Just for info, it was already mentioned on the forum, but without any attention.

Unfortunately I do not have that much time right now to look into the HA integration (the last time I've contributed to the project, the plugin architecture was quite different and at the moment I am lacking time to read into that).

What I can offer you guys is, that we make the text_mode a global setting that can be set globally in the signal-cli-rest-api container. When set, all messages are sent with text_mode: styled. Would that be helful? If so, then please create an issue in the signal-cli-rest-api github repository.

I suppose so, it is only 1 parameter to enable Markdown.
