SAFETY-44 produced THREE inert controls for this one rule, each inert differently, and split the two remaining fixes out rather than ship them unmeasured. This is that card, and the first thing it did was explain why the end-to-end route could never have worked. ⚠️ `moved_to` IS ONE COMPREHENSION CARRYING FIVE CONDITIONS WITH FIVE DIFFERENT REASONS TO EXIST, AND `run()` BUILDS BOTH SNAPSHOTS FROM ONE STATE FILE. So "the destination was already latched" and "the destination was made by this transition" are the same file answering two incompatible questions: the arrangement that reaches one forecloses the other. That is why rebuilding a fixture to reach clause N kept moving the others, and it is not a fixture problem. ⭐ SO THE RULE IS GRADED WHERE IT IS WRITTEN - `diff()` on constructed Snapshots, ONE CASE PER CLAUSE. Six rows, and on the SHIPPED tree before any fix they already separated the two known defects: R1 rename (legitimate) migrated correct R2 narrowing vanished correct R3 provenance MIGRATED ⚠️ the defect R4 same value vanished correct R5 injectivity BOTH migrated ⚠️ the defect R6 machine_read vanished correct The two one-line fixes SAFETY-44 reverted are back, and R3/R5 flip while R1/R2/R4/R6 do not - so the legitimate rename is still suppressed and this is not an over-correction. ⭐ AND EACH CLAUSE REMOVAL FLIPS **EXACTLY ITS OWN ROW**, which is the acceptance criterion this card was filed with: C1 machine_read removed -> ['R6-machine-read'] C3 same value removed -> ['R4-value'] C5 off-roster removed -> ['R2-narrowing'] C6 injectivity removed -> ['R5-injectivity'] C7 provenance removed -> ['R3-provenance'] A removal that flips nothing is an unmeasured clause; a removal that flips someone else's row means the cases are not separable after all. Neither happened. ⚠️ AND M12 IS DELETED, WHICH IS THE MOST USEFUL THING THIS CARD FOUND. M12 was SAFETY-44's end-to-end control for the narrowing and it was a REAL control - red when the narrowing was removed. Adding the provenance clause disarmed it, and NO FIXTURE CAN RESTORE IT, measured both ways: with the sibling latched in its own right, C7 rejects the destination before C5 is consulted, so the mutation is reported whether or not C5 exists; making the destination transition-made means a flat latch, which makes the shipped run dirty and breaks M12's own precondition. The second half of the card's acceptance criterion - "M12 still turns red with the new clauses in" - is therefore UNSATISFIABLE, and the honest answer is to remove the control rather than keep one that has become inert. R2 measures C5 strictly better. Part 5 keeps the end-to-end coverage; discrimination lives in 5e. `state-both-latched.json` goes with it. Nothing referenced it once M12 was gone, and the first draft of that paragraph said it was "kept, because 5e's R2/R3 are derived from the arrangements it represents" - a nice sentence and not a reference. An unused fixture a comment calls load-bearing is an inert check one directory over. TWO THINGS THE DRIVER GETS RIGHT ON PURPOSE: - it is written to a TEMPDIR, not beside the tool. `checks / unit` mounts the checkout READ-ONLY, so writing into the tree works on a dev box and is `OSError: Read-only file system` in CI - green for whoever wrote it and red on every PR. Caught by running it in the check image before committing. - the TABLE stays in the test file and the driver goes into the tree under test, so a mutation to the tool cannot also move the answer it is graded against. 28/28 files pass.

GoodWe RS485 Controller — Home Assistant add-on repository
Replaces a GoodWe battery inverter's vendor controller with a local one: holds net grid exchange at zero by emulating the inverter's smart meter over RS485, and runs the monthly battery maintenance cycle the vendor box was doing.

Install
Settings → Add-ons → Add-on store → ⋮ → Repositories → add
https://gittea.kammenstraatha.duckdns.org/admin/goodwe-addon
then install GoodWe RS485 Controller.
⚠️ The repository must be PUBLIC for this to work. Home Assistant clones it
anonymously; against a private repo the store shows nothing and gives no useful
error. If it must stay private, install locally instead: copy
goodwe_controller/ into the machine's /addons/ folder, then
ha store reload — it appears as a Local add-on.
⚠️ Bump version: in goodwe_controller/config.yaml for every change.
Supervisor keys the built image by that version, so without a bump it silently
reuses the old image and your fix appears not to work — on your bench and on
every client's machine.
Requires Home Assistant OS or Supervised. Add-ons cannot be installed on HA Container or Core.
Read this first
The inverter holds its last command forever. It has no meter-timeout of its own — a controller that dies mid-command leaves the battery running until a human intervenes. Measured on real hardware: 5 kW of discharge held for 113 seconds after a controller went silent.
Three layers exist because of that, and only the third covers the Home Assistant machine itself dying:
- ESP32 watchdog — no fresh setpoint for ~30 s → command 0 W, and keep commanding it.
- Wind-down before firmware updates — 0 W written before the update starts.
- RS485 e-stop (optional) — writes 0 W after 30 s of total bus silence.
Sites sold without the e-stop must have the acknowledgement in FIELD-GUIDE.md
§10 signed.
Development
The control law and the maintenance machine are pure Python with no Home Assistant imports, so they run anywhere:
cd goodwe_controller
python3 test_control.py
python3 test_maintenance.py
Both must pass before shipping any change. To prove a check bites - the way
almost every claim in this repository was established - mutate the module and
run tools/mutation_run.sh, which clears __pycache__ first. It is not
optional: a same-size edit reverted inside one second leaves CPython reusing the
old bytecode, and the run grades code that is not there. goodwe_controller/MUTATION.md
has the mechanism, the measurement, and what the flags do not do. They are not unit-test theatre —
each assertion corresponds to a rule whose absence produced an observed failure
on real hardware, and the comments in control.py say which.
Compatibility
Check the serial number, not the model name. Characters 6-8 of the serial are the platform tag:
| tag | platform | verdict |
|---|---|---|
ESU EMU ESA BPS BPU EMJ IJL |
105 — ES/EM/BP, AA55-era meter bus | supported |
SPB SPN |
745 — SBP G2 (GW…-SBP-20) |
no |
ESN ESC |
745 — ES G2 (GW…-ES-20) |
no |
ETU EHU BTU … |
205/745/753 — ET/EH/BT hybrids | no |
SDT DST MSU NSU … |
PV-only inverters — no battery to control | no |
A "-20" or "G2" suffix means a different platform with a different meter
protocol. The tags come from the goodwe library's PLATFORM_105_MODELS, which
is also what Home Assistant's own integration uses to pick a protocol.
- GoodWe ES / BP family inverters (AA55 / RS485 meter-bus generation)
- The protocol is reverse-engineered. There is no vendor contract, and a firmware change on GoodWe's side could break every installation at once. Say so when you sell it.
