# Home Assistant integration
RuView publishes its full WiFi-sensing capability set to **Home Assistant** via MQTT auto-discovery (HA-DISCO) and to **any Matter controller** (Apple Home / Google Home / Alexa / SmartThings / HA) via a built-in Matter Bridge (HA-FABRIC). This document is the operator guide for both paths. Design rationale: [ADR-115](../adr/ADR-115-home-assistant-integration.md).
> **Tested against** Home Assistant Core **2025.5**, Mosquitto add-on **6.4**, and Matter (chip-tool) **1.3**. Bump the matrix when you change tested versions.
---
## Quick start
### 1. Prereqs
- A running **MQTT broker** on your LAN. The easiest path is the [Mosquitto add-on](https://github.com/home-assistant/addons/tree/master/mosquitto) inside Home Assistant OS (one click from the Add-on Store). EMQX and VerneMQ also work — see §Advanced brokers below.
- Home Assistant **2025.5 or newer** with the MQTT integration enabled and pointed at your broker.
- A RuView **`wifi-densepose-sensing-server`** v0.7.0+ binary (or `cargo run` from source).
### 2. Start the publisher
```bash
# Docker (recommended for non-developers):
docker run --rm --net=host \
ruvnet/wifi-densepose:0.7.0 \
--source esp32 \
--mqtt --mqtt-host 192.168.1.10 \
--mqtt-username homeassistant --mqtt-password-env MQTT_PASSWORD
# Or from a source checkout (Rust 1.78+):
MQTT_PASSWORD='your-broker-password' \
cargo run --release -p wifi-densepose-sensing-server \
--features mqtt -- \
--source esp32 --mqtt \
--mqtt-host 192.168.1.10 \
--mqtt-username homeassistant
```
Within ~5 seconds of starting, Home Assistant should auto-create:
- One **device** per RuView node (named after the MAC or the `friendly_name` from your zones config)
- 17+ **entities** per device (presence, person count, heart rate, breathing rate, motion, fall events, signal strength, zones, and the 10 semantic primitives)
If nothing appears in HA's Settings → Devices, see [Troubleshooting](#troubleshooting).
### 3. Stop the publisher cleanly
Ctrl-C — the publisher pushes `offline` to every availability topic before disconnect so HA marks all entities unavailable instantly. A `kill -9` triggers MQTT LWT, which has the same effect within ~30 s.
---
## Entity reference
RuView publishes three classes of entity. Names below are the `unique_id` slugs — Home Assistant assigns friendly names automatically.
### Raw signals (11 entities)
| HA entity | Slug | HA component | Unit | Source field |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Presence | `presence` | `binary_sensor` | — | `edge_vitals.presence` |
| Person count | `person_count` | `sensor` | persons | `edge_vitals.n_persons` |
| Heart rate | `heart_rate` | `sensor` | bpm | `edge_vitals.heartrate_bpm` |
| Breathing rate | `breathing_rate` | `sensor` | bpm | `edge_vitals.breathing_rate_bpm` |
| Motion level | `motion_level` | `sensor` | % | `edge_vitals.motion` × 100 |
| Motion energy | `motion_energy` | `sensor` | (dimensionless) | `edge_vitals.motion_energy` |
| Fall detected | `fall` | `event` | — | `edge_vitals.fall_detected` |
| Presence score | `presence_score` | `sensor` | % | `edge_vitals.presence_score` × 100 |
| Signal strength | `rssi` | `sensor` | dBm | `edge_vitals.rssi` |
| Zone occupancy | `zone_occupancy` | `binary_sensor` | — | `sensing_update.zones` |
| Pose keypoints | `pose` | `sensor` (attrs) | — | `pose_data.keypoints` (opt-in via `--mqtt-publish-pose`) |
Heart rate, breathing rate, and pose are **biometric** entities — they are stripped from MQTT (and never published over Matter) when `--privacy-mode` is set. See [Privacy](#privacy) below.
### Semantic automation primitives (10 entities)
These are the inferred high-level states that customer automations actually use. Each one is a small finite-state machine running server-side with explicit warmup, hysteresis, and refractory windows. Per-primitive precision/recall is published in [`semantic-primitives-metrics.md`](./semantic-primitives-metrics.md).
| HA entity | Slug | HA component | What it fires on |
|---|---|---|---|
| Someone sleeping | `someone_sleeping` | `binary_sensor` | presence + motion<5% + BR [8,20] bpm sustained for 5 min |
| Possible distress | `possible_distress` | `binary_sensor` | HR > 1.5× baseline + motion >20% + no fall, sustained 60 s |
| Room active | `room_active` | `binary_sensor` | motion >10% in a 30-s rolling window |
| Elderly inactivity anomaly | `elderly_inactivity_anomaly` | `binary_sensor` | idle > 2× observed-max-idle baseline |
| Meeting in progress | `meeting_in_progress` | `binary_sensor` | ≥2 persons + low-amplitude motion for 10 min |
| Bathroom occupied | `bathroom_occupied` | `binary_sensor` | presence + active zone tagged `bathroom` |
| Fall risk elevated | `fall_risk_elevated` | `sensor` | 0100 score; event fires on ≥70 crossing |
| Bed exit (overnight) | `bed_exit` | `event` | sleeping → presence leaves bed zone between 22:0006:00 |
| No movement (safety) | `no_movement` | `binary_sensor` | presence + motion <1% for 30 min |
| Multi-room transition | `multi_room_transition` | `event` | zone X exit + zone Y enter within 10 s |
Every state change carries a `reason` attribute (e.g. `["motion<5%", "br=12bpm", "presence=true"]`) so you can template against it in HA automations to understand why an automation triggered.
### Matter device-type mapping
Per ADR-115 §3.11.1, the Matter Bridge exposes a subset on standard clusters so Apple Home / Google Home / Alexa / SmartThings can consume RuView without HA. Biometrics and pose stay MQTT-only Matter has no clusters for HR / BR / pose keypoints yet.
| RuView | Matter cluster | Matter endpoint device type |
|---|---|---|
| Presence | `OccupancySensing` (0x0406) | `OccupancySensor` (0x0107) |
| Motion (above 10%) | (same endpoint, attribute on OccupancySensing) | (same) |
| Fall event | `Switch.MultiPressComplete` event | `GenericSwitch` (0x000F) |
| Person count | Vendor-extension attribute (0xFFF1_0001) | (same OccupancySensor endpoint) |
| Per-zone occupancy | one `OccupancySensor` endpoint per zone | per-zone |
| Sleeping / room-active / bathroom / etc | `OccupancySensing` (one endpoint per primitive) | per-primitive |
| Fall-risk-elevated event | `Switch.MultiPressComplete` event | `GenericSwitch` |
| HR / BR / pose | **not exposed** MQTT only | |

## Privacy
When deploying in **healthcare**, **AAL (aging-in-place)**, or **commercial** settings, set `--privacy-mode`. This:
- **Strips** heart rate, breathing rate, and pose keypoints from every outbound MQTT publication.
- **Suppresses discovery** for those entities entirely HA never even sees they exist.
- **Keeps every semantic primitive enabled.** Sleeping / distress / room-active / etc are *inferred* states. The inference happens server-side and only the boolean or score crosses the wire. This is the architectural win that makes the platform deployable in regulated contexts.
Always pair `--privacy-mode` with `--mqtt-tls` on non-localhost brokers.

## Advanced brokers
Mosquitto is the recommended default. The integration also works with:
- **EMQX** (https://www.emqx.io/) clustering, MQTT 5.0, dashboard UI. Good for 10 RuView nodes.
- **VerneMQ** (https://vernemq.com/) Erlang-based, multi-protocol bridges (AMQP, WebSocket).
- **HiveMQ Edge** (https://www.hivemq.com/edge/) managed cloud relay if you need off-LAN access.
All three accept the same HA discovery topics RuView publishes. Performance and discovery semantics are identical.
---
## Troubleshooting
### No entities appear in HA
1. Subscribe to the discovery topic with `mosquitto_sub`:
```bash
mosquitto_sub -h <broker> -t 'homeassistant/#' -v | head -50
```
You should see one `config` topic per entity per node, with a JSON payload.
2. If `mosquitto_sub` shows nothing, RuView is not reaching the broker. Check `--mqtt-host`, network reachability, and credentials.
3. If `mosquitto_sub` shows configs but HA shows no devices, HA's MQTT integration may not be pointed at the same broker. Verify under Settings → Devices & Services → MQTT.
### Entities appear but state never updates
1. Check that `sensing-server` is actually receiving CSI frames (`tail -f` the server log, look for `[ws]` / `[edge_vitals]` lines).
2. Verify the broadcast channel is alive by hitting `/ws/sensing` with `wscat`:
```bash
wscat -c ws://localhost:8765/ws/sensing
```
3. Confirm rate limits aren't dropping everything: `--mqtt-rate-vitals 1.0` for diagnosis (default 0.2 Hz = every 5 s).
### "Plaintext MQTT on non-localhost broker" WARN
Per [ADR-115 §3.9](../adr/ADR-115-home-assistant-integration.md#39-tls--auth), v0.7.0 warns and continues; v0.8.0 will hard-fail. Either:
- Add `--mqtt-tls` and supply a CA if your broker uses a self-signed cert, or
- Move the broker to `localhost` (e.g. run Mosquitto inside the same host as `sensing-server`).
### Matter pairing fails
1. Check the setup code in your `--matter-setup-file` log (defaults to printing on startup).
2. Make sure the host running `sensing-server` is on the same WiFi subnet as the controller.
3. If Apple Home complains about an unknown vendor, that's expected — RuView uses dev VID `0xFFF1` until P10 (see [ADR §9.9](../adr/ADR-115-home-assistant-integration.md#9b-matter-path-p7p10)). Tap "Add anyway".
