Hi all,
I recently updated to 2026.02 and some of my automations started misbehaving or stopped working altogether. I went down the rabit hole of troubleshooting integrations and checking the logs for a few days, to no avail, until I finally checked the helpers, only to find that a lot of them seem to be “broken” (and the 3+ days thing is on me, but my current reality is that I no longer have a backup from when they were still working).
When I say “appear” broken, this is how my UI looks:
There is no tooltip with what the error is and when I click on the red thing I get the helper info but without the option to delete it:
Interestingly enough, the “preview” does show the state / expected value. But the sensor itself is unavailable:
I don’t mind deleting and recreating them, but for the life of me I could not figure out how to delete any of them … 
The logs do not show any errors when searching for the sensor, nor for “helpers” , nor for the type of helper (for example 'switch_as_x")
I could not find any pattern, most of them are pretty simple, they are not related to the same integration or anything like this, I could not find any related defect on git …
If anyone has any idea how to at least delete them, this would be much appreciated … or ideas how to figure out what possibly broke it 
I did have the Labs enabled - and disabled them to see if this would do anything - it did not
