#500 gave `_serverCfg` and `_layout` prototype accessors but left them in
`static properties`. Lit marks such a property `wrapped` and, on the FIRST
update, force-writes it into `changedProperties` with an `undefined` old
value even though nobody assigned anything (`reactive-element.js:249-252`
and `:880-886`). `willUpdate` reads that as a config replacement, raises
`_cfgEpoch`, the memoized model key changes, and a 60-room house builds and
paints its model a second time: measured 19 update cycles, 4 builds and 4
epochs against 18 / 3 / 3 before #500, worth ~550 ms of `modelReadyMs` and
the same on `firstStableRenderMs` (3355 against a 3000 ceiling).
The declaration goes; the bodies stay reactive through the owner —
`_adoption` → `onBodyReplaced` → `requestUpdate(field, previous)` — which
needs no declaration: `getPropertyOptions` falls back to the default and
`changed.has('_serverCfg')` works as before. `noAccessor: true` would not
help, `wrapped` is set before that flag is read. The trap is written above
`static properties`, where someone would put the declaration back.
`cache.entries.cleanFloor` returns to 100 in both interaction budgets: the
120 entries were the extra epoch re-keying the per-room cache, not a
property of the design — the reasoning in 914e8402 was wrong.
Witness: test/config-adoption-ownership.test.mjs pins that neither body is
declared; the mutant `adoption-bodies-declared-reactive` puts the
declaration back and reddens it.
The boot diagnostics of the previous three commits touch four private
members, so they are declared in the performance contract: `_buildModel` and
`_cfgEpoch` outright (both exist in every supported comparison base), and the
adoption entry point as a current/legacy pair — #500 turned the private
`_adoptStructuralResponses` into the public `_adoptAuthoritative`, and an
undeclared rename would have the counter report zero adoptions instead of
failing.
The same commits carried a `node_modules` symlink: `.gitignore` had the
pattern with a trailing slash, which does not cover a symbolic link, and
`git add -A` in a sandbox worktree committed it. The link is removed and the
pattern loses the slash; a mutant run on this branch failed with `EEXIST` on
it.

🏠 House Plan — a live home map for Home Assistant
📘 Full user guide · 🇷🇺 Русский · 🗂 Project issues
Your whole home at a glance
House Plan turns Home Assistant into a live map of your home. Open the dedicated House Plan item in the Home Assistant sidebar, upload a plan or draw rooms, bind them to Home Assistant areas, and the area's devices appear automatically. You can immediately see where a light is on, a door is open, a room is too cold, Zigbee signal is weak, or a leak sensor has fired.
Setup is entirely graphical: no floor-plan YAML, Inkscape, or external editor. Plan data and device positions live on the Home Assistant server and stay in sync across screens.
Edit on a desktop computer. View and kiosk are fully supported on phones and tablets. The editors are designed primarily for a mouse and keyboard; individual touch editing operations may be awkward or unavailable. See the exact touch support contract.
What House Plan provides
- Live state and safe actions. Lights and other safe devices can toggle from the plan; a lock cannot be opened by an accidental plan tap.
- Three built-in editors. Plan creates rooms, walls and openings; Device places and configures markers; Background adds lines, labels and furniture.
- Area-aware rooms. New devices appear automatically, while room cards can show temperature, humidity, light state and average LQI.
- Light and environment. Room fills, lamp Glow, wall shadows, a day-cycle backdrop and sunlight through windows.
- Doors, windows, gates and vacuums. Openings follow real contacts and locks; a robot can show its position, dock and travelled path.
- Several floors and screens. Space tabs, swipe navigation, local viewport, and a separate initial floor for each card.
- Wall-display kiosk. A plan-only view with fullscreen navigation and icon sizes saved for that display.
Your first working room
- Install the integration and open House Plan in the Home Assistant sidebar.
- Create the first space: upload SVG/PNG/JPG/WebP, reuse an uploaded image, or choose no image and draw the plan by hand.
- In Plan, select Room outline, place vertices, and click the first point to close the outline.
- Name the room and bind it to a Home Assistant area. Use “No area” for a room that has no devices.
- Open Device: devices from the bound area are already placed; drag their markers to the correct positions.
- Optionally use Background for lines, text and furniture.
- Return to View. The plan now displays live state and accepts safe actions.
Every workflow and edge case is in the full user guide. The Background editor contract and vacuum guide are the authorities for those subsystems.
Installation
HACS
House Plan is in the HACS default catalog — no custom repository needed.
- In HACS search for House Plan and install it.
- Restart Home Assistant.
- Open Settings → Devices & services → Add integration → House Plan.
The sidebar page and optional dashboard cards are registered automatically.
After installing or updating House Plan,
restart Home Assistant and fully reload the page: Ctrl+F5 on Windows/Linux or
Cmd+Shift+R on macOS.
Storage mode (Home Assistant default)
No YAML is normally needed. If automatic registration did not make the card
available, open Settings → Dashboards → menu ⋮ → Resources → Add
resource, enter /houseplan_files/houseplan-card.js, and select JavaScript
module.
YAML resources mode (Home Assistant 2026.2+)
To manage resources in configuration.yaml independently of the dashboard
mode, use:
lovelace:
resource_mode: yaml
resources:
- url: /houseplan_files/houseplan-card.js
type: module
Legacy Home Assistant 2024.6–2026.1
Only for a full-YAML dashboard that is already managed in YAML, use:
lovelace:
mode: yaml
resources:
- url: /houseplan_files/houseplan-card.js
type: module
mode: yaml changes the dashboard itself to YAML mode. Do not switch a storage
dashboard to legacy YAML just for House Plan; use the Storage mode instructions
above instead. Do not use the on-disk path inside custom_components; Home
Assistant does not serve that path as a JavaScript module.
Manual installation
Copy the complete custom_components/houseplan release folder to
config/custom_components, restart Home Assistant, and add the House Plan
integration. Do not copy only houseplan-card.js: the card also uses an
internal manifest and content-hashed modules from the same release.
Open House Plan
After the integration is added, open House Plan in the Home Assistant sidebar. This full-page view is the primary entry point and needs no dashboard or YAML setup. It remembers the last space but always returns from another HA page in View rather than reopening an editor. Users without editing permission see the same live plan without editor controls.
If the sidebar entry cannot be registered, the integration and existing dashboard cards continue to work; check Settings → System → Repairs → System information → House Plan after restarting and hard-refreshing HA.
Optional dashboard card
Add the card only when House Plan must be embedded in a dashboard. In a Sections view it requests full width by default, while a manual size chosen in HA remains authoritative. Add it in the UI or as:
type: custom:houseplan-card
title: House plan
Different screens may start on different spaces:
type: custom:houseplan-card
default_floor: ground
All cards share server-side rooms and coordinates. Current mode, viewport and selected space remain local to the screen. Revision checks and live sync cover concurrent clients, but avoid editing the same object in two browsers at once.
