Syntax highlighting in markdown blocks?

[Lenbok]

When I am in a gptel buffer and the model outputs a code block that includes the language name in the start fence, the code within the block is not syntax highlighted.

If I copy/paste that markdown block into another markdown buffer, syntax highlighting appears.

Is there a way to get the syntax highlighting working directly in the gptel buffer?

I'm not sure what's going on here. There is a toggle in markdown-mode to turn on/off syntax highlighting in markdown blocks (it's markdown-fontify-code-blocks-natively), but this should apply to both of your markdown buffers. I don't know why it's not applying to the gptel one -- it is also just a markdown buffer.

FWIW I get syntax highlighting in all markdown buffers, irrespective of gptel-mode.

OK thanks for the pointer. For me markdown-fontify-code-blocks-natively seems to be nil - maybe something was switching it on in between my gptel and markdown tests. I've now set that to t in my config and everything seems hunky dory. Sorry for the noise.
