## Notes / Gotchas

- `smartthinq_sensors` is in `setup_retry` status — LG appliance data may be stale or unavailable until the add-on is updated and HA is restarted.
- The `ge_home` integration requires a restart after the pending HACS update.
- The Kitchen Smart Lock (Aqara U100) is bridged via the Aqara Hub M2 (Matter). If the Hub M2 goes offline, the lock entity becomes unavailable — but the physical lock still works mechanically.
- `Kitchen Cabinet Pico` has no floor assignment (area_id: null) — this is a cosmetic registration issue; the device is physically in the kitchen.
