What is energy-dashboard?

A tool for configuring Home Assistant’s Energy Dashboard, which tracks household energy such as solar power, grid flow, and battery activity.

Use it to read or set the dashboard’s solar, grid import and export, and battery charge and discharge sources.

The needed dashboard settings are available through Home Assistant’s WebSocket interface rather than its regular REST interface.

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.

Model	Per session	Once invoked
Fable 5.1	$0.00191	$0.01306
Opus 5.5	$0.00076	$0.00522
Sonnet 5.5	$0.00038	$0.00261
Haiku 4.5	$0.00019	$0.00131

Security

Grade A, and why

energy-dashboard 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.

energy-dashboard

Configure the Home Assistant Energy Dashboard automatically. The dashboard's preferences sit behind HA's WebSocket API (energy/get_prefs / energy/save_prefs) — the REST API does not expose them — so this is a pure-Python-3 stdlib tool with a minimal built-in WebSocket client (no websockets dependency). Two commands: show (read the current sources) and set (write sources built from flags). Credentials come from a Bitwarden item at runtime, never hardcoded; source entities are always parameters, so nothing is pinned to one house.

Setup (once)

In Home Assistant: create a long-lived access token (Profile → Security → Long-lived access tokens). That token is HA_TOKEN.
Non-secret config: set HA_URL (e.g. http://<host>:8123) in the axon-overlay overlay's config/home-assistant.vars (resolved via $AXON_HOME_ROOT). The WebSocket endpoint is derived from it (http→ws, https→wss, /api/websocket).
In Bitwarden: item home-assistant/ha (override with $HA_BW_ITEM) holding only the secret custom field HA_TOKEN — the same item the ha-cli skill uses. Provision via Axon setup-secret.sh.
Point bw at the vault once: bw config server <vault-url>.

Run

Unlock Bitwarden interactively, then call (the tool reads $BW_SESSION, never the master password):

export BW_SESSION=$(bw unlock --raw)

# Read the current sources
scripts/energy-dashboard show
scripts/energy-dashboard show -j            # raw prefs JSON

# Configure sources (each source is added only if its entity is given)
scripts/energy-dashboard set \
  --solar-production sensor.solar_lifetime_energy \
  --solar-power      sensor.solar_power \
  --grid-import      sensor.grid_import_energy \
  --grid-export      sensor.grid_export_energy \
  --battery-from     sensor.battery_discharge_energy \
  --battery-to       sensor.battery_charge_energy

# Advanced: supply the whole energy_sources array as raw JSON
scripts/energy-dashboard set --sources-file ./sources.json

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.
