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.
