Compares a Home Assistant release against the live setup and produces a personalized summary of highlights, new integrations, improvements, and breaking changes, saving the result to ha-release-notes/ha-release-[VERSION].md. Use when the user wants a release summary tailored to their actual devices, automations, scenes, scripts, and configuration.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# HA Release Notes ## When to use - The user wants a personalized summary of a Home Assistant release based on the current live setup. - The request names a release by URL or version (`2026.11`, `2026.11.0`, `2026.11.2`), or names none, in which case the latest release from the HA blog should be used. - The user wants highlights, new integrations, integration improvements, or backward-incompatible change impact assessed against their actual devices, automations, scenes, scripts, and configuration. ## Input Resolve the argument to one release post before Step 1: - Release URL: use the exact Home Assistant blog URL as given. - Version: every monthly release `<year>.<month>` has one post at `https://www.home-assistant.io/blog/<date>/release-<year><month>/` (for example `release-202611` for 2026.11). Find it in `https://www.home-assistant.io/blog/categories/release-notes/`. A patch version such as `2026.11.2` uses the same post: its changes sit under the post's `#patch-releases` section. - Nothing provided: use the newest post in `https://www.home-assistant.io/blog/categories/release-notes/`. ## Workflow ### Step 1 — Get current setup context …

How to install
mdr add calexandre/homeassistant-assistant/ha-release-notes@sha256:92b97e2d9e19dd4eThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261107.92802e5, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
