## What it is
A Home Assistant integration that simulates occupancy while you are away by replaying historical on/off states of lights, switches, covers, and other entities from the recorder database. It repeats entity states from a configurable number of days ago, including light brightness and color attributes when recorded.

## Use cases
- simulate presence at home while on vacation
- replay historical light and switch states to deter burglars
- make a house look occupied by turning lights on and off automatically
- replay past brightness and color temperature of lights
- automate entity states based on Home Assistant history

## When to choose
- you use Home Assistant and want an occupancy simulation based on your real usage history
- you want a HACS-installable integration with configurable delta days
- you want to replay light attributes like brightness and rgb color

## When to avoid
- you do not use Home Assistant
- you need presence simulation without the history/recorder integrations enabled
- you need random or scripted schedules rather than history-based replay
