In `@docs/content/docs/reference/editor/manipulating-content.mdx`:
- Line 145: Update the public insertBlocks method signature to return Block[]
instead of void, matching BlockManager.insertBlocks and the command’s
inserted-block result. Ensure the method documentation reflects this return
value and the forwarded result is preserved for consumers.
In `@packages/core/src/api/blockManipulation/commands/moveBlocks/moveBlocks.ts`:
- Around line 234-237: Update moveBlocks to derive MovedBlock from
flattenColumns(blocks) before validation and insertion-position calculation,
while retaining the original blocks collection for removal. Ensure moveBlocksUp
and moveBlocksDown receive the flattened blockContainer-compatible selection so
valid moves spanning columns are not rejected.
In `@packages/core/src/api/blockManipulation/commands/updateBlock/updateBlock.ts`:
- Around line 647-652: Update the table-position mapping in the block update
flow around blockInfo.hasContent to use tr.mapping.slice(stepsBefore) before
mapping blockInfo.content.beforePos or blockInfo.block.beforePos. Preserve the
existing content-position preference and fallback scan, matching the mapping
approach used by removeAndInsertBlocks so caller-applied steps are not mapped
twice.
In
`@packages/core/src/extensions/tiptap-extensions/KeyboardShortcuts/KeyboardShortcutsExtension.ts`:
- Around line 263-266: Update the branch in KeyboardShortcutsExtension to
compare bottomNestedPrevBlockInfo.contentKind instead of
content.node.type.spec.content for both canonical content checks, preserving
table caret/node selection behavior for function-valued Tiptap content.
In `@packages/core/src/schema/blocks/createSpec.ts`:
- Around line 207-213: Update checkNodeMatchesConfig so equivalent content
expressions are accepted instead of compared as raw strings, such as treating
“(text)*” and “text*” as matching for plain blocks. Use the existing semantic
expression validation/parsing utilities if available; otherwise downgrade this
mismatch check to a development-time warning while preserving rejection of
genuinely incompatible content.

… for block plumbing Replaces the BlockInfo union's isBlockContainer/childContainer/blockContent shape with block/content/children, and annotates it with the facts callers kept re-deriving by hand: contentStart/contentEnd, childrenStart/ childrenEnd, contentKind (read off the spec config stored on the node), and isContentEmpty. The +1/-1 position arithmetic around content edges, tables and child ranges moves into blockEdgePos/blockEdgeSelection/ tableContentCaretPos and the ChildrenInfo fields. The six producers collapse to four named by the input you already have: getBlockInfoFromNode, getBlockInfoAt, getBlockInfoNearPos, getBlockInfoFromSelection. Block navigation (parent/prev/next/last- descendant) joins them here instead of living beside the merge command. All block manipulation (insert/move/nest/replace/split/update, selections, clipboard, serialization, conversions, keyboard shortcuts) is rewired onto the new vocabulary. insertBlocks gains "first-child"/"last-child" placements resolved through getInsertionPos, shared with the move commands so "can this block go here?" has one schema-driven answer; hand-written nodes are checked against their declared content kind when the schema is built (checkNodeMatchesConfig).

Summary
Reworks
BlockInfointo a single, uniform vocabulary for reading and writing blocks in ProseMirror positions, removing most of the manual+1/-1position arithmetic sprinkled across the codebase.New BlockInfo model
BlockInfois now a discriminated union over what a block contains:block— wrapper-level info (block,children)content/hasContent— addscontentStart,contentEnd,contentKind(read from the node spec viaNodeSpec.blockConfig),isContentEmptychildren— addschildrenStart/childrenEnd(ChildrenInfo)Producers reduced 6 → 4
getBlockInfoFromNode,getBlockInfoAt,getBlockInfoNearPos,getBlockInfoFromSelectiongetParentBlockInfo,getPrevBlockInfo,getNextBlockInfo,getLastDescendantBlockInfoblockEdgePos/blockEdgeSelection/tableContentCaretPoshelpers replace hand-rolled table caret arithmetic intextCursorPosition.tsNew insertBlocks placements
insertBlocksnow supports"first-child"and"last-child"in addition to"before"/"after", via a sharedgetInsertionPoshelper that descends into wrapper blocks as needed.NodeSpec.blockConfig
Block specs now attach their resolved
BlockConfigonto the TipTap node spec (extendNodeSchema), so low-level code can readcontentKindfrom the schema instead of re-deriving it by string-matching node names. Hand-written nodes (viacreateBlockSpecFromTiptapNode) are validated withcheckNodeMatchesConfig.Adopted across the codebase
