It has 213 installs sharing analytics, needs the vendor's cloud and was last updated October 13, 2026. HA Text AI connects Home Assistant to several cloud language model providers for use in automations and scripts. It supports OpenAI, Anthropic Claude, DeepSeek and Google Gemini, plus any OpenAI-compatible endpoint, including self-hosted servers when local network access is allowed. The ask question action returns the full response directly to the calling automation, which avoids the 255-character state limit. It also keeps conversation history per instance, with actions to read or clear it and to set a default system prompt. Structured JSON output and per-request overrides of model, temperature, response length and thinking mode are available. Token counts, latency and error statistics appear as sensor attributes, and setup is done in the UI with a provider API key. Automatic summary of the README and code of smkrv/ha-text-ai.

This service now returns response data directly, eliminating the need for separate text sensors and the 255-character limitation. The response will also be stored in the conversation history. Fields: Instance, Question, Context Messages, System Prompt, Model, Temperature, Max Tokens, Structured Output, JSON Schema, Disable Thinking - **Clear History**: Delete all stored questions and responses from the conversation history Fields: Instance - **Get History**: Retrieve conversation history with optional filtering and sorting Fields: Instance, Limit, Filter Model, Start Date, Include Metadata, Sort Order - **Set System Prompt**: Set default system behavior instructions for all future conversations Fields: Instance, System Prompt ## From the README > - Multi-provider support: OpenAI, Anthropic Claude, DeepSeek, Google Gemini, plus any OpenAI-compatible endpoint > - Conversation context: the model sees previous messages; depth is configurable per request (1-20) > - Response variables: ask\_question returns the full response directly to the calling automation, bypassing the 255-character state limit > - Structured output: JSON responses matching a schema you provide > - Per-request overrides: model, temperature, max\_tokens, system prompt, thinking mode > - Usage metrics: token counters, latency and success/error statistics as sensor attributes > - File-based history: per-instance JSON storage with automatic rotation at 1 MB From the README of [smkrv/ha-text-ai](https://github.com/smkrv/ha-text-ai#readme), [MIT License](https://spdx.org/licenses/MIT.html).
