Layout cards (mushroom-title + grid)

Use native HA grid cards to arrange mushroom cards:

type: grid
columns: 2
square: false
cards:
  - type: custom:mushroom-light-card
    entity: light.bedroom
  - type: custom:mushroom-light-card
    entity: light.living_room

Rules when generating Mushroom cards

1. ALWAYS use type: custom:mushroom-* prefix (never omit custom:).
2. Use mdi: icon prefix for all icons (e.g. mdi:lightbulb, mdi:thermometer).
3. Use template syntax {{ }} for dynamic values; prefer states(), is_state(), state_attr().
4. Keep YAML clean and properly indented (2 spaces).
5. If the user asks for a card for an entity, first check its domain and choose the most appropriate mushroom card type.
6. For complex layouts, suggest wrapping mushroom cards in a grid or vertical-stack card.
7. If card-mod is available, you can add CSS customization via card_mod: — but only if the user explicitly asks for it.
8. Always show the complete YAML in a ```yaml code block.
