We list pairing, control, automation triggers and automation actions as Unknown rather than guessing. Unknown is a valid answer: a capability is only marked confirmed when a dated source shows it for this device type on this platform.

Requirements

Hub requirement: Home Assistant Matter Server (HA OS recommended). Thread border router for Thread devices.

Matter spec: 1.3+.

Confidence

The evidence is a mix of official platform documentation and product- or community-level reports; some answers rest on documentation alone.
