Intent does not trigger

[felixschndr]

Hey there,
I am currently getting started working on my voice assistant with HA and wanted to implement some weather stuff. I've seen that there is a HassGetWeather intent. However it does not trigger for me:

          **Gathering Weather Data**


          I'm currently focused on the user's request, specifically "wie ist das
          Wetter." This points me directly to gathering current weather
          information. I've noted the need for a location parameter, though it's
          missing in this turn. My next step will be to handle that.

          **Analyzing Weather Code**


          I've successfully retrieved the weather data for Karlsruhe, Germany.
          Now, I need to understand what "weathercode: 1" means. My next task
          will be to cross-reference this code with a weather code key or lookup
          table to provide a meaningful weather description to the user. I'm
          focusing on providing the user with a human-readable interpretation of
          the raw data.

          **Deciphering Weather Codes**


          Now I have temperature and weather code values. I've successfully
          translated the weather code '1' to "Mainly clear sky" after
          referencing my internal WMO weather codes knowledge. With the pieces
          in place, the plan is to assemble a coherent, plain-text response,
          incorporating both temperature and the interpreted weather description
          for the user.

HA sends the request to the LLM instead of handling it locally and I wonder why that is. Can someone explain that to me?

I have a weather entity (weather.home) setup and available.

And what does

        requires_context:
          domain: weather

mean?

[felixschndr]

Moreover, I'd like to know how to know about expanding the triggers of that intent: For example my SO likes to just say Temperatur (Temperature in English) and expects the current weather. Would it make sense to add such a phrase (or Weather for example or Date for HassGetCurrentDate) to the repo or shall I only add that locally?

[synesthesiam]

Is your weather entity exposed? The Assist debug tool recognizes "wie ist das Wetter" as a HassGetWeather intent for me.

For Temperatur, it might be easier to just add a sentence trigger

[felixschndr]

Is your weather entity exposed? The Assist debug tool recognizes "wie ist das Wetter" as a HassGetWeather intent for me.

Yes, weather.home is exposed to assist and other intents are recognized as expected.

I ran wie ist das wetter trough the debug tool:
When using google_ai_conversation it goes to the LLM as seen in the original comment.
When using home_assistant it responds with Wetter ist cloudy. According to the code

intents/responses/de/HassGetWeather.yaml

Line 24 in f638687

{{ state.attributes.get('temperature') }} {{ state.attributes.get('temperature_unit') }} {{ weather_condition.get((state.state | string).lower(), "") }}

I would assume to see something like 14°C und bewölkt. So it seems to me that the intent is not recognized, right? Shall I provide some debug logs (if so, which loggers do I have to set?)?

Here is the full conversation

I ran the sentence through the Assist tool in the developer options which shows an interesting result:
