# HA Safety Audit

## Purpose

The plugin's safety gate only runs when automations are built through `ha-build-automation`. Automations and scripts added directly via the HA UI bypass it. This skill re-audits every live automation and script against the current safety policy and surfaces violations so the operator can review them.

Violations listed in `.hermit/compiled/acknowledged-violations.md` (under `automation_ids` or `script_ids`) are suppressed from the actionable findings and reported separately as acknowledged.

## Steps

1. Run `${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/bin/ha-agent-lab ha audit-automations`.
2. Run `${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/bin/ha-agent-lab ha audit-scripts`.
3. Each command writes JSON + markdown artifacts under `.hermit/raw/audit-ha-safety-*` and `.hermit/raw/audit-ha-script-safety-*` and prints one JSON object: `date`, `domain`, `scanned`, `passed`, `violations` (each `alias`, `id`, `reasons`), and the counts `acknowledged`, `unmanaged` and `fetch_failures`.
4. Render one block per command as below and join the two with a blank separator line. reflect --check-id ha-safety-audit --check hermitd-homeassistant:ha-safety-audit consumes the result as the scheduled check output.

## Output contract

Render each command's block in this shape, one violation line per entry with its `reasons` joined by `; `:

```
ha-safety-audit findings — YYYY-MM-DD
Policy violations: N
- <alias> (`<id>`): <reasons>
No action needed: M automations passed
Acknowledged (suppressed): K
Skipped (no numeric id): U
Skipped (404 on config fetch): F
```

Scripts use `ha-script-safety-audit findings — YYYY-MM-DD` as the first line and `scripts` in place of `automations`. Leave out a count line whose count is 0.

If `violations` is empty, the `Policy violations`, violation and `No action needed` lines become one: `No actionable findings. (<scanned> automations scanned)` or `No actionable findings. (<scanned> scripts scanned)`.

## Failure modes

- HA unreachable or erroring: the CLI prints `{"error":"ha_unreachable:<detail>"}` or `{"error":"ha_http_<status>:<detail>"}` and exits 1. Treat either as "skipped, cannot audit" in reflect --check-id ha-safety-audit --check hermitd-homeassistant:ha-safety-audit context; do not retry automatically.
- No automations or scripts configured → `No actionable findings. (0 automations/scripts scanned)` — not an error.
