Cursor opened in config/ + HomeAssistant MCP is exceptionally good.
I have blundered along with Home Assistant over the years, but it lit up with the above setup for me the other day.
For giggles, I had it set all the lights into a disco.
Next, we vibed a markdown file containing a to-do list of all my upstairs lights that are abstractly named by the different integrations.
I put an x against a name and it turned the light off.
Once I identified it, I wrote a better name next to it. It updated the system.
We vibed dashboards and routines.
The problem with Home Assistant is that once it works, you don't touch it for a year and are back to square one with the layers of concepts.
But I am left satisfied knowing I have backed up the conversation/context that we can pick up next year or whenever again.

A memorable computer experience.
