The policy keeps the panel reachable and corrects master volume to 13% at 08:00 and after Home Assistant or kiosk startup; while the household is asleep or away, the Dim screensaver goes dark instead of using unreliable true panel-off. A Frigate Driveway alert wakes both kiosks and holds the live Driveway feed until occupancy clears or the ten-minute safety limit expires, below Garage and Front Door in camera priority.

| [](kiosk_tablet.yaml) | Shares Garage-then-Front-Door priority plus reusable Bedroom header/alert state while keeping each display purpose-built. The Garage view now remains active for three minutes after both doors close before either kiosk returns to its default dashboard. Bedroom retains Fully wake/drift recovery and SleepIQ screen behavior around a clock-free night-watch display; Kitchen retains its clock/forecast, rotating household context, native camera overlays, Kiosk Satellite idle dimming, and an event-driven household policy that corrects master volume to 13% at 08:00 and startup, and invokes the Dim screensaver while asleep or away. Nearby rain or lightning starts one five-minute NOAA radar takeover while the sun is above the horizon; afterward, the rotating Storms Approaching banner can replay the latest 20-minute loop while the event remains active. Actionable banner slides reuse one transient detail timer for NWS instructions, the front-door package view, a person-centered family map, open-entry details, Phyn water status with a confirmed valve-restore action, and hot-water recovery status. Sunset restores the ambient wall immediately. True idle panel-off remains disabled on the Crown LineageOS device until it has a reliable motion-wake input. Fully availability/page/app/power checks plus Kitchen connectivity, current-page, and screenshot freshness keep the Systems Kiosks tab truthful; a reachable Kitchen display remains online while stale session timestamps remain visible only in the telemetry panel. Available Kitchen updates remain advisory telemetry, while stable attention attributes preserve useful outage transitions without recording every heartbeat. At 07:00, Home Assistant requests the pending signed installer and waits two minutes for staging before dispatching Joanna to finish the Android confirmation and verify the Kitchen Show returns to its dashboard; an unsuccessful installation is retried at 07:00 the following day until the update entity confirms success.

maintenance_alert_policy=The applied deadline is a four-hour fail-safe lease, not a fixed quiet period. Before stopping Docker14, verify binary_sensor.docker_container_alerts_snoozed is on and input_datetime.docker_container_alerts_snooze_until equals maintenance_snooze_applied_until. Keep it active through all return migrations, placement and capacity checks, Docker14 startup, and dependent-service verification.
maintenance_snooze_cleanup_policy=After successful final verification, read input_datetime.docker_container_alerts_snooze_until again. If maintenance_snooze_lease_owned is true and its live value still exactly equals maintenance_snooze_applied_until, restore maintenance_snooze_previous_until only when that previous deadline is still in the future; otherwise set the helper to the current time so the snooze clears immediately. If the live value differs, is later, or maintenance_snooze_lease_owned is false, preserve it because another operator or automation owns it. Verify binary_sensor.docker_container_alerts_snoozed is off when this task cleared the lease, or explicitly report the preserved owner deadline. If maintenance or verification fails, do not clear the lease; leave the fail-safe deadline in place and report it.
required_policy=This dispatch is Carlo's authorization to install pending same-release Proxmox package updates after live preflight passes; do not stop after read-only validation. Inspect live Proxmox cluster health, storage, VM placement, node status, and destination memory headroom before changing anything. Patch hosts one node at a time during the overnight window and verify each node remains healthy before moving to the next. Do not perform major-version upgrades, repository migrations, destructive cleanup, or force operations from this request. If the live preflight is unhealthy, pause and report instead of patching. If kernel packages are present or a reboot is required after kernel updates, use the $kernel-refresh skill and follow its ordered node-cycling workflow; if that skill is unavailable, stop before any reboot and report the blocker.

Migrate exactly one VM at a time and wait for task success plus running/unlocked/HA-started state before starting another.
