The lead pattern today is correctness at the edges: devices reporting slightly wrong state, sensors updating too often, and setup running when it shouldn't.

First, state handling and lifecycle cleanup. A fix for Shelly RPC covers in PR 191287 treats position zero as closed when some firmware never sends a closed state, which matters for automations and cover history. Related, PR 191333 quiets noisy uptime reporting in Pterodactyl by tolerating clock jitter instead of…

Second, routine dependency maintenance. About ten updates landed, including Airzone and Airzone Cloud, Roborock, Switcher, Mitsubishi Comfort, and Plex, among others. Most are patch-level library bumps to pull in upstream bug fixes, so release risk is low but developers should still expect updated behavior from…

Third, device expansion and observability. Tuya air conditioners gain eco mode and sleep switches in PR 191169. Vitesy adds Natede and Eteria air quality sensors in PR 191037, alongside new diagnostics for Vitesy and for Holiday in PR 191325, plus translation fixes for setup errors and update failures. The takeaway…
