+
+            Heads up: the legacy ESPHome dashboard (\`esphome/dashboard/\` and \`tests/dashboard/\`) is **deprecated** and is being replaced by [ESPHome Device Builder](https://github.com/esphome/device-builder). We are not adding new features to the legacy dashboard and it will eventually be removed from this repository.
+
+            What this means for your PR:
+
+            - **New features / enhancements**: please port the change to [esphome/device-builder](https://github.com/esphome/device-builder) instead. We are unlikely to review or merge new dashboard features here.
+            - **Bug fixes**: small fixes may still be considered, but please check first whether the same issue exists in Device Builder, where the fix will have a longer life.
+            - **Security issues**: please do not file a public PR. Report privately via [GitHub security advisories](https://github.com/esphome/esphome/security/advisories/new) so we can coordinate a fix.
+
+            We appreciate the contribution and apologize for the friction; flagging this early so your time isn't spent on a change that may not land.
