What it does
Cca Assistant is an agent skill from hvorragend/ha-blueprints. Expert assistant for developing and debugging the Cover Control Automation (CCA) Home Assistant blueprint. Use this skill whenever the user works on the CCA YAML blueprint, asks about state logic, JSON helper structure, shading/force/resident branches, trigger conditions, template variables, or debug traces. Also trigger when reviewing code changes, writing commit messages, or discussing the priority cascade (force, lockout, base-open, vent, privacy, shading, base-close — highest to lowest). This skill captures…
Its SKILL.md is about 4.7k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 7 other files, including reference files (for example `references/architecture.md`, `references/bug-patterns.md` and `references/design-decisions.md`).
It sits in Development, covering Commit messages and Debugging. It works with Home Assistant. The repository describes itself as: Cover Control Automation is a comprehensive Home Assistant blueprint that automatically manages window coverings (roller shutters, blinds, awnings) based on time, sun position…
When your agent uses it

- Asks about state logic
- JSON helper structure

Example prompts
- “/cca-assistant”
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 83e9925. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
Tool permissions
Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Runs code
No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md (its code samples are yaml and json).
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
Links to these hosts (documentation or services it may open):
hvorragend.github.iocommunity.home-assistant.io
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Credentials
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Context cost
Cca Assistant loads about 4.7k tokens when it runs, and up to ~84k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 171 tokens; SKILL.md has 1,531 words of instructions outside code blocks.
Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.
Safety
Auto-check passed
The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.
Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.
SKILL.md
Its licence (Custom licence) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 1,531 words (~4,734 tokens).
“Cover Control Automation (CCA) is a Home Assistant YAML automation blueprint for intelligent roller shutter and blind control. It manages covers based on time schedules, brightness, sun elevation, window state, and resident presence.”
