NestQuest - House Chaos Coordination
Home Assistant custom integration for managing chores, custody schedules, and house coordination.
Overview
NestQuest helps households coordinate daily life, chore tracking, custody schedules, and shared tasks directly within Home Assistant. Version 0.1.0 is the integration foundation: a configuration scaffold providing the package and manifest, shared constants, a single-instance config flow, setup/unload lifecycle handling with an options-reload listener, an options flow (horizon days, day rollover time, panel idle timeout), SQLite storage-path resolution, and HACS metadata. Sensors, calendar events, and service calls are forthcoming in later releases and are not yet part of the integration.
