AutoSnooze

Temporarily pause Home Assistant automations with automatic re-enabling. Snooze an automation, it comes back on its own. No more forgotten disabled automations cluttering your setup.

---

Why?

Motion lights keep turning off during dinner. Wake-up routines fire while you're on vacation. You disable something for maintenance and forget about it for three months. AutoSnooze lets you pause automations with a timer so they always come back.

---

What it does

• Filter by Area, Label, or name to find automations fast
• Preset durations — 30m, 1h, 4h, 1 day, or custom
• Live countdown timers on every snoozed automation
• Survives restarts — timers persist through reboots and power outages
• Wake early — cancel individual snoozes or wake everything at once
• Schedule mode — snooze until a specific date/time
• Adjust on the fly — extend or shorten active snoozes
• Critical guards — auto-detects security/safety automations and asks for confirmation
• Sensor entity — sensor.autosnooze_snoozed_automations for use in other automations and dashboards

Dashboard Card

Add to any Lovelace dashboard:

type: custom:autosnooze-card
title: AutoSnooze

The only option is title (string, defaults to AutoSnooze).

Filtering with Labels

You can control which automations show up in the card using HA labels:

• autosnooze_include — Whitelist mode. If any automation has this label, only those automations appear.
• autosnooze_exclude — Blacklist mode. Hides automations with this label.
• autosnooze_confirm — Requires confirmation before snoozing.

If no automations have autosnooze_include, the card shows everything except autosnooze_exclude ones.

To set up, go to Settings → Labels, create the label, then assign it to automations.

Critical Automation Guardrails

AutoSnooze auto-detects critical automations based on keywords in their entity ID or name:

alarm, security, siren, lock, smoke, carbon monoxide, co2, leak, flood, fire, gas

These require confirmation before snoozing. You can also manually flag any automation with the autosnooze_confirm label. For service calls, pass confirm: true to acknowledge.

Troubleshooting

Card not appearing

The card should register automatically. If it doesn't:

1. Clear browser cache and hard refresh (Ctrl+Shift+R)
2. Check Settings → Dashboards → Resources for the autosnooze entry
3. If missing, manually add /autosnooze-card.js as a JavaScript module

YAML mode dashboards need the resource added manually:

lovelace:
  mode: yaml
  resources:
    - url: /autosnooze-card.js
      type: module

Automations not re-enabling

1. Check Developer Tools → States for the sensor state
2. Verify Home Assistant hasn't restarted during the snooze
3. Check logs: Settings → System → Logs

Card shows "Integration not found"

Make sure AutoSnooze is configured in Settings → Devices & Services.
