Listening for Lutron Caseta button presses

I’ve found several helpful libraries for configuring custom responses to Lutron Pico Remote button presses, but I haven’t found a way to listen for a press on an in-wall Lutron Caseta switch. Is this possible?

The wall switches don’t expose button presses. The feature is often requested, but not doable with the current APIs according to the devs. This is my biggest complaint about Caseta.

There is no way to detect what button was pressed, or if it was a single, double or long press.

All you can do is track light state, on/off state, brightness states, etc.

Bummer. How about single, double, or long presses on the Caseta remotes? I found Switch Manager which seems like a nice tool for configuring single press, but I don’t see support for double or long press.

Search the blueprint forums. Picos don’t technically expose different presses, but there are some blueprints that support different press types in HA code.

I wrote template sensor code to do the same, but don’t really care to share. The code gives me a headache, the blueprints are much easier.
