test
covering overlapping identifiers across link types.

In `@packages/mermaid/src/diagrams/git/styles.js`:
- Around line 178-188: Update the focus selectors in the Git diagram styles so
they target the outer anchor receiving focus via `a:focus-visible .clickable`,
including the text and commit descendant selectors. Preserve the existing hover
behavior and visual rules while ensuring keyboard focus feedback applies to
clickable groups and their commit shapes.

In `@packages/mermaid/src/docs/syntax/gitgraph.md`:
- Around line 278-292: Update the gitgraph click-link documentation note to
include securityLevel='sandbox' as enabled, and state that sandbox rendering
overrides the specified link target to _top. Keep the existing strict/loose
behavior and target syntax documentation intact.

Looks like the ground moved from under this changeset's feet again.

I'm working on rebasing and resolving the conflicts.

I can't attach the label to run all tests, so still waiting for something from maintainers to move this forward or to close.
