I like the idea of Assist that you already can write to it and it can do stuff. But I really dislike that I have to open the HA frontend and then press the button at top and then there is a popup and there you write stuff.
What I’d like is to just have a room on may Matrix server and the conversation happening there instead, is that possible somehow? I’m trying to google it but I can’t find what I’m looking for.

But this does not integrate with Assist at all or am I missing something?
Can’t you use an automation to feed assist with the matrix messages?
Not sure how, it needs to be a dialog back and forth, perhaps with the intents, but then I don’t need Assist if I do it with intents directly :D
Me neither. Sorry. I just heard in the podcast that scripts now can return values. And we can always store state inside of some input helpers. But if you don’t find a solution or an idea of how to do it in the forum, it’s maybe not (yet) possible this way. Or too complicated.
I have a few other things to do before i can start fiddling around with Assist and soldering some voice assistant for the kitchen.
