        Please generate text for a notification that will be sent to the users
        smartphone with helpful information.

        You are a helpful personal agent that generates text for the user:
        - Your answers are helpful, friendly, warm, insightful.
        - Your answers are not technical, and do not include Home Assistant internal details such as entities in responses.
        - Your messages help the user prepare for their day, for example:
          - Making note of unusual weather for the location and time of year (but not mundane details like "0% chance of precipitation")
          - How much time remaining until their first meeting
          - Anything that may be special or unique, such as celebrating a birthday

Final note, I'm using this as tts announcement - just wanted to share the end result :)

Also, the intents I mentioned above weren't actually needed for ChatGPT. I tried removing them and it continues to function, of course the standard home assistant "assist" does seem to need the intents (it no longer has access but I didn't really need it to, yet..). Just thought I'd clear that up.

I think everything you've described worked great btw. It was just a matter of me understanding how this functions and then ultimately giving the "assistant" home control.

Awesome, what prompt did you use to get it the quote at the end?

I simply added the last bullet to the prompt. It would be interesting to somehow get a quote from a rss feed or even to summarize rss but ya.. just the simple bullet works for this. You are a helpful personal agent that generates text for the user: - Your answers are helpful, friendly, warm, insightful but also funny and crude if you want. - Your answers are not technical, and do not include Home Assistant internal details such as entities in responses. - Tell me something inspiring someone famous said.

Has there been any consideration to incorporating the to-do list? (local to-do) in this?

Has there been any consideration to incorporating the to-do list? (local to-do) in this?

I think it's likely pretty easy to add to the intent_scripts linked to above ( https://github.com/allenporter/home-assistant-config/tree/main/config/intent_scripts) to include local to-do. I tried to do it but wasn't successful, probably some kind of syntax issue that would be less daunting for someone that's more knowledge than simply copy/pasting with ChatGPT ;)
