# FLODE

> FLODE is a Marketplace integration for Home Assistant. It has 165 installs sharing analytics, works locally and was last updated October 25, 2026.

FLODE is an integration that shows Home Assistant automations and scripts as a flow on a canvas. Triggers, conditions and actions open in Home Assistant's own editors, and the result is saved as plain Home Assistant YAML. Choose and If-then blocks show their branches as cards, and flows can be laid out top to bottom. A run view places Home Assistant's trace timeline beside the canvas, marks the path and branch that ran, and can run from any chosen step. Relation checks point out conflicting or self-triggering automations, chains and missing entities. If an AI task is configured in Home Assistant, it can explain runs, answer questions about a flow and draft new automations; without one these buttons do not appear. It works locally and is added through the UI.
