General guidelines

  • When looking for examples, prefer integrations with the platinum or gold quality scale level first.
  • Polling intervals are NOT user-configurable. Never add scan_interval, update_interval, or polling frequency options to config flows or config entries.
  • Do NOT allow users to set config entry names in config flows. Names are automatically generated or can be customized later in UI. Exception: helper integrations may allow custom names.

How Rules Apply

  1. Check manifest.json: Look for "quality_scale" key to determine integration level
  2. Bronze Rules: Always required for any integration with quality scale
  3. Higher Tier Rules: Only apply if integration targets that tier or higher
  4. Rule Status: Check quality_scale.yaml in integration folder for:
    • done: Rule implemented
    • exempt: Rule doesn't apply (with reason in comment)
    • todo: Rule needs implementation
