A Homebridge Roomba plugin ported to Home Assistant
With a lot of help from Claude, a user ported the only Homebridge iRobot plugin that worked with his cheap Roomba into a direct Home Assistant integration.

The full story
No Home Assistant integration would connect to the poster's cheap Roomba (Y051042), though a Homebridge plugin by taurgis worked. With a lot of help from Claude he ported that plugin to Home Assistant: you enter your iRobot login and it finds the robot's BLID and password.
He says it isn't a finished, polished integration and has only been tested on his model.
