Works With HA-dot-quote0-card

• Role split: HA-dot-quote0 handles device integration, entities, and service actions; HA-dot-quote0-card provides dashboard UI interactions
• Install order: install this integration first, then install the card; the card discovers Quote/0 devices that are already available in Home Assistant
• Recommended usage: use the card for daily manual actions and preview; use integration service actions in automations (weather, calendar, system status)
