# Game Light Tracker

Automatically sync your Hue lights with live sports scores. When the lead changes, your lights change color to match the leading team.

## Quick Start

**Basic usage:**
```
Track the [Team A] vs [Team B] game and change my [light name] to [color1] when [Team A] leads and [color2] when [Team B] leads
```

**Examples:**
- "Track the Rams vs Seahawks game and change my backlight to blue when Rams lead, green when Seahawks lead" (NFL)
- "Monitor the Lakers vs Celtics game, purple for Lakers, green for Celtics" (NBA)
- "Watch the Rangers vs Devils game - blue for Rangers, red for Devils" (NHL)
- "Track the Yankees vs Red Sox game, make my living room light blue for Yankees, red for Red Sox" (MLB)

## How It Works

1. Fetches live scores from ESPN API every 20 seconds
2. Detects lead changes
3. Changes specified Hue light color via Home Assistant
4. Includes auto-restart keeper to prevent timeouts
5. Optional: Adds third color for tied games

## Setup Requirements

- Home Assistant with Hue lights configured
- Home Assistant API token (stored in `.homeassistant-config.json`)
- Light entity ID from Home Assistant

```

- `-Light`: Home Assistant light entity ID
- `-Color1`: RGB color for Team1 (comma-separated, e.g., "0,0,255" for blue)
- `-Color2`: RGB color for Team2 (comma-separated, e.g., "0,100,0" for dark green)
- `-TiedColor`: (Optional) RGB color when game is tied

### `keeper.ps1`
Auto-restart supervisor that prevents 30-minute timeout crashes.

   - Extract sport (NFL/NBA/NHL/MLB)
   - Get team abbreviations from user or look up from team names

2. **Get light and color preferences:**
   - Ask for light entity ID (or read from Home Assistant config)
   - Get desired RGB colors for each team
   - Optional: Ask if they want a tied-game color

3. **Load Home Assistant config:**
   ```powershell
   $config = Get-Content ".homeassistant-config.json" | ConvertFrom-Json
   $token = $config.token
   $url = $config.url
   ```

4. **Start game tracker:**
   ```powershell
