Deployment Tips

Home Assistant skills require a running HA instance:\n\n- **Local deployment** is the most common setup — skill runs alongside HA\n- **Container deployment** works great in Docker-based HA installations\n- **Network requirements** — skill must reach HA API (usually port 8123)\n\nGenerate a long-lived access token in HA settings before installing.

Common Pitfalls

Common Home Assistant integration issues:\n\n- **Connection refused** — Check HA URL and port configuration\n- **Authentication failed** — Regenerate the long-lived access token\n- **Entity not found** — Verify entity IDs in HA developer tools\n- **Automation not triggering** — Check HA automation logs, not just skill logs
