+# NestQuest brand icons in Home Assistant
+
+## Where the icon comes from
+
+Since Home Assistant 2026.3, a custom integration can ship its own brand
+images in `custom_components//brand/`, and Home Assistant serves them
+ahead of the brands CDN (`brands.home-assistant.io`). NestQuest ships:
+
+| File | Size |
+|------|------|
+| `custom_components/nestquest/brand/icon.png` | 256×256 |
+| `custom_components/nestquest/brand/icon@2x.png` | 512×512 |
+| `custom_components/nestquest/brand/logo.png` | 256×256 |
+| `custom_components/nestquest/brand/logo@2x.png` | 512×512 |
+
+HACS installs the whole `custom_components/nestquest/` directory, so these
+images arrive with the integration. On Home Assistant 2026.3 or newer they
+appear on the integrations page and the integration tile, through Home
+Assistant's brand endpoint. Older Home Assistant versions ignore the directory
+and show the generic placeholder icon.
+
+The `custom_integrations` folder of the `home-assistant/brands` repository is
+legacy for this purpose; NestQuest does not depend on it.
+
+## Known caveat: the HACS store card
+
+The HACS store card (the repository listing inside HACS, shown before and
+after installing) is rendered by HACS itself, not by the integration. It may
+still take its image from the brands CDN or fall back to the avatar of the
+repository owner (the `Maniacs-Mansion` organization). Whether HACS reads the
+local `brand/` directory for that card has not been verified, so that icon
+may stay generic. The repository page inside HACS shows the README, which
+embeds the logo from `design/logos/NestQuest-NoBG.png`.
+
+## Regenerating
+
+The PNGs are generated offline and deterministically (pure Node, zlib only)
+from `design/logos/NestQuest-NoBG.png`, box-filter downscaled with
+transparency kept. From the repository root:
+
+```bash
+node design/logos/generate-brand-icons.mjs # write the four PNGs
+node design/logos/generate-brand-icons.mjs --check # exit 1 if any drifted
+```
+
+`tests/test_brand_icons.py` runs the `--check` and asserts the four files
+exist with the expected sizes, so a missing or hand-edited image fails the
+test suite.
