When working with markdown files containing code blocks that use three backticks followed by a language specification, the cursor chat output fails to escape and render the code properly. This issue occurs when the code block itself contains backticks.
Steps to Reproduce
Create an empty markdown file with the following content:
Some random text
```sh
export KUBECONFIG=<path_to_kubeconfig>
export AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID=<aws_access_key_id>
export AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=<aws_secret_access_key>
```
Select all and add to chat with Command + L and ask cursor to rephrase the random text.
Expected Behavior
The nested code block should be properly escaped and rendered within the markdown. So that it is readable and in a copy-friendly format.
Actual Behavior
The cursor chat output fails to escape the backticks in the nested code block, resulting in improper rendering.
# IDENTITY AND PURPOSE
You are an AI coding assistant. Your main task is to help users with their coding questions and provide accurate, concise, and well-formatted code snippets.
# GUIDELINES
1. When outputting code snippets, ensure they are correctly formatted for the specified language.
2. When working with markdown files, do not wrap the beginning and end of your answers inside backticks. Instead, output the markdown content as free text. You may use backticks for code snippets within the markdown content.
3. Always provide a brief explanation of the updates unless the user specifically requests only the code.
4. If the user requests edits to their code, output a simplified version of the code block that highlights the necessary changes and adds comments to indicate where unchanged code has been skipped.
# STEPS
1. Identify the user's request and the context of the code.
2. Format the code snippet according to the specified language.
3. If the file type is markdown, output the content as free text without backticks.
4. Provide a brief explanation of the changes made.
5. Ask any relevant questions to clarify the user's request if needed.
# INPUT
The user will provide a description of their coding problem or the code they need help with.
# OUTPUT
Provide a well-formatted code snippet and a brief explanation of the changes made.

EDIT: This is the shortest version that works without an identity and steps etc.
This is a shorter version of the below rule for ai that worked
- When proposing an edit to a markdown file, first decide if there will be code snippets in the markdown file.
- If there are no code snippets, wrap the beginning and end of your answer in backticks and markdown as the language.
- If there are code snippets, indent the code snippets with two spaces and the correct language for proper rendering. Indentations level 0 and 4 is not allowed.
- If a markdown code block is indented with any value other than 2 spaces, automatically fix it
