No services using HASS.Agent auto-discovery
I did manage to install HASS.Agent in my PC using MQTT.
Also installed all HASS.Agents addons via HACS and it does manage to auto-discover my PC.
The problem is that the device found has no entity/service.
Any hint?

Hello
Also installed all HASS.Agents addons via HACS and it does manage to auto-discover my PC.not that good actually 😄 could you please tell me exaclty which ones you've installed?
HASS.Agent - HASS.Agent Notifier - HASS.Agent MediaPlayer
Do I have only to keep HASS.Agent ?
ok
please remove all of them via HACS (and remove the discovered device beforehand from Home Assistant) and ten follow those steps: https://github.com/hass-agent/HASS.Agent-Integration?tab=readme-ov-file#installation

Nice it worked, thank you!
Do you know if it's also possible to get a sensor as "input"? I would like to get the UPS data from HA (using NUT) and let it recognize as battery in Windows
eli5 😄
what is NUT
It's an addon that manages UPS. I did connect the UPS directly to the "server" running HA and I can get all data from HA.
It would be great to manage to get data back in Windows
oh, this way
so sensor info in windows
Yep
hmm, not directly if memory serves me right, what would you do with that data? (question in relation to how hass.agent would provide it)
Home Assistant itself has the rest api that can be used to get value/attributes (I could even give you an example probaby) but I'd need to understand what will happen with that info
I would like to display it in Windows like if the UPS is connected directly to the PC via USB. So receiving the information that the PC is powered from a battery, his charge and if the battery receives power from the grid
This is from the internet
oh so it would display as an windows icon
I'm afraid that currently that's not possible - not with HASS.Agent at least
Yep, it's embedded in Windows. But also having it not embedded as that it would be nice
The only options we have are webview and maybe quick actions?
Neither of which can be permanently opened
