This is what I created.
This automation blueprint triggers actions when one or more selected people enter or leave a specific zone, such as home, work, or school. You can fine-tune when it runs using flexible time filters:

*Anytime
*Daytime (06:00–18:00)
Nighttime (18:00–06:00)
Specific Time Range (e.g., 08:00–12:00)

Inputs:

  • Person(s)
  • Zone
  • Event Type: Enter or Leave
  • Time Filter: When the automation should trigger
  • Actions to perform

Hello shivam-yadav,
Welcome to the Home Assistant Forum!

Thanks for contributing to the community with a new Blueprint.

I have a suggestion for you. Many people who are not familiar with directory structures will have problems installing this without the Home Assistant MY tools.
Adding a MY link for this Blueprint to your top post would help them a lot.

Here is the link to make that.
