I have two automations in mind that will both require the Start Conversation option. But I’m at a loss as to how to tell the automation what to do after the answer is provided.
-
When I arrive home, the automation will check my “return home” task list. If there are any items on the list, I want the VPE in my garage to announce that it “has a message for Don” and ask if Don is there. If the response is yes, then it’ll read out loud the items from the list. If the response is no, then the automation would just end. If there is no response, then wait 1 minute and ask again. Continue the process until one of those conditions is met.

I want to use HA to create an alarm clock – that will guarantee that I actually wake up. On multiple occasions, my alarm has gone off and while still half-asleep, I turned the alarm off and went back to sleep. I want the LLM to pick two random, single-digit numbers and tell me to add them together. If I tell it the right answer, it’ll cancel the alarm. Five minutes later, if the motion sensor in the hallway hasn’t picked up motion, the alarm will go off again and the only way to cancel it will be to press a button on the dashboard in the hallway.
I know how to do all of that EXCEPT for the parts surrounding the start conversation and letting the automation know what to do next.
