Logitech Harmony commands based on activity

Configuration

I made an appdaemon app that does that. Let me tell you, it’s complicated. After creating it, I can tell you that there is no easy way do accomplish your request.

Here’s the appdeamon app, I haven’t added it to hacs yet, but it’s set up pretty much. Just no documentation yet.

and here’s my configuration for it at the moment for appdaemon:
