It provides: + +- **Listener pattern** — subscribes to homecore event bus and captures all `StateChanged` events +- **SQLite schema** — mirrors HA's `recorder` database schema (v48) for 1:1 compatibility +- **Dual-write architecture** — writes state snapshots to `states` table and attributes to `state_attributes` table (same as HA) +- **Deduplication** — avoids recording redundant state writes when state hasn't actually changed +- **SemanticIndex trait** — abstraction for plugging in ruvector embeddings (P2) +- **NullSemanticIndex** — no-op implementation used when `ruvector` feature is off + +Data persists in `.homecore/home.db` (by default; configurable). Queries work via standard SQLx, so any tool that reads SQLite can access the history. + +## Features + +- **Home Assistant schema compatibility** — migrate from HA's `recorder.db` without schema changes +- **Event recording** — all state changes captured with `last_changed` timestamp and old/new state +- **Attribute persistence** — JSON attributes for entities stored in separate table (HA pattern) +- **Automatic deduplication** — skip writes when state hasn't changed (detect via hash) +- **Recorder runs table** — track purge cycles and migration events (HA `recorder_runs` equivalent) +- **Semantic search** (P2, `--features ruvector`) — embed state attributes + query by meaning +- **HNSW index** (P2) — k-NN search for "all warm rooms" via ruvector +- **No data export overhead** — SQLite is queryable directly; no proprietary format + +## Capabilities + +| Capability | Type | Method | Notes | +|------------|------|--------|-------| +| Record state change | Listener | `RecorderListener::on_state_changed(event)` | Fires on homecore event bus; writes to SQLite | +| Query state history | SQL | `SELECT * FROM states WHERE entity_id = ?
