Adds one `number.adaptive_lighting_intensity_<name>` entity per
configuration, alongside the Sleep Mode / Adapt Brightness / Adapt Color
switches on the same device. It is a 0-100% slider that interpolates the
adaptive result towards the switch's floor:
output = floor_value + (adaptive_value - floor_value) * intensity / 100
100 short-circuits and returns the adaptive value untouched, so it is the
default and existing configurations behave exactly as before. 0 returns
the floor. In between the light stays fully adaptive -- the sun still
moves it at every setting, so it is a scaled curve rather than a frozen
level, which is what distinguishes this from simply scaling the
brightness band.
The floor is set by a new per-switch `intensity_floor` option: the
switch's sleep settings (`sleep_brightness`/`sleep_color_temp`) by
default, or its `min_brightness`/`min_color_temp`.
`transition_until_sleep` forces the sleep floor whatever `intensity_floor`
says. With that option on, the adaptive color temperature after sunset
descends below `min_color_temp` towards `sleep_color_temp`, so a
`min_color_temp` floor would sit above the adaptive value and turning the
dial down would make the light cooler.
Documented in the README's features and a new Intensity section, and on
the docs site as advanced/intensity.md.

Adaptive Lighting
Enhance Your Home's Atmosphere with Smart, Sun-Synchronized Lighting
Adaptive Lighting is a custom component for Home Assistant that intelligently adjusts the brightness and color of your lights based on the sun's position, while still allowing for manual control.
By automatically adapting the settings of your lights throughout the day, Adaptive Lighting helps maintain your natural circadian rhythm, which can lead to improved sleep, mood, and overall well-being. Experience cooler color temperatures at noon, gradually transitioning to warmer colors at sunset and sunrise.
Features
When initially turning on a light that is controlled by Adaptive Lighting, the light.turn_on service call is intercepted, and the light's brightness and color are automatically adjusted based on the sun's position.
After that, the light's brightness and color are automatically adjusted at a regular interval.
Adaptive Lighting provides four switches and a number entity (using "living_room" as an example component name):
switch.adaptive_lighting_living_room: Turn Adaptive Lighting on or off and view current light settings through its attributes.switch.adaptive_lighting_sleep_mode_living_room: Activate "sleep mode" 😴 and set custom sleep_brightness and sleep_color_temp.switch.adaptive_lighting_adapt_brightness_living_room: Enable or disable brightness adaptation 🔆 for supported lights.switch.adaptive_lighting_adapt_color_living_room: Enable or disable color adaptation 🌈 for supported lights.number.adaptive_lighting_living_room_intensity: Scale 🎚️ how far the adaptive settings travel from their floor, from 100% (unchanged) down to 0%.
Quick Start
- Install via HACS: Search for "Adaptive Lighting" in the Home Assistant Community Store
- Add the integration: Go to Settings → Devices & Services → Add Integration → Adaptive Lighting, then name your instance
- Configure: Open Adaptive Lighting, click Configure, select your lights, and adjust the settings. No YAML entry is needed.

How It Works
Adaptive Lighting provides four switches and a number entity for each configuration (using "living_room" as an example):
| Entity | Purpose |
|---|---|
switch.adaptive_lighting_living_room |
Main on/off control |
switch.adaptive_lighting_sleep_mode_living_room |
Activate sleep mode |
switch.adaptive_lighting_adapt_brightness_living_room |
Enable/disable brightness adaptation |
switch.adaptive_lighting_adapt_color_living_room |
Enable/disable color adaptation |
number.adaptive_lighting_living_room_intensity |
Scale the adaptive curve towards its floor |
