Previously, when no watch_domains or watch_entities were configured,
ALL state_changed events passed through to the agent, causing users
to be flooded with notifications for every HA entity change.
Now events are dropped by default unless the user explicitly configures:
- watch_domains: list of domains to monitor (e.g. climate, light)
- watch_entities: list of specific entity IDs to monitor
- watch_all: true (new option — opt-in to receive all events)
A warning is logged at connect time if no filters are configured,
guiding users to set up their HA platform config.
All 49 gateway HA tests + 52 HA tool tests pass.
Improvements to the HA integration merged from PR #184:
- Add ha_list_services tool: discovers available services (actions) per
domain with descriptions and parameter fields. Tells the model what
it can do with each device type (e.g. light.turn_on accepts brightness,
color_name, transition). Closes the gap where the model had to guess
available actions.
- Add HA to hermes tools config: users can enable/disable the homeassistant
toolset and configure HASS_TOKEN + HASS_URL through 'hermes tools' setup
flow instead of manually editing .env.
- Fix should-fix items from code review:
- Remove sys.path.insert hack from gateway adapter
- Replace all print() calls with proper logger (info/warning/error)
- Move env var reads from import-time to handler-time via _get_config()
- Add dedicated REST session reuse in gateway send()
- Update ha_call_service description to reference ha_list_services for
action discovery.
- Update tests for new ha_list_services tool in toolset resolution.
- Add ha_list_entities, ha_get_state, ha_call_service tools via REST API
- Add WebSocket gateway adapter for real-time state_changed event monitoring
- Support domain/entity filtering, cooldown, and auto-reconnect with backoff
- Use REST API for outbound notifications to avoid WS race condition
- Gate tool availability on HASS_TOKEN env var
- Add 82 unit tests covering real logic (filtering, payload building, event pipeline)
