hacs.integration_blueprint: Skill for Claude Code

.agents/skills/ha-config-flow/SKILL.md

ha-config-flow is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from jpawlowski/hacs.integration_blueprint. It costs 221 tokens per session (1,750 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A set of rules for building Home Assistant’s setup screens for a device or service integration, including discovery, sign-in again, settings, and upgrades. Home Assistant is software for controlling and monitoring smart-home devices.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when adding setup options, automatic device discovery, reauthentication, reconfiguration, subentries, or migrations between config-entry versions.
Why use it?
It helps prevent setup data, device identities, and saved settings from being structured incorrectly or becoming difficult to change later.

Written for no agent in particular: nothing here depends on one. Also seen: installed under .agents/ (shared by several agents).

This is jpawlowski/hacs.integration_blueprint's own configuration. It tells Claude Code and Codex how to work on hacs.integration_blueprint itself, so it is not a mod to install elsewhere. Copy it as a starting point and replace the rules that are about this project. Everything hacs.integration_blueprint configures →

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

ha-config-flow scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 2mo ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 140 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Work on the config flow

The config flow is the only supported way to configure a device or service integration (ADR-0010). Everything the user can change lives here, and mistakes here are expensive: unique_id and the shape of entry.data are effectively permanent.

Read blueprint.config_flow.instructions.md first. It is the authoritative rule set: data-vs-options, reserved step names, acceptable unique IDs and their normalisation, schema hygiene, title placeholders, and the migration contract. Copilot injects it automatically when you edit a config flow file; other agents must open it. This skill is the order of operations and the decisions; the MUST/NEVER list for each individual flow is in the first reference below.

File When to read
references/flow-types.md Implementing one flow — user, discovery, reauth, reconfigure, options, subentry
references/discovery-matchers.md Writing a manifest.json discovery matcher, or using a discovery helper API
references/oauth2.md The service authenticates with OAuth2 rather than an API key or a password

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
