Leftover unstaged state from the parallel 09-02 sessions: delete questions-v1/v2, HomeAssistant/needfromcharles.md, night-grind-plan.md (content lives in questions-09022206.md / questions-v3.md / git history); drop superseded UniFi API-key ask (#619 multicast fix made it moot). Details: https://projects.knownelement.com/issues/344#note-3911
HomeAssistant/ — pfv-bms operational notes
Config source of truth: KNEL/pfv-bms
(private). Everything live (YAML, dashboards, packages) is deployed by
pushing that repo — the core_git_pull add-on on pfv-bms polls every 300s,
pulls, and auto-restarts Home Assistant on config changes.
