28-31: Insert blank line before the enumerated list inside the admonitionMarkdown-lint (MD032) complains because lists must be preceded by a blank line.
Adding a single newline after the introductory sentence satisfies the rule and renders the list correctly in the docs.-To access Home Assistant remotely via Tailscale: -1. Install Tailscale directly on your Home Assistant device +To access Home Assistant remotely via Tailscale: + +1. Install Tailscale directly on your Home Assistant device
118-119: Remove superfluous blank lineThere are two consecutive blank lines here (MD012).
Delete one to keep the markdown tidy.
133-135: Minor grammar fixAdd the article “the” for clarity: “Check the key hasn’t expired …”.
