Major restructuring of the scripts/ directory with consistent output
formatting, improved organization, and stricter error handling.
Breaking Changes:
- Updated development environment to Home Assistant 2025.7+
- Removed Python 3.12 compatibility (HA 2025.7+ requires Python 3.13)
- Updated all HA core requirements from 2025.7 requirement files
- Added new dependencies: python-multipart, uv (for faster package management)
- Updated GitHub Actions workflows to use Python 3.13
Changes:
- Created centralized output library (scripts/.lib/output.sh)
- Unified color codes and Unicode symbols
- Consistent formatting functions (log_header, log_success, log_error, etc.)
- Support for embedded formatting codes (${BOLD}, ${GREEN}, etc.)
- Reorganized into logical subdirectories:
- scripts/setup/ - Setup and maintenance scripts
- bootstrap: Install/update dependencies (used in CI/CD)
- setup: Full DevContainer setup (pyright, copilot, HACS)
- reset: Reset config/ directory to fresh state (NEW)
- sync-hacs: Sync HACS integrations
- scripts/release/ - Release management scripts
- prepare: Version bump and tagging
- suggest-version: Semantic version suggestion
- generate-notes: Release notes generation
- check-if-released: Check release status
- hassfest: Local integration validation
- Updated all scripts with:
- set -euo pipefail for stricter error handling
- Consistent SCRIPT_DIR pattern for reliable sourcing
- Professional output with colors and emojis
- Unified styling across all 17 scripts
- Removed redundant scripts:
- scripts/update (was just wrapper around bootstrap)
- scripts/json_schemas/ (moved to schemas/json/)
- Enhanced clean script:
- Improved artifact cleanup
- Better handling of accidental package installations
- Hints for reset and deep clean options
- New reset script features:
- Standard mode: Keep configuration.yaml
- Full mode (--full): Reset configuration.yaml from git
- Automatic re-setup after reset
- Updated documentation:
- AGENTS.md: Updated script references and workflow guidance
- docs/development/: Updated all references to new script structure
Impact: Development environment now requires Python 3.13 and Home Assistant
2025.7+. Developers get consistent, professional script output with better
error handling and logical organization. Single source of truth for styling
makes future updates trivial.
Created professional documentation structure:
**User Documentation (docs/user/):**
- README.md: Documentation hub with quick start guide
- Placeholder files for future content migration:
* installation.md, configuration.md, sensors.md
* services.md, automation-examples.md, troubleshooting.md
**Developer Documentation (docs/development/):**
- README.md: Comprehensive contributor guide with AI section
- setup.md: DevContainer and environment setup
- architecture.md: Code structure overview
- testing.md: Testing guidelines
- coding-guidelines.md: Style guide and critical patterns
- release-management.md: Complete release workflow documentation
**AI Development Disclosure:**
- README.md: "🤖 Development Note" section before license
* Honest disclosure about extensive AI assistance
* Quality assurance measures mentioned
* Invitation for bug reports with positive tone
- docs/development/README.md: Detailed AI section
* What AI handles (patterns, generation, refactoring)
* Benefits (rapid development, consistency)
* Limitations (edge cases, complex patterns)
* Quality assurance process
- CONTRIBUTING.md: Brief AI note with practical tip
**Updated:**
- README.md: Simplified to landing page with documentation links
- CONTRIBUTING.md: Modernized with new docs structure
- copilot-instructions.md: Added documentation organization section
Impact: Clear separation of user vs. developer documentation following
open-source best practices. Transparent about AI-assisted development
approach without being defensive. Scalable structure for future growth.
