     4.  **Lint:** Run `prek` to ensure code is compliant.
     5.  **Commit:** Commit your changes. There is no strict format for commit messages.
     6.  **Pull Request:** Submit a PR against the `dev` branch. The Pull Request title must start with a `[tag]` prefix. For component work, use the component name (e.g., `[display] Fix bug`, `[abc123] Add new component`); for changes to shared/core code that isn't tied to a single component, use `[core]` (e.g., `[core] Add validator`). Update documentation, examples, and add `CODEOWNERS` entries as needed. Pull requests should always be made using the `.github/PULL_REQUEST_TEMPLATE.md` template - fill out all sections completely without removing any parts of the template.
+    7.  **Comments:** When commenting on GitHub PRs or issues, don't tag contributors, especially bots. Avoid referring to list items (e.g. from reviews) with the form #nn - this will be interpreted by GitHub as a reference to issue or PR nn. Keep comments short and exclude irrelevant details, backstories, restatement of previous comments and anything that is already obvious to the reader.
 
 *   **Documentation Contributions:**
     *   Documentation is hosted in the separate `esphome/esphome.io` repository.
