v2.5.0
Smart Entity Selectors
Entity dropdowns in the visual editor now filter by device class — CO2 fields only show CO2 sensors, temperature fields only show temperature sensors, etc. No more scrolling through hundreds of irrelevant entities.
Filtered device classes:
- CO₂ →
carbon_dioxide - PM2.5 →
pm25 - Humidity →
humidity - Temperature →
temperature - tVOC →
volatile_organic_compounds - HCHO → all sensors (no standard device class)
Built-in Recommendations
The recommendation_entity config option has been removed. Recommendations are now fully built-in and automatic — no external template sensor needed. The card evaluates all your configured sensors and generates context-aware advice.
New in the recommendation logic:
- HCHO > 100 ppb → "Ventilate — Formaldehyde"
- tVOC > 500 ppb → "Ventilate — VOCs Elevated"
- All ventilation recommendations are suppressed when outdoor air is worse
Breaking Change
If you were using recommendation_entity, that config key is now ignored. The built-in recommendations cover all the same cases (and more) automatically.
