HA-Automations

Home Assistant configuration snippets for lighting, media, and bedroom presence automations.

This repository is currently a focused automation/config export rather than a full Home Assistant instance backup. The goal is to keep the logic versioned, portable, and easier to review.

Repository Layout

• configuration.yaml: Core Home Assistant configuration and MQTT sensor definitions.
• automations.yaml: Main automation rules.
• scripts.yaml: Placeholder include file so the config can load cleanly.
• scenes.yaml: Placeholder include file so the config can load cleanly.
• themes/: Placeholder themes directory required by configuration.yaml.
• blueprints/: Imported Home Assistant blueprints used for reusable automation/script patterns in the live instance.
• custom_components/: HACS and locally installed custom integrations in the live instance.
• www/: Frontend assets served by Home Assistant.
• tts/: Generated text-to-speech cache.
• deps/: Home Assistant dependency cache for the running container.

What Is Automated

• Bedroom bedtime and wake-state lighting flows
• Bed occupancy and radar presence handling
• Spotify-driven dining-room amp control
• Outdoor lighting at sunset/sunrise
• Kitchen, sunroom, music-room, and garage-entry motion lighting

Required Home Assistant Helpers And Entities

This repo references entities that are expected to exist in the Home Assistant instance. The most important ones include:

• input_boolean.input_boolean_bedroom_sleep_mode
• input_boolean.music_room_occupied
• media_player.spotify_itskevinbbitch
• media_player.spotify_babe
• media_player.apple_tv_mb
• media_player.music_room
• binary_sensor.bed_pressure_occupied
• binary_sensor.bed_radar_presence
• binary_sensor.motion_sensor
• binary_sensor.music_room_motion
• binary_sensor.contact_sensor_2
• light.bedside
• light.r_vanity
• light.l_vanity
• light.main_light
• light.kitchen_island
• light.kitchen_island_2
• light.sunroom_main

Several automations also reference Home Assistant-generated device_id and opaque entity registry IDs. Those values are instance-specific and may need to be updated if the config is restored into a different HA environment.

MQTT Topics Used

The config defines custom MQTT entities for:

• cameraui/BackCam/motion
• bed/radar/presence
• bed/radar/distance
• bed/pressure/occupied
• bed/pressure/voltage
• bed/pressure/status

Live Instance Inventory

The production Home Assistant configuration root also includes:

• blueprints/automation/homeassistant/motion_light.yaml
• blueprints/automation/homeassistant/notify_leaving_zone.yaml
• blueprints/automation/Raukze/contact-sensor-left-open-notification.yaml
• blueprints/script/homeassistant/confirmable_notification.yaml

Installed custom integrations observed in the live instance:

• hacs (2.0.5)
• qsys_qrc (v0.7.0)
• unraid_api (1.5.1)

Other live-instance files present outside this repo snapshot:

• secrets.yaml
• home-assistant.log
• home-assistant_v2.db
• .storage/

These are intentionally not mirrored fully into this repository because they contain environment-specific runtime state, credentials, registry data, or generated artifacts.

Operational Notes

• scripts.yaml and scenes.yaml are empty in the live instance as of March 31, 2026, so the placeholder files in this repo match production.
• The live instance currently has repeated localhost authentication failures from the Home Assistant iOS app user agent and an Xbox connectivity error in home-assistant.log.
• The mobile app registrations observed in .storage/core.config_entries include Kevin's Phone, Melbourne's iPad, and Melbourne's iPhone.

Notes

• scripts.yaml, scenes.yaml, and themes/ are intentionally included as placeholders so a fresh checkout matches the includes declared in configuration.yaml.
• This repository does not currently include dashboards, packages, secrets, or a full Home Assistant backup.
• Before deploying elsewhere, run a Home Assistant configuration check and verify helper/entity names match the destination instance.
