159-162: Wording can be tightened for clarity
“key commands and text as input” reads a bit clunky. Consider shortening to “key commands and text input” (drop “as”).


245-246: Missing comma & missing word ‘action’
Add a comma after the introductory clause and include the word “action” so the sentence flows and matches previous wording.

-To send text as keyboard input use the `remote.send_command` and prefix the text to send with `text:`, e.g. `command: text:hello world` to type "hello world" in the selected input field.
+To send text as keyboard input, use the `remote.send_command` action and prefix the text to send with `text:`, e.g. `command: text:hello world` to type "hello world" in the selected input field.

270-277: Quote the command value containing a colon for YAML safety

While unquoted scalars with an internal colon are technically valid YAML, quoting avoids reader confusion and is generally safer copy-paste material.

-  command: text:Never Gonna Give You Up
+  command: "text:Never Gonna Give You Up"
