home-assistant-configuration

home-assistant-configuration is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from magnusoverli/opencode. It costs 84 tokens per session (2,723 once invoked), scanned A, original, Unlicense.

A guide for editing Home Assistant configuration written in YAML, a text format commonly used for settings. Home Assistant is software for controlling smart-home devices and automations.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to create or modify automations, scripts, scenes, templates, integrations, packages, helpers, and other Home Assistant YAML configuration.
Why use it?
It reduces errors caused by changed integration syntax, deprecated settings, or unsafe full-file replacements. It also requires checking the running Home Assistant version and making backups before changes.

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

home-assistant-configuration 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 1mo 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 — 225 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Home Assistant configuration work

The consent rules in AGENTS.md apply to everything here: show the change, wait for explicit approval, change nothing else.

Before you write anything

Home Assistant ships a release every month, with new options, deprecations and breaking changes. Training data goes stale fast, so verify syntax against the running version rather than recalling it.

  1. get_config — which Home Assistant version is this?
  2. get_integration_docs("<integration>") — current YAML syntax and examples.
  3. get_breaking_changes — when something stopped working after an update.
  4. Read the existing file in full. Every write replaces the whole file.

Frequently-changed areas worth double-checking:

  • Template sensors: platform: template under sensor: is deprecated — use the top-level template: key.
  • MQTT: platform: mqtt under a domain key is deprecated — use top-level mqtt:.
  • Service targeting: entity_id at action level or inside data: is deprecated — use target:.
  • Direct state access: states.sensor.x.state is fragile — use states('sensor.x').
  • Many integrations moved from YAML to UI-only configuration.

Writing safely

write_config_safe is the sanctioned write path. It validates, backs up, blocks writes that would drop list entries or top-level keys or shrink a file suspiciously, and restores on failure.

1. get_config()                                -> installed version
2. get_integration_docs("template")            -> current syntax
3. read the existing file                      -> ALL of it
4. draft: existing content + your change
5. write_config_safe(path, yaml, dry_run=true) -> pre-validate
6. fix and repeat 5 until clean
7. show the user, wait for approval
8. write_config_safe(path, yaml)               -> write for real

Never write partial content to a config file. Read first, include everything that was already there. write_config_safe blocks the worst cases, but the draft you show the user must already be complete.

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.
