Hello,

to use the new matterhub with zwave-js and alexa follow this steps:

Install matterhub:

Add this in the addon store under repositories.

After installing start it and and open the user interface.

Add a bridge

Include
Type: platform
Value: zwave_js

Save

Sometimes a restart of the intergration is necessary or home assistant or your alexa device.

In the addon under protocol you can find a qr-code.

The qr-code from the matterhub page doesnot work for me.

Go to alexa, add a new device, choose other and look for matter, scan your qr-code. Accept that it is not certified. Wait. After round about one minute you see your devices

Came across your post and setup this add-on. It is a really nice one. I was able to connect couple of non-Matter devices to Alexa app as Matter devices using this add-on. Thanks for the write up.

Hello,
to exclude binary.sensors and other entities take pattern under exclude
and type in value for example: binary.sensor.* or light.* etc.
Then save it.

Sensors you will not control with your speech (binary.sensor or light from zwave) will be not shown in the alexa app.

Best regards.
