Builds on #3142. Two toggle items that #3142 left open as it.fails tests, and the heading items of the block type select.

What changes

1. Drop a block into a toggle (BLO-956)

A block that you drag onto a toggle's title, chevron or "Add block" button becomes the toggle's first child, as in Notion. Before, you could not drop a block into an empty toggle: there was no place between blocks to drop it.

  • While you drag, the drop cursor shows the place: above the first child, or below the title when the toggle is empty. The toggle gets the same highlight as a selected block.
  • A block that you drag onto a toggle's children still goes between them, as before.
  • A closed toggle opens when it gets a child.

A block turns this on in its meta:

meta: {
  // Toggle list item
  dropsIntoChildren: () => true,
  // Heading: only while it is a toggle heading
  dropsIntoChildren: (block) => block.props.isToggleable === true,
},

How it works:

  • dropIntoChildren.ts finds the block under the pointer and returns the drop position.
  • The drop cursor uses this position and highlights the block. If a drop cursor hook shows a different place (for example a new column), the hook wins.
  • A small handleDrop plugin drops the blocks where the drop cursor shows them. ProseMirror's own drop can only insert at the position under the pointer.
  • Frame chrome (outside the slot) now lets drag-and-drop events through to ProseMirror. Without this, a drop on the chevron or the "Add block" button did nothing. This applies to all frames: the drop cursor already showed a place over chrome, and now the drop goes there too. Chrome with its own drop zone still works, because it cancels the event before ProseMirror sees it.

2. A toggle stays open when its last child goes

When you remove or move out the last child of an open toggle, the toggle stays open and shows the "Add block" button, as in Notion. Before, it closed.

3. One source for the block types that the menus offer (BLO-990, BLO-1236)

The block type select filtered a fixed list of items by prop names and types. This had two bugs:

  • With allowToggleHeadings: false, it showed no headings at all. Each heading item sets isToggleable, and the heading then has no such prop.
  • With levels, it still showed every heading level. Prop values were not checked.

The slash menu already built its heading items from the schema, with its own copy of the rules.

Now getDefaultBlockTypeItems(editor) in core returns the block types that the schema supports, with the props that each one sets: paragraph, the headings of the configured levels, toggle headings (only when the heading has isToggleable), quote and the lists. A regular heading sets isToggleable: false only when toggle headings exist, so it still turns a toggle heading into a regular heading (BLO-959).

The slash menu and the block type select both use this list. Each menu keeps its own order: the slash menu output is the same as before for 5 schemas (keys, titles, badges, aliases, groups and inserted blocks), and the block type select keeps its order.

Issues

Breaking changes

  • blockTypeSelectItems(dict) is now blockTypeSelectItems(editor): the items depend on the schema. The examples are updated.

Testing

  • toggleBlocks.browser.test.ts: drop onto the title, the chevron and "Add block", and onto a child, for both toggles, in Chromium, Firefox and WebKit. These tests use synthetic drag events, because an emulated mouse drag does not reach these targets reliably. The two it.fails tests from feat(core): split keyboard behaviour from container structure #3142 (toggle stays open) now pass. A new layout test checks that the title stays next to the chevron.
  • toggleblocks.test.tsx (e2e): a real mouse drag onto "Add block", in Chromium only. In WebKit, a closing formatting toolbar covers the button during Playwright's emulated drag. This does not happen in Safari.
  • defaultBlockTypeItems.test.ts and BlockTypeSelect.test.ts (node): the default order, the heading props (BLO-959), toggle headings disabled (BLO-1236) and configured levels (BLO-990).
  • The toggle, drag-and-drop, multi-column, custom block, container, block color and static suites pass in all browsers. So do the slash menu, portal menu, ariakit, shadcn, theming and mobile suites. The core, react and tests unit tests and lint pass.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features
    • Drag and drop blocks into toggle headings, toggle list items, and other blocks configured to accept child blocks.
    • Dropped blocks are placed among existing children or added as the first child when the target is empty.
    • Drop targets are highlighted during dragging.
    • Block type menus reflect the block types and heading levels supported by the editor.
  • Bug Fixes
    • Open toggles remain open when their last child is removed or moved elsewhere.

A block dragged onto a toggle's title, chevron or "Add block" button
becomes its first child, as in Notion. The drop cursor shows the place
and the toggle is highlighted like a selected block.

- `meta.dropsIntoChildren` marks a block that takes drops this way.
- The drop cursor finds the target and a `handleDrop` plugin drops the
  blocks where the cursor shows them.
- Drag-and-drop events on frame chrome now reach ProseMirror.
- A toggle stays open when its last child is removed or moved out.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

Toggle blocks can accept dropped blocks as children when their metadata enables child drops. The drop cursor identifies and highlights eligible targets, and ProseMirror inserts dropped blocks as children. An open toggle remains open after its last child is removed. Default block-type items now come from editor schema support and are used by the slash menu and formatting toolbar.

Changes

Toggle child drops

Layer / File(s) Summary
Child-drop contract and target resolution
packages/core/src/schema/blocks/types.ts, packages/core/src/blocks/Heading/block.ts, packages/core/src/blocks/ListItem/ToggleListItem/block.ts, packages/core/src/extensions/DropCursor/dropIntoChildren.ts
Block metadata defines which blocks accept child drops. Toggle headings and toggle list items configure this behavior. The resolver finds valid child-drop positions and rejects unsupported or circular drops.
Cursor and drop execution
packages/core/src/extensions/DropCursor/DropCursor.ts, packages/core/src/pm-nodes/BlockContainer.ts, packages/core/src/editor/Block.css
The drop cursor identifies and marks child-drop targets. ProseMirror handles drops by inserting dragged blocks as children. Frame-chrome drag events reach ProseMirror, and drop targets use the selection highlight styling.
Toggle state and drag validation
packages/core/src/blocks/ToggleWrapper/createToggleFrame.ts, packages/core/src/blocks/ToggleWrapper/toggleBlocks.browser.test.ts, tests/src/end-to-end/toggleblocks/toggleblocks.test.tsx
Removing the last child leaves the toggle open. Browser tests cover toggle layout, drop targets, child order, and dropping onto an empty toggle.

Shared block-type items

Layer / File(s) Summary
Schema-based default items
packages/core/src/blocks/defaultBlockTypeItems.ts, packages/core/src/blocks/index.ts, packages/core/src/extensions/SuggestionMenu/getDefaultSlashMenuItems.ts, packages/core/src/blocks/defaultBlockTypeItems.test.ts
A shared factory returns default block-type entries supported by the editor schema. The slash menu uses those entries, and tests cover item order and heading options.
Formatting-toolbar integration
packages/react/src/components/FormattingToolbar/DefaultSelects/BlockTypeSelect.tsx, packages/react/src/components/FormattingToolbar/DefaultSelects/BlockTypeSelect.test.ts, examples/03-ui-components/03-formatting-toolbar-block-type-items/src/App.tsx, examples/03-ui-components/13-custom-ui/src/MUIFormattingToolbar.tsx, examples/06-custom-schema/*/src/App.tsx
The block-type select generates default items from the editor. Example callers pass the editor, and a test checks the returned item order.

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to cb031

Fix copied-block identities before merging so later edits target the correct block. Also preserve heading choices for unconstrained schemas and document or preserve compatibility with the previous toolbar helper argument.

Security Architecture Review

Security architecture risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to cb031

Child drops can reuse copied block identities or confuse identities between editors, allowing later operations to affect the wrong content. The demonstrated impact concerns editable document integrity; broader authorization or tenant exposure has not been established.

Retained concerns

  • Medium · reliability · inferred: The new child-drop handler treats captured source IDs as destination identities. A copy can retain an ID already present outside the insertion range, making subsequent ID-addressed operations resolve the wrong occurrence. When a cross-editor drop is reported as moved, the handler can also remove a destination block solely because its ID matches the source. This violates document identity and state-ownership guarantees; no broader privilege escalation is established.
Security review details

Security Blast Radius

  • inferred — The supported identity failure affects the editable destination document and its ID-addressed consumers. Multiple editors sharing a browser root are relevant because destination editors populate their drag state from another editor's blocknote/html payload. Exposure beyond those documents depends on host behavior not established here.

Security Findings and Attack Paths

  • inferred — A copy drop can insert a captured block ID while retaining its original occurrence. If that original lies outside the changed range, range-local duplicate detection need not repair the collision, and later updateBlock calls resolve the first matching occurrence. Separately, a moved drop can remove a destination ID match without verifying that the block originated there. These are source-supported document-integrity paths, not verified authorization bypasses.

Trust Boundaries and Controls

  • observed — The child-drop path requires a complete block slice, a content-bearing target, schema opt-in, and rejection of self or descendant insertion. Destination insertion validates node structure and permitted placement. These controls constrain structural mutations but do not establish source-editor ownership or document-wide ID uniqueness.

Resilience and Maintainability Implications

  • observed — A disappeared target falls back to ordinary dropping, and handling clears the captured target state before mutation. Browser tests cover same-editor moves and target disappearance, but their drag helper explicitly uses move=true and does not establish copy-ID or cross-editor ownership behavior.

Hardening Proposals

  • proposed — Separate identity-preserving same-editor moves from identity-creating copies and cross-editor imports. Bind source removal to the originating editor rather than destination ID existence, and normalize copied descendant IDs before insertion.

`handleDrop` used the target from the last `dragover`. If the target
was removed in the meantime (e.g. by a collaborator), it threw halfway
through the move. It now looks up the target first and lets ProseMirror
drop the blocks when it is gone. The drop also clears the highlight.

packages/core/src/extensions/DropCursor/DropCursor.ts:293-316
🗄️ Data Integrity & Integration | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick win

Generate fresh IDs for copy drops.

A same-editor modifier-key copy reaches this handler with moved false, so the source remains in the document. draggedBlocks still contains the source IDs. blockToNode preserves supplied IDs, and UniqueID does not strip them because the drag source uses effectAllowed = "move". Its duplicate check only compares newly changed nodes, not the unchanged source. The copy can therefore create duplicate block IDs. getNodeById returns the first matching block, so later updates can target the wrong block.

The block type select filtered a fixed item list by prop names and types.
With `allowToggleHeadings: false` it showed no headings at all, and with
`levels` it still showed every heading level.

`getDefaultBlockTypeItems(editor)` (core) now returns the block types that
the schema supports, with their props: headings for the configured levels,
toggle headings only when the heading has `isToggleable`. The slash menu
and the block type select both use it, each in its own order.

Breaking: `blockTypeSelectItems(dict)` is now `blockTypeSelectItems(editor)`.

🟡 Minor · Regenerate IDs for copy drops into toggles. · DropCursor.ts:281-323

packages/core/src/extensions/DropCursor/DropCursor.ts:281-323
🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Regenerate IDs for copy drops into toggles.

When moved is false, draggedBlocks still contains the source blocks' IDs. This custom handleDrop inserts those blocks directly, so the normal UniqueID.transformPasted path does not clear the IDs. The source blocks remain in the document.

getNodeById returns the first ordinary block with a matching ID. Later getBlock or updateBlock calls can therefore address the source or the copy based on document order, instead of an independent block.
