6-6: Ensure Capitalization Consistency inha_category
The new entry"Binary sensor"in theha_categorylist should be reviewed for capitalization consistency with related references (e.g."Binary Sensor"in the Provided Entities section). Consider standardizing the capitalization if supported by documentation guidelines.
46-48: Enhance the Binary Sensor Documentation Section
The new section titled "Binary Sensor" succinctly explains that a binary sensor is created for each configured point on the alarm. For better clarity and guidance, consider expanding this section with additional configuration details, usage examples, or any unique behavior associated with these sensors.

4-6: Ensure Consistent Category Naming
The new category entry "Binary sensor" is added next to "Alarm". For consistency with the existing entry ("Alarm"), consider capitalizing it as "Binary Sensor" if that aligns with your documentation style.
46-48: Enhance Binary Sensor Documentation Details
The newly added "Binary Sensor" section explains that a binary sensor is added for each configured alarm point, which is a good start. For improved clarity, consider expanding this section with further details on sensor states, configuration options, and usage examples. This additional context would benefit end users integrating the feature.

The addition of "binary_sensor" to theha_platformssection is correctly placed. Please double-check that the integration logic fully supports this new platform type.
38-40: Confirm Anchor Link Accuracy for Provided Entities
The provided entities section now includes a link for "Binary Sensor". Ensure that the anchor (#binary-sensor) correctly maps to the new "Binary Sensor" section added later in the document.

6-6: New Category Addition:
The addition of "Binary sensor" to theha_categorylist is a clear and appropriate way to denote the expanded functionality of the Bosch Alarm integration. Please verify that the capitalization and naming conventions match the rest of the documentation for consistency.
46-49: New Binary Sensor Documentation:
The newly added "Binary Sensor" section explains that a binary sensor is created for each configured point on the alarm. This concise description is effective; however, consider expanding on details such as sensor behavior or state transitions for added clarity.
68-70: Examples Section Added:
The addition of an "Examples" section with the subheading "Turning on lights when walking into a room" enhances the documentation by showing a real-world automation scenario. A brief introductory sentence before the YAML snippet could provide additional context for users new to this feature.
72-93: Automation YAML Example Validation:
The YAML automation example under the{% raw %}block demonstrates how to use the binary sensor trigger effectively. Please verify that the trigger configuration adheres to Home Assistant's standards—typically, state triggers useplatform: staterather thantrigger: state. Clarifying this in the documentation might help avoid confusion.

The example provided for turning on lights when entering a room enhances the documentation. However, the YAML snippet uses the keystriggers:(line 79) andactions:(line 84). Standard Home Assistant automation configurations typically use the singular keystrigger:andaction:even when specifying multiple items. For example, consider the following diff:- triggers: + trigger: - actions: + action:Please verify this against the Home Assistant documentation and update the snippet accordingly to avoid potential user confusion.

78-86: YAML Example Key Naming Consistency
The YAML snippet in the Examples section effectively demonstrates an automation using the new binary sensor. One point to note: the snippet usestriggers:whereas Home Assistant documentation conventionally usestrigger:to define the list of triggers. This was similarly flagged in past reviews. Please verify if this is intentional or if it should be updated for consistency with standard automation schemas.

4-6: Binary Sensor Category Naming
The addition of “Binary sensor” to theha_categorylist effectively documents the new feature. However, note the inconsistency in capitalization compared to the entity’s label later (which is “Binary Sensor”). For clarity and consistency, consider aligning the capitalization.
38-39: Inclusion of Binary Sensor in Provided Entities
The new bullet linking to “Binary Sensor” in the Provided entities section is well placed. Again, ensure that the naming (capitalization) remains consistent across the document for better user clarity.
46-51: Binary Sensor Section Clarity
The newly added “## Binary Sensor” section is a valuable addition. However, the two descriptive lines—one stating “A binary sensor is added for each point configured on your alarm” and the other “A binary sensor is added for each area that lets you know if the area is currently able to be armed away or armed home”—seem somewhat redundant or ambiguous. Please clarify whether binary sensors are created per alarm “point” or per “area” (or if both apply, explain the distinction). Additionally, consider rewording “able to be armed away or armed home” to something more direct (for example, “indicates whether the area can be armed away or at home”) to improve readability.🧰 Tools

The YAML snippet in the Examples section still uses the keytriggers:, whereas the Home Assistant standard expectstrigger:when defining automation triggers.

49-53: Enhance Binary Sensor Section Clarity
The "Binary Sensor" section effectively outlines the new functionality. To improve clarity and readability, consider rephrasing the second sentence to use active voice and streamline the language. For example:- A binary sensor is added for each area that lets you know if the area is currently able to be armed away or armed home. + A binary sensor is added for each area to indicate whether it can be armed away or armed home.This change makes the intent clearer and reduces passive phrasing.
