- Replace simultaneous light activation with sequential (staggered) control
- Add per-light random delays for more natural behavior
- Implement reverse-order light shutdown for realism
- Introduce time-based variations (morning, midday, evening)
- Add randomized music playback using Spotify playlist on Sonos
- Refactor automation using repeat loops and variables for maintainability
- Add daily automation to set tesla_charge_deadline at 07:00 next day (13:05 trigger)
- Add automation to update deadline when car is plugged in
- Ensures smart charging always has valid future window
- Eliminates manual deadline management
- Converted all Tesla sensors and binary_sensors to the modern
`template:` integration format compatible with Home Assistant 2026+
- Combined kWh needed, charge hours, and smart charging decision
into a single template file for inclusion via !include_dir_merge_named
- Preserves existing behavior while preparing for future HA versions
- Legacy template warnings remain for binary_sensor but functionality works
- Only close garage when vehicle tracker is active (speed available)
- Prevents closing when leaving on foot or bike
- Add delay to ensure safe closing after departure
- Align closing logic with car-based opening conditions
- Only open garage if SnowyWhite tracker has valid speed attribute
- Prevents false triggers when car is asleep (speed = unknown)
- Ensures garage opens only when arriving by car, not bike or foot
- Send push notification on successful auto-start of cleaning
- Include elapsed empty-house time in start notification
- Add failure notification if robot fails to start after retries
- Notify when cleaning is stopped due to someone arriving home
- Ensure notifications only trigger on actual state outcomes (not attempts)
- Update leaving trigger to fire on any transition from "home" (not just to "not_home")
- Handle zone-based states (e.g. Arbeit, Dybbroparken) correctly
- Relax SnowyWhite tracker condition to allow non-"not_home" states (fixes blocking on "unknown")
- Improve reliability of presence-based garage control
- Replace fragile `for:` trigger with timestamp-based empty-house logic
- Add input_datetime to track when house became empty
- Introduce time_pattern polling (every 5 min) to avoid missed triggers
- Add retry mechanism (up to 3 attempts) for starting cleaning
- Improve vacuum state handling (docked/idle/charging)
- Add race-safe stop automation when someone returns home
- Split logic into dedicated automations (tracking, reset, start, stop)
- Ensure daily run limit via input_number
Fixes issue where cleaning was not triggered due to presence sensor flapping/unavailable states.
- Replace sensor.claus_distance_home with device_tracker.clausiphone (home/not_home)
- Change triggers from numeric_state to state-based presence detection
- Adjust active time window to 05:00–23:00
- Add push notifications to mobile_app_clausiphone15 on garage open/close
