I'm not understanding this one:
Provide a clearer distinction between code for automation and code for configuration in the examples.
They are both part of the same configuration.
Your addition therefore makes it more confusing IMHO. Could you clarify what your confusion is about?

98-99: Add blank lines around code blocks for better readabilityAccording to markdown best practices, fenced code blocks should be surrounded by blank lines. This improves readability and ensures proper rendering.
Add blank lines before and after these code blocks:
step: 1 + ```yaml # configuration.yaml entry
{% endraw %}

100-102: Consider adding prerequisite information for irsendThe example effectively demonstrates template usage, but the
irsendcommand might need additional context for users.Consider adding a note about:
- Prerequisites for using
irsend(e.g., LIRC installation)- Link to LIRC documentation or setup instructions
- Explanation of the DELONGHI AC command format

🛠️ Refactor suggestion
Add security warning about file access
The example effectively demonstrates response handling, but should include security considerations.
Add a warning note about:
- Ensuring proper file permissions
- Restricting access to sensitive files
- Using absolute paths within the Home Assistant configuration directory
- Input validation for the filename parameter
Example addition:
{% note title="Security" %}
Ensure that:
- The file is within the Home Assistant configuration directory
- The file has appropriate read permissions
- The filename parameter is properly validated
- Access to sensitive files is restricted
{% endnote %}
Provide a clearer distinction between code for automation and code for configuration in the examples.
