 ### Fixed
 
 - Fixed `--session` and `SessionManager.open()` to reject non-empty invalid session files without overwriting them ([#6002](https://github.com/earendil-works/pi/issues/6002)).
+- Fixed user-message transcript rendering to keep visible backslashes in Markdown escape sequences such as `\"` ([#6105](https://github.com/earendil-works/pi/issues/6105)).
 - Fixed assistant messages stopped by output length to show a visible incomplete-response error ([#4290](https://github.com/earendil-works/pi/issues/4290)).
 - Fixed `--no-session --session-id` so ephemeral CLI runs can use deterministic session IDs for provider cache affinity ([#6070](https://github.com/earendil-works/pi/issues/6070)).
 - Fixed disk BMP image files to be detected, converted to PNG, and attached through `read` and CLI `@file` inputs ([#6047](https://github.com/earendil-works/pi/issues/6047)).
