<p dir="auto">While scanning the docs, saw <a href="https://developers.home.google.com/reference/kotlin/com/google/home/matter/standard/GenericSwitchDevice" rel="nofollow ugc">Generic Switch Device</a> is now a supported device type which I understand has always been the blocker for Google Home having a 1st party integration.</p>
<p dir="auto">Any chance of integrating with the Home APIs, given the "Flic is a Matter Controller first" direction? Adding support for the <a href="https://developers.home.google.com/apis/automation/supported-traits" rel="nofollow ugc">Automation API</a> at the very least would be highly appreciated as the Switch trait trigger support look fairly robust (currentPosition attribute seemingly supports Flic Twist) and would enable exclusive use cases like broadcasting to Nest speakers.</p>
<p dir="auto">While other stuff like Commissioning API/Fast Pair on Android would be nice, understand why that's more of a commitment/stretch given Flic's stated direction of being more independent.</p>
<p dir="auto">Appreciate in advance any comment you can give. Thanks.</p>
