    Someone broke through the chain link fence last week, in broad daylight, while I was home, and didn't notice at the time.

    I started thinking about what I could do about it, and it turns out the EA Unifi cameras have a new webhook feature. So now my cameras send a webhook to Home Assistant when someone crosses a virtual line, and it will trigger the siren. Since this is a line crossing event, not generic person detection, I can leave it armed 24/7, since nobody should be in that area at all.

    ok I think I just got my Home Assistant set up with Matter and Thread using the SkyConnect USB dongle and I have to say this is way more complicated than it should be and those names are terrible. I hope this gets smoothed out in the next couple years!

    I just got to scare the crap out of some kids who were climbing around my construction site by triggering a 12v siren from Home Assistant, and watched the whole thing on the remote camera feed! It was oddly satisfying, and I hope they get the message not to come back.
