Our lead story: yesterday was dominated by a broad reliability cleanup, not new features. The bulk of merged work tightened how integrations handle errors, log failures, and report availability.
First theme is test hardening at scale. Contributor erwindouna landed fourteen batches for config flow error recovery linked to issue 140, for example PR 185460 and PR 185491, plus a related Midea case in PR 185489. In parallel, six batches linked to issue 139 removed duplicate error logs, such as PR 185443 and PR…
Second theme is correct device state. PR 185508 for LG and PR 185530 for Samsung fix infrared climate temperature restoration to use the saved unit. That matters because a temperature saved in Fahrenheit was being restored as if Celsius. Related fixes for Subaru in PR 185503, Tolo in PR 185505, and Motionblinds in…
