AppDaemon not loading custom app `political_trades_monitor` despite correct config

Third party integrations AppDaemon

Description (detailed)

  • AppDaemon version: 4.5.11
  • Home Assistant version: Core 2025.7.4, Supervisor 2025.07.3, OS 16.0
  • Folder structure under /config/appdaemon/apps/:
    • apps.yaml
    • political_trades.py (with correct class PoliticalTradesMonitor(hass.Hass):)
  • Content of apps.yaml:
political_trades_monitor:
  module: political_trades
  class: PoliticalTradesMonitor
  • appdaemon.yaml includes:
apps:
  app_dir: /config/appdaemon/apps
  • Restarting the addon (Restart via UI) doesn’t trigger loading of the custom app—only hello_world appears in the logs.
New app config: hello_world
Starting apps: {'hello_world'}
  • Confirmation that file permissions and paths are correct:
    • ls -l /config/appdaemon/apps/ shows both files
    • No errors or typos in naming or indentation
  • Even manual creation of the script entry didn’t work.
  • This has blocked progress and may point to a silent omission in the loader logic.

any idea? Thanks

Hi, I’m also in the same situation i’m running on a HA Yellow and I believe that it’s somehow related to the subtlety introduced by the HA OS in a yellow box. I’ve been asking all AI of this world without any success.

BTW, I’m also running into trouble configuring Loki for the exact same reason. Somehow both Loki and AppDaemon does not seem to read the HA config files in /config (directory mapped to /homeassistant directory).

Following this tread to see if someone find the solution
