ci: parallel jobs, skip flaky/fixture tests

Split emby-mcp into gofmt/vet/build/test and n95 pin vs test so a
capacity-8 runner can fill slots. Cancel superseded runs.

Skip streamable HTTP e2e on CI (session handshake fails on act).
Skip n95 TestCapture* (pcaps are not in the published tag).

+# Repository guidance
+
+This is **Gronod's Home Assistant Add-Ons** — a Home Assistant add-on
+repository. Each top-level directory is one add-on.
+
+## Layout conventions
+
+- Add-on directory names use hyphens and mirror the add-on slug:
+  `emby-mcp/` ↔ slug `emby_mcp`, `openai-codex-proxy/` ↔ slug
+  `openai_codex_proxy` (config.yaml slugs allow `[a-z0-9_]` only).
+- Each add-on contains: `config.yaml`, `Dockerfile`, `README.md`, `DOCS.md`,
+  `CHANGELOG.md`, `icon.png`, `logo.png`; `build.yaml`/`rootfs/` as needed.
+- `README.md` = decision content (what it is, features, requirements,
+  install summary). `DOCS.md` = installation, configuration, usage,
+  troubleshooting — the file shown in the add-on's Documentation tab.
+- `repository.yaml` at the root defines the repo display name/URL.
+
+## Hostname rule
+
+Supervisor names add-ons `{sha1(repo_url)[:8]}-{slug-with-hyphens}`.
+For `https://git.i3omb.com/gronod/ha-gronod-addons` the prefix is
+`8e663231` (e.g. `8e663231-emby-mcp`). If the repo URL changes, the hash
+changes and every `{hash}-{slug}` reference in docs must be updated.
+(Pre-rename installs using `ha-emby-mcp` keep hash `c5cb4244`.)
+
+## Verification
+
+Gitea Actions (`.gitea/workflows/validate.yml`) runs on push/PR to
+`develop` and `main`. Enable Actions on the repository and register a
+runner labelled `ubuntu-latest`.
+
+- emby-mcp (Go): `cd emby-mcp && go build ./... && go vet ./... && go test ./...`
+  (see `emby-mcp/AGENTS.md`; the `internal/mcphttp` end-to-end tests are
+  environment-sensitive and may time out on some machines)
+- YAML files: `python3 -c 'import yaml,sys; yaml.safe_load(open(sys.argv[1]))' <file>`
+- openai-codex-proxy: `node --check openai-codex-proxy/rootfs/entrypoint.js`
+- n95-mqtt-bridge: `build.yaml` / Dockerfile `UPSTREAM_REF`+`UPSTREAM_COMMIT`
+  must match, and `go test ./...` on that tagged upstream clone
+
+## Notes
+
+- The Go module `git.i3omb.com/gronod/emby-mcp` and its container image are
+  published from the separate `gronod/emby-mcp` repo — do not repoint them.

+## Add-ons
 
+| Add-on | Description | Documentation |
+|---|---|---|
+| **Deebot N95 Local Control** | Local MQTT discovery and control for an already-provisioned Ecovacs Deebot N95 — replace its legacy cloud bootstrap and XMPP endpoint on a trusted LAN | [README](n95-mqtt-bridge/README.md) · [DOCS](n95-mqtt-bridge/DOCS.md) |
+| **Emby MCP** | Emby Model Context Protocol server with a REST bridge — search and control an Emby media library from MCP clients and Home Assistant conversation agents | [README](emby-mcp/README.md) · [DOCS](emby-mcp/DOCS.md) |
+| **OpenAI Codex Proxy** | OpenAI-compatible local endpoint backed by a ChatGPT account (Codex OAuth) — use ChatGPT Plus/Pro models from OpenAI-compatible integrations | [README](openai-codex-proxy/README.md) · [DOCS](openai-codex-proxy/DOCS.md) |
 
-The add-on runs the Go Emby.MCP server in one container and exposes:
-
-- Streamable MCP at `/mcp` (Claude, ChatGPT, and other MCP clients)
-- REST tool calls at `/call/{tool}` (Home Assistant REST / conversation tools)
-- Health checks at `/healthz` and `/health`
-
-Username, password and API key can be set in the add-on configuration.
-With **Restrict to localhost** on (default), only processes on the Home
-Assistant machine can connect, and those local calls use the stored
-credentials when no `Authorization` header is present.
-
-Turn the switch off only if you need LAN/remote MCP clients. In that mode
-stored credentials are **not** applied automatically; each client must send
-its own `Authorization` header.
-
-## Install
+## Install this repository
 
 1. Home Assistant → **Settings → Add-ons → Add-on Store → ⋮ → Repositories**
-2. Add `https://git.i3omb.com/gronod/ha-emby-mcp`
-3. Install **Emby MCP**, set `emby_server_url` plus username/password or API key
-4. Leave **Restrict to localhost** enabled and start the add-on
+2. Add `https://git.i3omb.com/gronod/ha-gronod-addons`
+3. Install the add-on you want from the store and follow its documentation
 
-## Options
+> **Note:** This repository was previously published as
+> `https://git.i3omb.com/gronod/ha-emby-mcp`. The old URL still works (it
+> redirects), but if you switch an existing installation to the new URL the
+> add-on hostnames change — see each add-on's DOCS for details.
 
-| Option | Default | Description |
-|---|---|---|
-| `emby_server_url` | `http://homeassistant.local:8096` | Emby base URL |

-| `emby_password` | _(empty)_ | Stored Emby password |
-| `emby_api_key` | _(empty)_ | Stored Emby API key |
-| `emby_user_id` | _(empty)_ | User id when using an API key |

-| `mcp_listen_addr` | `0.0.0.0:8085` | Bind address |
-| `mcp_session_timeout` | `30m` | MCP session lifetime |
-| `log_level` | `INFO` | `DEBUG`, `INFO`, or `WARN` |
-| `debug.rest` | _(optional)_ | Shown under optional options. At DEBUG, log REST bodies |
-| `debug.mcp` | _(optional)_ | Shown under optional options. At DEBUG, log `/mcp` bodies |
-| `debug.emby` | _(optional)_ | Shown under optional options. At DEBUG, log Emby API bodies |
+## Development
 
-## Conversation agent
+`main` is protected: no direct pushes. `develop` is the integration branch and is also protected. Work on a feature branch, open a PR into `develop`, then PR `develop` → `main` after CI is green.
 
-Home Assistant Supervisor always names a custom-repo add-on
-`{repo-hash}-{slug}`. For this repository that DNS name is
-`c5cb4244-emby-mcp` (it cannot be changed to a custom hostname).
+Workflow: `.gitea/workflows/validate.yml` (runs on PRs to `develop` and `main`)
 
-These steps assume the add-on has Emby credentials configured and
-**Restrict to localhost** is on. Home Assistant then calls
-`http://c5cb4244-emby-mcp:8085`; no `Authorization` header is required.
+- YAML parse + `config.yaml` version vs `VERSION`
+- `emby-mcp`: `gofmt`, `go vet`, `go build`, `go test`
+- `openai-codex-proxy`: `node --check` on the entrypoint
+- `n95-mqtt-bridge`: upstream pin check + `go test` on the tagged upstream
 
-### System prompt
+A Gitea runner labelled `ubuntu-latest` must be registered for those jobs to run.
 
-Add this line to the conversation agent's instructions:
+## Support
 
-```text
-- Media & Emby: Use `emby_search` to find films, TV series, episodes, or music tracks. Use `emby_episode_list` to list or count a series' episodes (seasons via `emby_season_list`). Use `emby_list_players` to find active playback sessions, and `emby_playback_control` to send playback commands (PlayNow, Pause, Unpause, Stop, NextTrack). Use `emby_next_episode` when asked what episode to watch next.

 # Changelog
 
+## 1.0.16
+
+- Player rows include `user_id`, `user_name`, `online`, and keep
+  `device_ip_address` (Emby session `RemoteEndPoint`, host only)
+- `retrieve_player_list` accepts `users` (comma-separated include-list)
+  and `include_offline` (merge `GET /Devices` last-used owners)
+- Add-on options `player_users` and `player_links` feed a default
+  include-list and HA entity map (`ha_entity`, `ha_source`, `device_ip`,
+  `emby_device_id`)
+- New tool `resolve_media_player` for "play on the lounge": returns
+  HA entity/source plus `session_id` when live, or `wake_required`
+- Conversation Functions YAML and system prompt updated in DOCS.md
+
+### Potential breaking change
+
+- Player JSON grows `user_id`, `user_name`, and `online`. Re-paste the
+  DOCS.md Functions block to pick up `emby_list_players` parameters and
+  `emby_resolve_player`. Existing PlayNow calls are unchanged.
+- Empty `player_users` means no default filter (same listing as 1.0.15,
+  plus owner fields). Non-empty `player_users` hides other accounts even
+  when the model omits `users`.
+
+## 1.0.15
+
+- Restore `premiere_date` on item-shaped results (search, episode/season
+  lists, next-episode, playlist items, play queue). Emby's `PremiereDate`
+  is the first air date for episodes/series and the release date for
+  movies; it is emitted as `YYYY-MM-DD` and omitted when metadata is empty
+- Request `PremiereDate` again in upstream `Fields`
+- Conversation-agent system prompt in DOCS.md now tells the model to read
+  `premiere_date` for airdate questions
+
+### Potential breaking change
+
+- Item JSON grows a `premiere_date` key versus the 1.0.11 slim shape.
+  Home Assistant function *parameters* are unchanged (`value_template`
+  still returns `value_json.result`). Re-paste the DOCS.md system prompt
+  so the agent looks for `premiere_date`; the Functions YAML block does
+  not need to be replaced unless you also want the updated prompt text
+  nearby. Clients that reject unknown item keys must allow
+  `premiere_date`.
+
+
 ## 1.0.14
 
 - `control_media_player` PlayNow now honours `time_milliseconds` as a start

+# Emby MCP — documentation
+
+Full configuration and usage documentation for the **Emby MCP** Home Assistant
+add-on, plus standalone (non-add-on) usage of the underlying Go server.
+
+## Installation
+
+1. Add the repository to Home Assistant
+   (**Settings → Add-ons → Add-on Store → ⋮ → Repositories**):
+   `https://git.i3omb.com/gronod/ha-gronod-addons`
+2. Install **Emby MCP**
+3. Set `emby_server_url` plus username/password or an API key
+4. Leave **Restrict to localhost** enabled and start the add-on
+
+The add-on runs the Go Emby.MCP server in one container and exposes:
+
+- Streamable MCP at `/mcp` (Claude, ChatGPT, and other MCP clients)
+- REST tool calls at `/call/{tool}` (Home Assistant REST / conversation tools)
+- Health checks at `/healthz` and `/health`
+
+## Configuration
+
+| Option | Default | Description |
+|---|---|---|
+| `emby_server_url` | `http://homeassistant.local:8096` | Emby base URL |

+| `mcp_transport` | `http` | Keep `http` |
+| `mcp_listen_addr` | `0.0.0.0:8085` | Bind address |
+| `mcp_session_timeout` | `30m` | MCP session lifetime |
+| `log_level` | `INFO` | `DEBUG`, `INFO`, or `WARN` |
+| `player_users` | `[]` | Default include-list of Emby usernames/ids applied when a tool call omits `users` |
+| `player_links` | `[]` | Maps spoken names to HA `media_player` + Emby device. `names` is comma-separated. Set `device_ip` when the TV's LAN IP is known (Emby `device_ip_address` on a live session). WebOS often does **not** put that IP on the HA entity — copy it from the router or from an Emby session while the app is open. `emby_device_id` is the most stable key. |
+| `debug.rest` | _(optional)_ | Shown under optional options. At DEBUG, log REST bodies |
+| `debug.mcp` | _(optional)_ | Shown under optional options. At DEBUG, log `/mcp` bodies |
+| `debug.emby` | _(optional)_ | Shown under optional options. At DEBUG, log Emby API bodies |
+
+With **Restrict to localhost** on (default), only processes on the Home
+Assistant machine can connect, and those local calls use the stored
+credentials when no `Authorization` header is present.
+
+Turn the switch off only if you need LAN/remote MCP clients. In that mode
+stored credentials are **not** applied automatically; each client must send
+its own `Authorization` header.

-## Configuration
+Home Assistant Supervisor names a custom-repo add-on `{repo-hash}-{slug}`.
+The repo hash is derived from the repository URL, so it depends on which URL
+was added:
 
-| Option | Purpose |
+| Repository URL | Add-on hostname |
 |---|---|
-| `emby_server_url` | Emby base URL |
-| `emby_username` | Stored Emby username (optional if the client sends Basic/Bearer) |
-| `emby_password` | Stored Emby password |

-When `restrict_to_localhost` is enabled (default), the add-on uses
-`host_network` and listens on the HA machine loopback only. Local REST/MCP
-calls from Home Assistant do not need an `Authorization` header if username
-+ password or an API key is set in the add-on options.
+The examples below use `8e663231-emby-mcp`. If you added the repository before
+the rename, replace it with `c5cb4244-emby-mcp` throughout (it cannot be
+changed to a custom hostname).
 
-When the switch is off, the server listens on all interfaces and **does not**
-apply stored credentials to incoming requests. Remote clients must send
-`Authorization` themselves so the LAN cannot use the add-on as an open proxy.
+These steps assume the add-on has Emby credentials configured and
+**Restrict to localhost** is on. Home Assistant then calls
+`http://8e663231-emby-mcp:8085`; no `Authorization` header is required.
+
+### System prompt
+
+Add this line to the conversation agent's instructions:
+
+```text
+- Media & Emby: Never use execute_services for Emby search or playback. Use `emby_search` to find films, TV series, episodes, or music tracks. Use `emby_episode_list` to list or count a series' episodes (seasons via `emby_season_list`). Each episode item includes `premiere_date` (YYYY-MM-DD first air date) when Emby has that metadata; use it for airdate questions. Use `emby_resolve_player` when the user names a room or TV ("play on the lounge"). If `wake_required` is true, use Home Assistant `media_player.turn_on` on `ha_entity` and `media_player.select_source` with `ha_source` (Emby), wait, then resolve again. Only then use `emby_playback_control` PlayNow with that `session_id`. Use `emby_list_players` with `users` set to the household include-list to hide other people's clients. Use `emby_next_episode` when asked what episode to watch next.

+
+Item-shaped tool results (search, episode list, next episode, queues) include
+`premiere_date` as `YYYY-MM-DD` when Emby metadata has a first air / release
+date. The Functions YAML above does not declare that field — it arrives inside
+`value_json.result`. Update the system prompt so the model reads it.
+
+## Standalone usage (outside Home Assistant)
+
+The same Go binary can run outside the add-on, e.g. on a desktop or NAS.
+Build it from this directory:
+
+```sh
+go build -o emby-mcp ./cmd/emby-mcp
+```
+
+Requires Go 1.27+.
+
+### Environment configuration
+
+Create a `.env` file (in the working directory or next to the binary):
+
+```
+EMBY_SERVER_URL = "http://localhost:8096"
+
+# Either username/password:
+EMBY_USERNAME = "user"
+EMBY_PASSWORD = "pass"
+
+# ...or an API key plus the user ID it should act as:
+# EMBY_API_KEY = "..."
+# EMBY_USER_ID = "..."
+
+# Set to False to skip SSL certificate verification (e.g. self-signed).
+EMBY_VERIFY_SSL = True
+# Max items per search-result chunk; 0 = no limit.
+LLM_MAX_ITEMS = 100
+
+# Transport: "stdio" (default) or "http" (streamable HTTP at /mcp).
+MCP_TRANSPORT = stdio
+# HTTP mode: bind address and idle-session timeout.
+MCP_LISTEN_ADDR = "127.0.0.1:8080"
+MCP_SESSION_TIMEOUT = 30m
+```
+
+In `http` mode the `EMBY_USERNAME`/`EMBY_PASSWORD`/`EMBY_API_KEY` variables are
+not needed — every request authenticates against Emby (see Auth above).
+
+### Run modes
+
+Startup checks only (login + list libraries, then exit):
+
+```sh
+./emby-mcp -check
+```
+
+Run the MCP server on stdio:
+
+```sh
+./emby-mcp
+```
+
+HTTP mode (streamable HTTP transport, SSE streaming at `POST /mcp`):
+
+```sh
+MCP_TRANSPORT=http MCP_LISTEN_ADDR=0.0.0.0:8080 ./emby-mcp
+```
+
+`/healthz` is an unauthenticated liveness endpoint. Each MCP session is
+isolated: it gets its own library selection and search-chunking state, and
+requests to a session are rejected if they authenticate as a different user.
+
+Plain HTTP only — put the server behind a reverse proxy for TLS.
+
+### Docker (standalone image)
+
+```sh
+docker run -e EMBY_SERVER_URL="http://emby:8096" -p 8080:8080 \
+    git.i3omb.com/gronod/emby-mcp:1.0.0
+```
+
+The image defaults to `MCP_TRANSPORT=http` on `0.0.0.0:8080`.
+
+### Docker Compose / TrueNAS SCALE
+
+The YAML below is a Compose v2 file suitable for a TrueNAS SCALE Custom App
+(Apps → Discover → Custom App / Install via YAML) as well as plain
+`docker compose up -d`.
+
+Replace the placeholder values. On SCALE, map the same keys in the app
+environment UI if you prefer not to bake them into the file. Use the NAS
+host/IP (or an internal container DNS name) for `EMBY_SERVER_URL` so the
+app can reach Emby; `host` networking is an alternative if Emby is also
+on the same TrueNAS box.
+
+In HTTP mode (`MCP_TRANSPORT=http`, the image default) per-request Emby
+auth is used and `EMBY_USERNAME` / `EMBY_PASSWORD` / `EMBY_API_KEY` are
+optional. They are included so the same file also works if you switch
+the container to stdio or want a default identity.
+
+```yaml
+# emby-mcp — TrueNAS SCALE Custom App / docker compose
+# Placeholders: replace every CHANGE_ME_* value before starting.
+
+services:
+  emby-mcp:
+    image: git.i3omb.com/gronod/emby-mcp:1.0.0

-# emby-mcp (Go)
+# Emby MCP
 
-Go rewrite of the Python [Emby.MCP](https://github.com/angelltek/Emby.MCP) server — a Model Context
-Protocol (MCP) server that connects an Emby media server to an AI client such
-as Claude Desktop.
+<img src="logo.png" alt="Emby MCP" width="128" height="128">
 
-The original 20 tools match the Python version's parameter names; JSON output
-shapes are slimmed (empty fields are omitted, low-value metadata dropped).
-Additional Go-only tools add library browsing, next-episode resolution, and
-subtitle/audio-track control.
+Emby Model Context Protocol (MCP) server with a Home Assistant REST bridge,
+packaged as a Home Assistant add-on.
+
+Connect your Emby media server to AI clients and Home Assistant voice/conversation
+agents — search the library, browse shows and episodes, manage playlists, see
+what's playing, and control playback, all through natural-language tool calls.
 
 ## Features
 
-* Log on to / log out of an Emby media server (username/password, or API key)
-* List libraries, select a library, list genres
-* Search items by title/album, artist, genre, release years, and
-  item type (`item_types`, e.g. `Series`) — with chunked results for large
+* Streamable MCP endpoint at `/mcp` for Claude, ChatGPT, and other MCP clients
+* REST tool bridge at `/call/{tool}` designed for Home Assistant conversation
+  agents (works with Assist functions)
+* Search films, TV series, episodes, and music with chunked results for large
   libraries
-* Browse an item's children, a series' seasons, and a series' episodes
-  (`retrieve_item_children`, `retrieve_season_list`, `retrieve_episode_list`),
-  including per-user played state and resume positions
-* Resolve the next episode to play (`retrieve_next_episode`, modes
-  `next_unplayed`/`latest`) without a library selection
-* Create/modify playlists, add/remove/reorder items, share playlists
-* List player sessions, retrieve play queues, control playback
-  (play/pause/seek/skip, PlayNow)
-* Inspect the now-playing item's audio/subtitle tracks
-  (`retrieve_now_playing`) and switch tracks (`set_subtitle`,
-  `set_audio_track`) — mid-playback where the player supports it, else
-  restart-at-position
+* Browse item children, series seasons, and episode lists with per-user played
+  state and resume positions
+* Resolve the next episode to watch (`next_unplayed`/`latest`)
+* Create and modify playlists; list player sessions and control playback
+  (PlayNow, pause, seek, skip)
+* Inspect and switch audio/subtitle tracks mid-playback
+* Localhost-restricted mode (default): only Home Assistant itself can call the
+  bridge, using stored credentials — no per-request auth needed
 
-## Build
+## Requirements
 
-```
-go build -o emby-mcp ./cmd/emby-mcp
-```
+* A running [Emby](https://emby.media) server reachable from Home Assistant
+* Emby credentials: username + password, or an API key (+ user ID)
 
-Requires Go 1.27+.
+## Installation
 
-## Configuration
+1. Add this repository to Home Assistant
+   (**Settings → Add-ons → Add-on Store → ⋮ → Repositories**):
+   `https://git.i3omb.com/gronod/ha-gronod-addons`
+2. Install **Emby MCP** from the add-on store
+3. Set `emby_server_url` plus `emby_username`/`emby_password` (or
+   `emby_api_key` + `emby_user_id`), leave **Restrict to localhost** on, and
+   start the add-on
 
-Create a `.env` file (in the working directory or next to the binary):
-
-```
-EMBY_SERVER_URL = "http://localhost:8096"
-
-# Either username/password:
-EMBY_USERNAME = "user"
-EMBY_PASSWORD = "pass"
-
-# ...or an API key plus the user ID it should act as:
-# EMBY_API_KEY = "..."
-# EMBY_USER_ID = "..."
-
-# Set to False to skip SSL certificate verification (e.g. self-signed).
-EMBY_VERIFY_SSL = True
-# Max items per search-result chunk; 0 = no limit.
-LLM_MAX_ITEMS = 100
-
-# Transport: "stdio" (default) or "http" (streamable HTTP at /mcp).
-MCP_TRANSPORT = stdio
-# HTTP mode: bind address and idle-session timeout.
-MCP_LISTEN_ADDR = "127.0.0.1:8080"
-MCP_SESSION_TIMEOUT = 30m
-```
-
-In `http` mode the `EMBY_USERNAME`/`EMBY_PASSWORD`/`EMBY_API_KEY` variables are
-not needed — every request authenticates against Emby (see below).
-
-## Usage
-
-Startup checks only (login + list libraries, then exit):
-
-```
-./emby-mcp -check
-```
-
-Run the MCP server on stdio:
-
-```
-./emby-mcp
-```
-
-### HTTP mode
-
-```
-MCP_TRANSPORT=http MCP_LISTEN_ADDR=0.0.0.0:8080 ./emby-mcp
-```
-
-Serves the MCP [streamable HTTP](https://modelcontextprotocol.io/specification/2025-06-18/basic/transports)
-transport (SSE streaming) at `POST http://<addr>/mcp`. `/healthz` is an
-unauthenticated liveness endpoint.
-
-Every request must carry Emby credentials:
-
-* `Authorization: Basic base64(user:pass)` — exchanged for an Emby access
-  token via `AuthenticateByName` (cached ~15 min).
-* `Authorization: Bearer <token>` — an Emby access token or API key used
-  directly. The token's owning user is resolved automatically via
-  `GET /Sessions`; server-wide API keys and other ambiguous tokens require a
-  disambiguation header:
-  * `X-Emby-User-Id: <id>` — the Emby user to act as (validated), or
-  * `X-Emby-Username: <name>` — looked up via the public user list.
-
-Each MCP session is isolated: it gets its own library selection and
-search-chunking state, and requests to a session are rejected if they
-authenticate as a different user.
-
-Plain HTTP only — put the server behind a reverse proxy for TLS.
-
-### Docker
-
-```
-docker run -e EMBY_SERVER_URL="http://emby:8096" -p 8080:8080 \
-    git.i3omb.com/gronod/emby-mcp:1.0.0
-```
-
-The image defaults to `MCP_TRANSPORT=http` on `0.0.0.0:8080`.
-
-### Docker Compose / TrueNAS SCALE
-
-The YAML below is a Compose v2 file suitable for a TrueNAS SCALE Custom App
-(Apps → Discover → Custom App / Install via YAML) as well as plain
-`docker compose up -d`.
-
-Replace the placeholder values. On SCALE, map the same keys in the app
-environment UI if you prefer not to bake them into the file. Use the NAS
-host/IP (or an internal container DNS name) for `EMBY_SERVER_URL` so the
-app can reach Emby; `host` networking is an alternative if Emby is also
-on the same TrueNAS box.
-
-In HTTP mode (`MCP_TRANSPORT=http`, the image default) per-request Emby
-auth is used and `EMBY_USERNAME` / `EMBY_PASSWORD` / `EMBY_API_KEY` are
-optional. They are included so the same file also works if you switch
-the container to stdio or want a default identity.
-
-```yaml

+- Build upstream `ha-n95-local-control` **v0.1.2**
+  (`7bed99cc4c3222bad648efcddcdfed95652277f7`).
+- Health bind failure is no longer fatal. If 8080 is taken (OpenThread
+  Border Router and other add-ons), lookup 8007, firmware 8005, and
+  XMPP 5223 stay up. Set optional `health_port` if you still want

+- Upstream logs each successful listen address.
+
+## 0.1.1
+
+- Declare TCP 8007, 8005, 5223, and 8080 in the add-on `ports` map so
+  Home Assistant OS Supervisor opens those ports on the host firewall.
+  Host networking is unchanged; Docker does not remap the ports.
+- Potential operational change: after update, the add-on Network tab
+  lists the four listeners. Rebuild/reinstall so HA picks up 0.1.1.
+
+## 0.1.0
+
+- First Home Assistant add-on release
+- Build the upstream Deebot N95 bridge from the pinned `v0.1.0` tag
+  (`75354b35180f4cc5e92187b6149322b0b94533ba`)
+- Bind robot-facing lookup, firmware, and XMPP listeners on the Home Assistant
+  host network
+- Discover Supervisor MQTT connection details automatically with per-field

+# Deebot N95 Local Control — documentation
+
+Full installation, network, configuration, verification, and troubleshooting
+information for the **Deebot N95 Local Control** Home Assistant add-on.
+
+## How it works
+
+The add-on replaces the legacy Ecovacs bootstrap and XMPP destinations used by
+an already-provisioned Deebot N95, then exposes the robot through Home
+Assistant MQTT discovery.
+
+```text
+N95 ── DNS ──> your LAN resolver
+N95 ── HTTP 8007 / 8005, XMPP 5223 ──> this add-on ──> MQTT broker ──> Home Assistant
+```
+
+The add-on does not provision a robot and does not run a DNS server. It supports
+multiple robots; each robot receives its own MQTT client and topic tree after
+it reaches XMPP READY state and reveals its serial number.
+
+## Before you start
+
+You need:
+
+* An already-provisioned Deebot N95 using the captured `wukong` / class `155`
+  protocol. Other Ecovacs models are not established as compatible.
+* A stable LAN IPv4 address for the Home Assistant host, reserved in DHCP.
+* Control of the DNS resolver supplied to the robot by DHCP.
+* TCP `8007`, `8005`, and `5223` available on the Home Assistant host and
+  reachable from the robot. TCP `8080` is used for health checks.
+* A broker reachable from the Home Assistant host and Home Assistant MQTT
+  configured with discovery enabled.
+* A correct host clock and IANA timezone.
+
+The robot caches its XMPP address after boot. If the address or listener ports
+change, update DNS/configuration and reboot the robot; an ordinary reconnect
+continues to use the cached destination.
+
+## Step 1 — reserve the host address and configure DNS
+
+Reserve the Home Assistant host's LAN IPv4 address. Configure the resolver sent
+to the robot by DHCP with this A record:
+
+```text
+lbo.ecouser.net  A  <HOME_ASSISTANT_LAN_IPV4>
+```
+
+Set the add-on's `advertise_ip` to the same literal IPv4 address. Do not use
+`0.0.0.0`, a container address, or a hostname. The `155.ecorobot.net` XMPP JID
+domain does not need a DNS override for the captured firmware.
+
+## Step 2 — install and configure
+
+1. Add this repository in Home Assistant
+   (**Settings → Add-ons → Add-on Store → ⋮ → Repositories**):
+   `https://git.i3omb.com/gronod/ha-gronod-addons`
+2. Install **Deebot N95 Local Control**.
+3. Enter the reserved host IPv4 under **Advertised IP address**.
+4. Select the correct IANA timezone, for example `Europe/London`.
+5. Leave advanced listener values unset unless their default ports conflict.
+
+When a Supervisor MQTT service is available, the add-on automatically reads
+its host, port, TLS flag, username, and password. Every manually supplied MQTT
+option overrides only that individual discovered field. This permits, for
+example, using discovered credentials with a manually supplied private CA.
+
+For an external broker with no Supervisor service, set at least `mqtt_host` and
+any required credentials/TLS options.
+
+## Step 3 — start and redirect the robot
+
+Start the add-on and inspect its log. Verify the DNS and HTTP endpoints using
+the checks below, then reboot the robot. The robot should bootstrap through the
+lookup endpoint, open XMPP to the add-on, and appear as an MQTT vacuum in Home
+Assistant.
+
+No MQTT connection is expected when the add-on first starts. The bridge creates
+a broker client only after a robot reaches XMPP READY and identifies itself.
+
+## Configuration
+
+Normal setup shows `advertise_ip`, `timezone`, and `log_level`. Select **Show
+unused optional configuration options** to reveal MQTT overrides and advanced
+network/protocol controls.
+
+| Option | Default | Environment | Description |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| `advertise_ip` | required | `ADVERTISE_IP` | Stable, nonzero host IPv4 returned in lookup responses |

+
+Optional values are exported only when configured, preserving upstream
+defaults. Boolean values are passed as lowercase `true` or `false`. All four
+listener ports must be distinct and in the range 1–65535.
+
+## Host networking and ports
+
+The add-on uses host networking because the robot must connect to the exact
+address and ports returned by `/lookup.do`. The same ports are declared in
+`config.yaml` so Supervisor opens them on the Home Assistant OS host
+firewall. Without that map, the process can listen on the host while LAN
+clients (including the robot) time out.
+
+| Port | Purpose | Robot access |
+|---|---|---|
+| `8007/tcp` | Bootstrap lookup (`EcoMsgNew`, `EcoUpdate`) | required |
+| `8005/tcp` | Firmware check (expected 404 response) | required |
+| `5223/tcp` | Plaintext XMPP | required |
+| `8080/tcp` | Health endpoint | not required |
+
+Changing a robot-facing port changes both the listener and the value advertised
+to the robot. Also change the matching `ports:` entry so Supervisor still
+opens the host firewall for that port. Check that another host service does
+not already occupy the port. Host networking means Docker does not remap
+these ports; the `ports` map is for Supervisor visibility and firewall
+allowance only.
+
+## MQTT and Home Assistant discovery
+
+Supervisor MQTT values are loaded first; explicitly configured options then
+replace individual fields. The final broker host must come from one of those
+sources or the add-on exits with an actionable error.
+
+For TLS with a private CA, place a readable PEM bundle in Home Assistant's
+`ssl` directory and set `mqtt_ca_file` to its in-container path, such as
+`/ssl/broker-ca.pem`. TLS hostname verification remains enabled, so
+`mqtt_host` must match the broker certificate.
+
+The bridge publishes discovery below
+`<ha_discovery_prefix>/vacuum/ecovacs_<serial>/config` and robot data below
+`<mqtt_base>/<serial>/...`. Broker ACLs must allow each generated client to
+publish/subscribe under those trees. The default client prefix is based on the
+add-on hostname and has the robot serial appended.
+
+## Robot features and entities
+
+The tagged upstream release publishes a native MQTT vacuum with availability,
+state, battery, fan speed, error information, and start, stop, dock, spot, and
+locate commands. It also supports extension movement commands, cleaning modes,
+schedule CRUD, consumable lifespan state, and diagnostic topics. Pause, resume,
+mapping, and segment cleaning are not advertised. Multiple connected robots remain isolated by
+serial number.
+
+`raw_commands` permits protocol-level `<ctl>` input intended for controlled
+experimentation. It bypasses normal high-level command constraints and should
+remain disabled for ordinary use.
+
+## Check the installation
+
+Replace the example addresses with your resolver and Home Assistant host:
+
+```sh
+nslookup lbo.ecouser.net 192.0.2.53
+curl -sS -X POST -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
+  --data '{"todo":"FindBest","service":"EcoMsgNew"}' \
+  http://192.0.2.10:8007/lookup.do
+curl -sS -X POST -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
+  --data '{"todo":"FindBest","service":"EcoUpdate"}' \
+  http://192.0.2.10:8007/lookup.do
+curl -i http://192.0.2.10:8005/products/wukong/class/155/firmware/latest.json
+curl -sS http://192.0.2.10:8080/healthz
+```
+
+The lookup responses must contain the configured advertised IPv4 and numeric
+ports. The firmware request should return HTTP 404. The health endpoint should
+report healthy listeners. After these pass, reboot the robot and check:
+
+1. the add-on log for XMPP READY and the robot serial;
+2. broker activity below `ecovacs/<serial>` and the discovery prefix;
+3. a newly discovered MQTT vacuum entity in Home Assistant;
+4. state refresh and a harmless command such as locating the robot.
+
+## Security notes
+
+* Robot XMPP, including SASL PLAIN credentials, is plaintext. Keep ports 8005,
+  8007, and 5223 restricted to the trusted robot LAN.
+* MQTT authentication and TLS protect only the broker connection; they do not
+  encrypt robot traffic.
+* Protect broker passwords and private CA files. The wrapper and upstream
+  configuration log do not print the MQTT password.
+* Do not expose the robot-facing listeners to the internet.
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+**The add-on exits with “No MQTT broker is available”**
+No Supervisor MQTT service was found and `mqtt_host` is unset. Install/configure
+a broker service or enter the external broker host.
+
+**The robot still contacts the cloud**
+Query the exact resolver supplied by DHCP and confirm `lbo.ecouser.net` returns
+`advertise_ip`. Remove cached/secondary public DNS paths, then reboot the robot.
+
+**LAN clients time out on 8007 even though the add-on log shows listeners**
+On Home Assistant OS, Supervisor only opens inbound host ports listed under
+`ports:` in `config.yaml`. Version 0.1.1 declares 8007, 8005, 5223, and 8080.
+Rebuild/update the add-on so that version is installed, then confirm the
+Network tab lists those ports. Loopback on the HAOS box can succeed while
+the robot still times out if the firewall hole is missing.
+
+**8007/8005/5223 never appear on the host while 8080 is owned by OTBR**
+Before v0.1.2 a busy health port stopped every listener. From v0.1.2 the
+process logs `health listener failed; robot listeners continue` and keeps
+8007/8005/5223. Set optional `health_port` to a free port if you want
+`/healthz`. Rebuild so the add-on is 0.1.2.
+
+**The add-on reports an address-already-in-use error**
+Another host service owns lookup, firmware, or XMPP. Stop that service or
+set a distinct optional port. Reboot the robot after changing advertised ports.
+
+**The robot does not reconnect after an address or port change**
+The N95 caches XMPP details for its powered-on lifetime. Power-cycle/reboot it
+to force a new bootstrap lookup.
+
+**There is no MQTT connection immediately after startup**
+This is expected until a robot reaches XMPP READY and provides its serial.
+Investigate DNS, listener reachability, and XMPP logs first.
+
+**The robot connects but no entity appears**
+Confirm Home Assistant MQTT discovery is enabled and
+`ha_discovery_prefix` matches its configured prefix. Check broker ACLs for both
+the discovery and robot topic trees.
+
+**MQTT authentication or TLS fails**
+Check the effective host, port, username, and TLS override combination. For a
+private CA, verify the `/ssl/...` path exists and is readable, and that the
+broker certificate matches `mqtt_host`.
+
+**Schedules run at the wrong time**
+Set `timezone` to the correct IANA name and restart the add-on, then reconnect
+the robot so it receives the updated time and UTC offset.

+# Deebot N95 Local Control
+
+<img src="logo.png" alt="Deebot N95 Local Control" width="128" height="128">
+
+Redirect an already-provisioned Ecovacs Deebot N95 from its legacy cloud
+bootstrap and XMPP endpoint to a local bridge, packaged as a Home Assistant
+add-on.
+
+The bridge publishes each robot through MQTT discovery as a native Home
+Assistant vacuum. Once the LAN DNS redirect is in place, robot control and
+state stay on your local network.
+
+## Features
+
+* Local HTTP bootstrap and XMPP endpoint for compatible Deebot N95 robots
+* Automatic Home Assistant MQTT vacuum discovery
+* Multiple robots, with separate MQTT clients and topic trees by serial number
+* Vacuum state and control, cleaning modes, movement, schedules, consumable
+  lifespan, and diagnostics
+* Automatic Supervisor MQTT broker discovery with per-setting overrides
+* Optional MQTT authentication, TLS, and private CA support
+* Health endpoint for installation checks
+
+## Requirements
+
+* An already-provisioned Deebot N95 using the `wukong` / class `155` protocol
+* Control of the DNS resolver supplied to the robot by DHCP
+* A stable IPv4 address for the Home Assistant host
+* TCP ports `8005`, `8007`, and `5223` reachable from the robot
+* Home Assistant MQTT configured with discovery enabled, and a reachable broker
+* The correct IANA timezone for the robot's clock and schedules
+
+> The robot-facing XMPP connection, including SASL PLAIN authentication, is
+> plaintext. Run this add-on only on a trusted LAN and restrict access to its
+> listener ports. MQTT TLS protects the broker connection, not robot XMPP.
+
+## Installation
+
+1. Add this repository to Home Assistant
+   (**Settings → Add-ons → Add-on Store → ⋮ → Repositories**):
+   `https://git.i3omb.com/gronod/ha-gronod-addons`
+2. Install **Deebot N95 Local Control**
+3. Set **Advertised IP address** to the stable LAN IPv4 address of the Home
+   Assistant host and select the correct timezone
+4. Configure LAN DNS so `lbo.ecouser.net` resolves to that address
+5. Start the add-on, verify its health and lookup endpoints, then reboot the
+   robot so it performs bootstrap again
+
+See [DOCS.md](DOCS.md) for the complete network setup, option reference,
+verification procedure, MQTT behavior, security notes, and troubleshooting.

+# OpenAI Codex Proxy — documentation
+
+Full setup, configuration, and troubleshooting for the **OpenAI Codex Proxy**
+Home Assistant add-on.
+
+## How it works
+
+The add-on runs [openai-oauth](https://github.com/EvanZhouDev/openai-oauth)
+(by [@EvanZhouDev](https://github.com/EvanZhouDev)), a local reverse proxy
+that speaks the same authenticated Codex API as OpenAI's
+[@openai/codex](https://github.com/openai/codex) CLI
+(`chatgpt.com/backend-api/codex`). It exposes an OpenAI-compatible `/v1` API
+backed by your ChatGPT account instead of API credits.
+
+Because `openai-oauth` itself has no client authentication, this add-on binds
+it to loopback and publishes a small token-protected proxy on port `10531`.
+Every request must send `Authorization: Bearer <key>` (or `x-api-key`).
+
+## Step 1 — generate `auth.json`
+
+On a desktop machine with Node.js installed (macOS, Linux, or Windows):
+
+```sh
+npx @openai/codex login
+```
+
+A browser opens for the ChatGPT sign-in. Afterwards your credentials are at:
+
+| OS | Path |
+|---|---|
+| macOS / Linux | `~/.codex/auth.json` |
+| Windows | `%USERPROFILE%\.codex\auth.json` |
+
+> Treat `auth.json` like a password — it grants access to your ChatGPT
+> account. Don't commit it, post it, or leave it world-readable.
+
+## Step 2 — copy `auth.json` to Home Assistant
+
+The add-on reads `/share/auth.json`. Copy the file into the `share` folder on
+your Home Assistant machine using either:
+
+* the **Samba share** add-on — drop `auth.json` into `\\<host>\share\`, or
+* **SSH / Terminal** — e.g. `scp ~/.codex/auth.json root@<ha-host>:/share/auth.json`
+
+## Step 3 — install and start
+
+1. Add this repository in Home Assistant
+   (**Settings → Add-ons → Add-on Store → ⋮ → Repositories**):
+   `https://git.i3omb.com/gronod/ha-gronod-addons`
+2. Install **OpenAI Codex Proxy** and start it
+3. Open the add-on **Log** — it prints the generated local API key:
+
+```text
+[INFO] Generated a new local API key (stored at /config/.api_key)
+[INFO] Local API key: <your-key>
+```
+
+If `/share/auth.json` is missing the add-on logs instructions and retries
+every 60 seconds — just copy the file and wait for the restart.
+
+## Step 4 — connect an integration
+
+Configure your OpenAI-compatible integration with:
+
+| Setting | Value |
+|---|---|
+| Base URL | `http://<home-assistant-host>:10531/v1` |
+| API key | the key from the add-on log (or your `api_key` option) |
+
+From another add-on or a supervised Home Assistant container you can also use
+the internal DNS name `http://8e663231-openai-codex-proxy:10531/v1`.
+
+Quick check from a shell:
+
+```sh
+curl http://<ha-host>:10531/v1/models \
+  -H "Authorization: Bearer <your-key>"
+```
+
+## Options
+
+| Option | Default | Description |
+|---|---|---|
+| `api_key` | _(empty)_ | Local API key clients must send. Leave empty and a random key is generated on first start, saved to `/config/.api_key` (it survives restarts), and printed in the add-on log. Paste your own key here if you want to use a fixed value — the saved/generated key is ignored while this option is set. |
+| `log_level` | `INFO` | `DEBUG`, `INFO`, or `WARN` — verbosity of the add-on wrapper. `DEBUG` also enables upstream request logging. |
+| `log_requests` | `false` | Set upstream `CODEX_OPENAI_SERVER_LOG_REQUESTS=1`: emits one JSON line per request (path, status, duration, token usage). |
+
+To generate a suitable key yourself, run any of these on a desktop:
+
+```sh
+openssl rand -hex 32
+# or, matching the add-on's own generator:
+node -e "console.log(require('crypto').randomBytes(32).toString('base64url'))"
+```
+
+then paste the output into the `api_key` option and restart the add-on.
+
+The host-side port mapping (`10531`) can be changed or disabled in the
+add-on's **Network** section; the container-internal port stays `10531`.
+
+## Endpoints
+
+| Path | Method | Purpose |
+|---|---|---|
+| `/v1/responses` | POST | OpenAI Responses API |
+| `/v1/chat/completions` | POST | Chat Completions API |
+| `/v1/models` | GET | Models available to your account |
+| `/v1/images/generations`, `/v1/images/edits` | POST | Image generation/editing |
+| `/health` | GET | Unauthenticated liveness check |
+
+All `/v1/*` routes require `Authorization: Bearer <key>`.
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+**Log shows `ERROR: /share/auth.json not found!`**
+The file isn't in the `share` folder yet, or has a different name. Copy it as
+described in Step 2 and wait for the automatic restart (60 s).
+
+**Requests return `401 authentication_error`**
+Wrong or missing API key. Use the key printed in the add-on log, or set the
+`api_key` option explicitly and restart.
+
+**Requests return `502 Upstream not ready`**
+`openai-oauth` is still starting (it resolves your account's model list from
+ChatGPT) or crashed — check the add-on log above the proxy messages.
+
+**Responses fail with auth errors after weeks/months**
+OAuth tokens normally refresh automatically and are written back to
+`/share/auth.json`. If the refresh token itself has expired (or you replaced
+`auth.json` with an older copy), re-run `npx @openai/codex login` on your
+desktop and copy the fresh file to `/share` again.
+
+**Rate limits / missing models**
+Only models your ChatGPT plan supports appear, and Codex account rate limits
+apply. `openai-oauth` is an unofficial community project; OpenAI may change
+the underlying endpoints at any time.
+
+## Security notes
+
+* The published port is protected by the local API key — anyone on your LAN
+  still needs it to use your ChatGPT account. Keep it secret like a password.
+* To restrict access further, disable the host port mapping and reach the
+  add-on only via its internal hostname `8e663231-openai-codex-proxy` from
+  other add-ons/Home Assistant.
+* `/share/auth.json` is visible to anything with Samba/SSH access to the
+  `share` folder.

+# OpenAI Codex Proxy
+
+<img src="logo.png" alt="OpenAI Codex Proxy" width="128" height="128">
+
+Local OpenAI-compatible API endpoint backed by your ChatGPT account's Codex
+OAuth login — packaged as a Home Assistant add-on.
+
+Point any OpenAI-compatible integration (for example an OpenAI conversation
+integration in Home Assistant) at this add-on and it answers through your
+ChatGPT Plus/Pro account instead of paid API credits.
+
+## Features
+
+* OpenAI-compatible endpoints: `/v1/responses`, `/v1/chat/completions`,
+  `/v1/models`, and `/v1/images/*`
+* Exposes the Codex models your ChatGPT account can actually use
+* Streaming responses, tool calls, and reasoning traces
+* Local API key required on every request — generated automatically on first
+  start (no open proxy on your LAN)
+* Optional per-request JSON logging for troubleshooting
+* OAuth tokens refresh automatically and persist in `/share/auth.json`
+
+## Requirements
+
+* A ChatGPT account (Plus or Pro recommended for Codex access)
+* A Codex `auth.json` file, generated on a desktop machine with
+  `npx @openai/codex login` and copied to this Home Assistant machine's
+  `/share` folder
+
+## Installation
+
+1. Add this repository to Home Assistant
+   (**Settings → Add-ons → Add-on Store → ⋮ → Repositories**):
+   `https://git.i3omb.com/gronod/ha-gronod-addons`
+2. Copy your `auth.json` to `/share/auth.json` (Samba or SSH add-on)
+3. Install **OpenAI Codex Proxy** and start it
+4. Copy the generated local API key from the add-on log and configure your
+   OpenAI-compatible integration with base URL
+   `http://<home-assistant-host>:10531/v1`
+
+See [DOCS.md](DOCS.md) for the step-by-step guide, option reference, and
+troubleshooting.
