Quick update on my unofficial HA integration for Sofabaton hubs.

The headline feature: fully local backup and restore, working across X1, X1S and X2. Back up an entire hub, restore it whole, or cherry-pick individual devices out of a backup and drop them into another hub. No cloud, no app, no account, it all happens between HA and the hub on your LAN.

Other features:

• 💻 Sensors, buttons, selects, remote — make your own UIs and automations. Send commands, receive status updates
• 📡 Wifi Commands — trigger HA Actions from physical remote button presses
• 💾 IR Blobs — capture, test, save and share the hub's real IR payloads
• 🕹️ Two dashboard cards — Virtual Remote (mirrors your physical remote in HA) + Control Panel (backup, blobs, wifi commands, live logs, cache nav)

The integration has:

• 🧠 Full protocol schema implementation under the hood — no more guesswork
• ⚙️ Persistent cache so hub data survives HA restarts
• 📝 Good documentation for networking, hub protocol, integration features
• 🌐 A built in proxy, so the integration can share its hub-connection with the Sofabaton app, allowing both to be connected at the same time
