The user's remaining universal-media-player dependency: some commands need hardware
this integration deliberately does not drive — a speaker switch that owns the
volume, an AVR input that has to move with the Shield, a mute that has to hit two
devices. One script per command is the escape hatch, and the rule is absolute: a
configured command calls its script INSTEAD of the native protocol/ADB path, and
with nothing configured every command behaves exactly as it did (the whole existing
suite passes untouched, which is what "byte-identical" means here).
* const.py owns the option: CONF_COMMAND_SCRIPTS (one dict, keyed by command),
SCRIPT_COMMANDS (turn_on, turn_off, volume_up, volume_down, volume_set,
volume_mute, select_source) and command_scripts(), the ONE normalizer of the
stored shape — options round-trip through HA storage and can be hand-edited, so a
value that is not a non-empty string for a known command is dropped instead of
reaching the service layer.
* media_player.py: async_run_command_script() calls script.turn_on with the script
entity and its variables, blocking=True so a failure surfaces HERE — a mapped
command that cannot run raises HomeAssistantError naming the command and script
rather than falling back silently or doing nothing. Every command method checks
its script first; volume_set passes `level` and select_source passes `app_name`.
* volume_mute also passes `is_volume_muted`: without it a mute script cannot tell
muting from unmuting, which is the case the user asked for.
* volume_set and select_source have NO native path (C-VOL; app launching goes
through play_media), so they are advertised only when configured — the feature
flag is what makes HA offer the command at all. Unset leaves the feature set
exactly as it was.
* remote.py shares async_run_command_script for POWER: turn_on/turn_off is one
configuration and the remote entity is the other route to it, so a script that
owns the power sequence owns it on both.
* config_flow.py: one entity selector per command (domain: script), stored as the
single dict option, prefilled from the entry's options and cleared by saving
without a value — the editor is the truth, as with the app map editor.
Two things the harness caught, worth recording: `MediaPlayerEntityFeature` has no
SET_VOLUME (the real member is VOLUME_SET — the stub enum and the drift engine
disagree with a wrong name), and the stub `homeassistant.exceptions` had no
HomeAssistantError, so the stub now mirrors the real inheritance
(ServiceValidationError derives from it).
tests/test_command_scripts.py covers each command mapped and unmapped, the exact
variable payloads, the native path untouched when unmapped (protocol key, then the
ADB fallthrough with the protocol down), the rejecting script's error, hand-edited
option shapes, and the feature set. test_config_flow_ux.py covers the selectors,
the stored shape, prefill and clearing. New tests leaked the harness into the next
file at first (a missing per-file scope); that is fixed, and
tests/test_harness_scoping.py now asserts that every file loading the harness scopes
it, so the next such mistake fails where it is made.
Verified: 401 passed / 2 skipped, 402 / 1 with androidtvremote2, reverse file order
401 / 2, ruff clean, and the drift engine exits 0 on a real-HA interpreter
(23 modules, 59 imports, 157 relative imports, 36 call arguments, 6 awaited HA calls).
A subset of test files in an order the suite was not written for failed 3
test_init.py::TestImportStep tests with ModuleNotFoundError: voluptuous, while the
full suite stayed green. Two order-only mechanisms, both now fixed at the source:
1. entity_stublib.install() guarded on ONE sentinel
(`homeassistant.components.media_player`). A file whose teardown popped
`voluptuous` but left the sentinel turned the next file's install() into a no-op,
so importing config_flow failed. The guard now checks every face a file scopes on
(`_STUB_FACES`, derived from ENTITIES_STUB_NAMES so the two cannot drift) and
rebuilds the set when anything is missing. install() also registers the
`homeassistant.helpers.selector` face itself, which the per-file installers had
been adding separately — without it the derived list would never be complete.
2. Teardowns restored only the names their file had listed, so a module the file
loaded (`nsh.diagnostics`, `nsh.media_player`) survived into the next file still
holding stub objects — a stub exception class, the redact helper — that had since
been replaced; comparisons against the new objects then failed (5 tests in
test_command_routing on an unlucky order). Every file now ends through
entity_stublib.snapshot_modules()/restore_modules(), which drops EVERYTHING the
file created under the harness namespaces (homeassistant/voluptuous/nsh) and puts
back everything it replaced. Hand-written lists were the bug, so there is none to
keep in sync.
The t7 no-leak discipline is unchanged: a file's stubs still never reach another
file, and a file's loaded modules still do not survive it. A session-scoped baseline
install was tried first and rejected: files whose own installer guards on "the stubs
are already there" skipped installing their richer faces, which produced exactly the
inconsistent state a baseline is meant to prevent (10 test_standalone_setup failures).
tests/test_harness_scoping.py: the sentinel poisoning, the wholesale-rebuild
invariant, a teardown that removes what the file loaded, the stale-object case
(diagnostics vs the redact helper), and — because order is the thing under test —
two subprocess runs of the reported orderings.
Verified: the reported order (test_command_routing, test_protocol_transport,
test_standalone_setup, test_init) 152 passed / 1 skipped; the minimal pair both ways;
the previously failing 6-test order now 167 passed; every test file in REVERSE
alphabetical order 369 passed / 2 skipped; two scrambled thirds green; full suite
369 / 2 and 370 / 1 with androidtvremote2; ruff clean.
Two acceptance items that had no test of their own:
* the Jellyfin auto-detect tiers. t41 replaced the entity-derived search key
(the Android TV Remote entity's friendly_name) with the names setup already
knows — the name the user typed, then the discovery device name. Three tests
pin it, the third being the regression: a Jellyfin player matching the *atv*
friendly_name, with a serving state, used to be auto-detected; now only the
typed/discovered names search. Red proof on the pre-t41 tree (60d884b):
`_find_jellyfin_entity(hass, "jellyfin shield")` DID match
media_player.jellyfin_shield there.
* diagnostics redaction of the renamed address field. The G14 field list already
carried "host" (alongside the legacy spellings), but the test only exercised
the legacy keys — so a future edit could have dropped the live one unnoticed.
The fixture and assertion now cover both spellings.
Verified: 337 passed / 2 skipped, 338 / 1 with androidtvremote2, ruff clean.
The user ruling: this integration REPLACES both old integrations, so nothing may
depend on an androidtv/androidtv_remote entity anymore.
Removed:
* the setup-form field + its entity selector (CONF_ANDROIDTV_ENTITY is no longer
offered, only read by the migration that drops it);
* the entity-derived unique_id derivation (_unique_id_from_atv_device, t29 G2)
and, with it, every registry lookup for another integration's devices — the
user step now sets NO unique_id at all; the protocol MAC learned during
pairing is the identity;
* the Jellyfin auto-detect's second tier (the atv entity's friendly_name) — it
now uses the entry name the user typed or the device name from discovery;
* the app-name and app-id tiers (media_player.app_name/app_id + the shared
resolve_app_name chain, the Current App sensor, the sensor's state-change
listener and its `_androidtv_state` helper) — the manager's store is the only
source;
* the "transitional external entity" command tier in every path: `_cmd` and the
pan-media_player service call are gone, and so is the fallback in _media_cmd,
_remote_key_cmd, the §7 channel-digit sequence and the intent self-heal retry
(an intent no transport served now surrenders to the truth instead of
delegating);
* the entity-derived power signal (`_on_source_change`'s "device off clears the
intent" check no longer watches another integration's entity; the power
LADDER — protocol is_on → ADB wake → power switch — is unchanged).
turn_on/turn_off are native now: they send the protocol POWER key and, like the
remote entity, send nothing when the known state already matches (no superfluous
toggle). An ADB-only entry (protocol skipped) has no power write path — the
manager owns the socket and exposes no device-keyevent, which is what the old
delegation used to cover.
helpers.discover_adb_host — the one helper that derived a host from another
integration's config entry — is deleted; button.py (granted to this task) reads
the entry's own address fields instead of the entity, so the Pair ADB button
keeps working.
Present-day entries that still carry the key are unaffected (nothing reads it);
the v3 migration that drops it lands with the host unification.
Verified: 309 passed / 2 skipped, 310 / 1 with androidtvremote2, ruff clean,
drift engine exit 0 on HEAD (13 modules, 58 imports, 35 call arguments, 6
awaited HA calls) and 16 passed in the real-HA drift suite. The stub harness's
legacy service recorder became a watchdog: any HA service call from the media
player now fails the routing tests instead of being the expected outcome.
Reported from a live install: with ADB enabled but unreachable and a paired,
healthy protocol transport, the media player went unavailable even though the
protocol still served power/app/volume.
The old rule was ``manager.connected or manager.awake is not None or not
manager.available`` — i.e. "a configured ADB manager that is down ⇒ the whole
entity is down" (t5-F2), which ignored transport B entirely. The ladder is now:
* protocol transport wired and not reported unreachable — usable;
* or ADB connected — usable;
* or fresh wake data (the poller has spoken) — usable;
* or a passive manager (no ADB configured at all) — usable, because nothing to
transport is not a broken transport.
Unavailable only when a CONFIGURED transport is actively down and no usable data
exists. One implementation, ``entity_available`` (media_player.py), is used by the
media player, the remote (whose ladder previously duplicated a weaker version of
this rule) and the diagnostics payload.
Diagnostics grew ``transport.entity_available`` plus ``adb.configured`` so a
support dump answers "why is my entity unavailable?" — the ladder inputs and its
verdict are now in the same place.
Pinned by tests: the exact user case (ADB configured+down, protocol up ⇒
available), all-down (⇒ unavailable), wake-data rescue, connected ADB without a
protocol, the passive manager, a configured-but-down transport with no data, the
remote following the same ladder, and the diagnostics verdict.
Verified: 310 passed / 2 skipped, 311 passed / 1 skipped (androidtvremote2),
16 passed in the HA drift suite, ruff clean.
Reported from a live install: the sensor showed ``ar.tvplayer.tv`` while the
media player showed "TiviMate" — the same foreground app, two identities.
The sensor's ``native_value`` returned ``manager.foreground_app`` (the raw
package push) or ``running_apps[0]["package"]`` as-is, while the media player
resolved names through apps map → cached manifest label → androidtv entity tier.
Both now call ONE function, ``resolve_app_name`` (media_player.py), so the two
entities cannot disagree again; the sensor keeps the raw package as its
``app_id`` attribute and ``app_name`` carries the shown name.
Per the contract:
* apps map wins, then the cached manifest label, then the androidtv entity's
``app_name``, then the package text itself;
* a bare or unknown package falls back to the package text, NOT None (it used to
be possible for the value to vanish while the app was plainly running);
* pinned by tests: map tier, label tier, entity tier, the ADB-recents source, the
unknown-package fallback, and sensor == media player for the same inputs.
Verified: 302 passed / 2 skipped, ruff clean.
`homeassistant.util.diagnostic` does not exist — verified against a real
install: `import homeassistant.util.diagnostic` raises ModuleNotFoundError, and
the helper has always lived in `homeassistant.helpers.redact`. The import sat
inside a `try/except ImportError` that set the helper to None, so the
documented G14 pass — the one carrying `_TO_REDACT`, hosts included — silently
did nothing; only the marker scan (pairing-/key-shaped names) masked anything,
which is why the existing test's pairing-code assertion stayed green.
The helper is now imported at MODULE scope from homeassistant.helpers.redact and
applied unconditionally after the marker-name pass. A missing module is a loud
import error at integration load instead of a silent downgrade.
* the diagnostics test now asserts `adb_host` and `protocol_host` really are
masked in the emitted payload (options and a nested data value);
* TestFaithfulHaStubs asserts the module USES the helper from that path
(`nsh.diagnostics.async_redact_data is homeassistant.helpers.redact.async_redact_data`),
that no production module imports the non-existent module (AST), and that the
try/except ImportError fallback is gone;
* `entity_stublib` gains a faithful `homeassistant.helpers.redact` stub (same
masking, same nested mapping/list recursion, same None/empty-string skip) so
the harness meets the import the way a real install does.
Verified: 287 passed, 2 skipped (D2 stage); ruff clean. Full gate re-run on the
completed branch: 289 passed / 2 skipped and 290 passed / 1 skipped.
`homeassistant.components.media_player` has not exported `BrowseMediaSource`
for years: the class lives in `homeassistant.components.media_source.models`,
where it exists to build `media_source://<domain>` ids and is the only place a
`domain` parameter belongs (t30 G18's note was about THAT class). The local
import therefore raised ImportError, and with it every real browse failed —
while the suite stayed green because the harness stubbed a `BrowseMediaSource`
that real HA does not expose from there.
`async_browse_media` now builds the standard tree exactly as core's own
androidtv_remote/media_player.py does: `BrowseMedia` imported from
homeassistant.components.media_player at module scope, every node carrying an
explicit media_content_id/media_content_type (MediaType.APP/APPS),
`children_media_class=MediaClass.APP` on the directory, and no `domain`.
Verified against a real install: the old import raises ImportError, the old
`domain=` kwarg raises TypeError, and the new node constructs.
The harness is now faithful so this cannot hide again:
* `entity_stublib` exposes a `BrowseMedia` with the real keyword-only
signature, `as_dict()` and `calculate_children_class()`, plus `MediaType`,
and deliberately NOT `BrowseMediaSource` — so both the drifted import and the
drifted kwarg fail in-suite;
* the app-directory test asserts the standard shape (classes, explicit ids and
types, children_media_class, the serialised payload) instead of the removed
`domain` attribute;
* TestFaithfulHaStubs pins the harness contract on the AST (no production
module imports BrowseMediaSource) rather than on prose.
Verified: 284 passed, 2 skipped (D1 stage); ruff clean. Full gate re-run on the
completed branch: 289 passed / 2 skipped and 290 passed / 1 skipped.
