Shutting your computer down through HA.

I have added the Shutdown command to HASS Agent and my Home Assistant sees the button of the shutdown, but for some reason I am unable to shut my computer down through Google Home. I have WOL enabled and I am able to start my computer through Google Home and HA. Its a WOL Switch with the name of my Desktop.

Solution:

```yaml - platform: wake_on_lan mac: mac_address host: ip name: "My PC Power"...

PC doesn't get discovered in HA but MQTT picks it up + no notify.your-pc service

Posting these as one support thread in case they're related. I'm not getting a HASS.Agent integration pop up with the device discovered, but it still appears under my list of devices for MQTT. I've added the github repo for media/notfications. I'm picking up the sensors I want and I can send the test notification from the App (except GPU Temps which says Unavailable) but there's no notify service....

Solution:

Ok, so apparently I restarted HA at various times, but it looks like I DID NOT reboot after updating the clients in question to the very latest 2.1.0. I definitely did not do anything with the integration side of it - I simply installed the update on the clients having the problem, and when I restarted HA a few hours later for a different purpose, I went to the integrations page and all 3x of the clients previously working with sensors, commands, etc. through MQTT, but there was no notify, nor...

No services using HASS.Agent auto-discovery

I did manage to install HASS.Agent in my PC using MQTT. Also installed all HASS.Agents addons via HACS and it does manage to auto-discover my PC. The problem is that the device found has no entity/service. Any hint?...

Notification Documentation Link

The Notification Documentation Link in the Configuration UI goes to https://www.hass-agent.io/latest/setup/notifications/ which is giving a 404 error. This is just FYI.... should this have been a github issue? 😄...

Solution:

look if im being honest i was supposed to have finished the setup by now but its mind numbingly boring. So it doesnt exist, however there is a working guide in getting started so i think we'll just swap that in the app

HASSAgent.sys Malware Detected - False Positive, I know.

My work laptop picks up HASSAgent.sys is flagged as malware due to file reputation according to our company malware software. I saw the GitHub where this likely outdated information, but I'm limited in what I can do on my end to resolve this. What functionality is tied to HASSAgent.sys? It seems MQTT still works for the one sensor I'm testing with -- My use case on this computer is Microphone Detection; which appears to be working with the .sys file deleted/quarantined.
Second question, is there a way that I can get the application to stop creating the .sys file on ever restart? Depending on the answers to the first question, a limited functionality may be okay for my work PC, but I'd like to stop generating the quarantine reports before someone from our TOC starts asking questions....

Solution:

since it's "baked in" to the build I don't think there is a way to stop it from generating it

Cannot get HASS/integration working

Long time user... first time complainer. 😛 Brand new computer. Installed the agent on windows using https://github.com/hass-agent/HASS.Agent/releases/latest/download/HASS.Agent.Installer.exe Added the custom repo to HACS (this one right?)...

Solution:

I've got things working too. The point for me was that in core.config_entries file there was a persistant hass_agent entry. Even when I deleted the integration, it stayed there. This entry was a wrongly used name by myself (i'd like to add -hassagent to the identifier). After removing manually, it is gone. Thanks for your support!

last_active is constantly changing but there is no mouse movement

Any clues? I used to use this sensor as a timeout for shutting down the PC. I checked and Move Mouse isn't running, or anything else like that AFAICT. Is there better sensor to use for this purpose?

Solution:

this has stabilized btw - haven't had the issue since i updated Win 11 on her machine and did 1-2 reboots

Only media player discovered

Hi! I'm quite new to using HASS.Agent, and have run into some problems when setting it up. I originally installed the "old" (not forked) version, but only one device with no entities was discovered. I therefore tried to download the forked version, with the new HASS.Agent 2 integration. I removed all integrations and programs beforehand, but still only one device discovered. This was now the media player, which works as expected. I am still missing the main device with all the sensors. I'm not sure which details I need to add for you guys to help me out, but I'm hoping there is an easy fix to the problem 🙂...

Solution:

Sensors/commands show under the MQTT integration

Is it possible to turn on a tablet screen?

I have a Surface setup to never go into deep sleep. With IOTLink I was able to wake the screen with an automation. Is that possible?

Solution:

There is a command that simulates a keypress that should wake the screen (assuming the device is really not sleeping - including s0ix sleep aka modern sleep)

Setting Up Notifications

I am attempting to implement a solution to allow home assistant to send my windows PC notifications, I have installed HASS.agent client on my computer and have enabled the local API on port 5115, when I navigate to my internal IP & port I get 'HASS.Agent Active' however when I enter my hostname (internal ip) within home assistant it immediately says 'failed to connect'. I only mention it's immediate because when I specify an incorrect port/ip combination it takes some time before failing to conn...

Solution:

is the local api an only option (asking about mqtt)?

Platform mqtt does not generate unique IDs upon updating to beta2

Hey, thanks for the awesome update! Just updated to beta2 from beta1. I simply ran the installer and followed the prompts and chose migratation. If came back fine, except 2 of my sensors command config sensors came back to HA with the does not generate unique IDs. ...

Solution:

here's what I did. I ended up deleting it in Hass.Agent configuration, then in MQTT explorer on HA side. Remade the sensors and they are now working without errors. Maybe justa glitch somewhere.

Use for a HTPC

Trying to see if I can use this program to have home assistant trigger specific programs to start/stop on my pc. So far I’ve not seen it actually stated if it’ll work or not. Has anyone used this in that manner.

Solution:

So just open and close programs? Definitely doable

Removing old duplicated entities.

Hello ! I installed the old HassAgent, having only played with sensor and commands, but then migrated to V2. Used the compat script in #entity-names , but I still have duplicated entities in my MQTT integration. I Decided to go back from scratch, and indeed the new entities has been deleted, but I can't remove the old ones (the underdogunderdog* ones), because "Entities can only be removed when the integration is no longer providing the entities". And in truth, I see the sensor being active, but with unknown status....

Solution:

Resolved by going into MQTT explorer and clearing leftover topics from pre-migration.
