Scan the Home Assistant error log for recurring automation failures. Surfaces any automation that appears in error-flagged log lines three or more times, which typically indicates a silently broken automation. Runs daily as a scheduled check via reflect-scheduled-checks.

HA Automation Error Review
Purpose
An automation can stop working silently — a renamed entity, a stale trigger, a missing service — and HA logs the error without surfacing it. This skill reads HA's error log, counts occurrences per automation, and flags ones with recurring hits.
Steps
- Run
${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/bin/ha-agent-lab ha automation-errors. - The CLI fetches
/api/error_log, regex-matchesautomation.*references on lines containing error keywords (error,failed,timeout,could not,unable to), counts hits per automation, and flags any with>= 3occurrences. - Artifacts are written to
.claude-code-hermit/raw/audit-ha-automation-errors-*. - Pass the stdout findings block through unchanged.
Output contract
ha-automation-errors findings — YYYY-MM-DD
Automations with recurring errors: N
- automation.<id>: <count> error-pattern hits
If nothing meets the threshold: No actionable findings.
Tuning
- Default threshold is 3 hits in the current error log. Override with
--min-hits Nfor noisier environments. - Detection is keyword-based, not structured. False positives are possible (an automation name contains the word "error"); recurring false positives should be added to an ignore list in a future iteration.
Failure modes
- HA unreachable or
/api/error_logreturns empty →No actionable findings. (0 lines scanned)— not a problem, just means the log rotated or HA has been quiet. - CLI exits non-zero only on connection / auth errors. reflect-scheduled-checks should treat those as "skipped."

On-demand HA-voice brainstorm — reads entity inventory, automation/script listings, and operator intent to surface at most 2 capability-gap ideas, each gated by proposal-triage before becoming a PROP. Invoke when the operator asks "what automations am I missing?", "any coverage gaps?", or "brainstorm improvements". Never runs autonomously.
