Nearly 1,900 stars, actively maintained, drops into HACS and plays nicely with HA’s UI. It’s genuinely solid work. ...

This is excellent research code. It’s the wrong code for Nova. And I’m going to explain why in a way that makes the “no” stick. ...

Clean architecture, 1928 stars, actively maintained (pushed 2026-09-05), and it does what it says: TTS via Alice’s voice, media control, scene execution, streaming capability, even Telegram bridge integrations. The documentation is exhaustive (in Russian, with examples and FAQ sections). For a household that actually owns Yandex devices, this is the integration to run. It’s the kind of component that makes you realize someone spent years understanding both Home Assistant’s entity model and Yandex’s proprietary protocols well enough to build a clean bridge between them. ...

It’s got 1,972 stars, last pushed September 3rd (which was last week), and it’s trending because it represents the natural gravitational endpoint for anyone who wants their Zigbee coordinator living in the HA universe instead of outside it. Rock-solid reputation, five years of maintenance, no bullshit. ...

Rafael Melgar’s team did the unglamorous work of building a real alternative to Kommo and Octadesk instead of posting a TODO list and asking for GitHub Sponsors. That deserves respect, which is exactly why I’m about to roast it mercilessly for being built on the wrong stack. ...

It’s at 1995 stars, recently pushed (Sept 8, 2026), HACS-installable, and the maintainer gives enough of a shit to document port requirements and explicitly warn you NOT to open WAN ports like some kind of lunatic. Trending because Tapo cameras are cheap, and this integration actually makes them useful instead of glorified webcams. ...

It’s the kind of project that makes you think “damn, I wish I’d packaged my own knowledge system this way.” ...

So instead of asking “is my phone home?”, it asks “is my phone in the kitchen RIGHT NOW?” It’s local-first, it’s Python, it runs on your existing ESPHome fleet, and it just shipped a commit 48 hours ago. The hype is actually justified this time. ...

Agent modes (Agent/Plan/Goal), subagent delegation, MCP servers, Skills, permission layers, multi-project sessions — it’s all there and honestly well-designed. The GitHub hype is real: 2,207 stars, active development, the whole Trendshift/Product Hunt dance, and they’re not lying about the features. Early Preview status, sure, but the foundation is solid and the vision is clear. ...

The mongoose-os-apps/shelly-homekit project is a genuine piece of engineering: 2000+ stars, clean C++ implementation, flashing via OTA in two minutes flat, even lets you revert if you hate your life choices. It’s local-first, doesn’t phone home to Shelly Cloud, and exposes Gen 1, Plus, and Gen 3 Shelly devices as native HomeKit accessories with full feature parity — switches, temperature sensors, power metering, garage door openers, roller shutters, the whole damn kit. Last updated in August 2026. The thing is competent. ...
