claude-ha is now listed in the HACS default store, so installing no longer requires adding a custom repository.

Changed

  • Installing no longer needs a custom repository. The documented install path is now the Open in HACS button, or a search for claude-ha — searching Claude alone turns up several similarly-named integrations (Claude Chat, Claude Pulse, Claude Usage). A freshly listed repository takes a few hours to reach every HACS install; until it does, the button still works, and adding LayerTM/claude-ha as a custom repository remains documented as a last resort.
  • The README now states the Home Assistant OS / Supervised requirement up front, and spells out that the companion add-on still has to be added to the add-on store by repository URL.

Existing installs are unaffected — no functional change. This release exists so the corrected instructions actually reach users: HACS renders a repository's info page from its latest release tag, never from the default branch.
