[Unreleased]

[v0.4.0] - 2026-07-16

Added

• Mode control (first mutating RPC). New SetMode RPC on EconetService, exposed over gRPC, the REST gateway (POST /v1alpha1/devices/{serial}/mode), and as an MCP tool. Writes go out over ClearBlade's REST publish endpoint (POST /message/{systemKey}/publish, topic user/{account_id}/device/desired, payload {"@MODE": <idx>, ...}) — the HTTP equivalent of the app's MQTT publish, so no MQTT client is required. The mode is applied asynchronously by the Rheem cloud and only reflected on a later poll.
• Mode proto enum (off, electric, energy-saving, heat-pump, high-demand, gas, performance, vacation) with protovalidate rejecting the unspecified value. The enum flows into the MCP tool's input schema, so clients see the valid modes. Supported modes are validated per-device against the unit's reported mode list (@MODE is published as an index into it).
• Generated MCP server (econetmcpgen) built from the proto via protoc-gen-go-mcp, now mounted at /api/mcp, forwarding in-process to the gRPC server through the go-sdk adapter. The hand-written econetmcp package is retained as a one-line-switchable fallback in pkg/econet/econet.go.
• Optional Grafana dashboard shipped as a ConfigMap in the Helm chart. Enable with hull.config.settings.grafanaDashboard.enabled=true; the ConfigMap is labeled grafana_dashboard: "1" for the Grafana sidecar to auto-import. The dashboard uses the default Prometheus datasource (no hard-coded UID) and has a multi-select Device filter driven by econet_friendly_name. Covers connect/ heating/mode/setpoint/hot-water/alerts, setpoint range, hot-water availability, energy + cost + water usage, a heating-state timeline, WiFi signal, and a device-info table. Sidecar label/value and Grafana folder are configurable.

Changed

• MCP tool surface changed with the switch to generated tools: /api/mcp now serves econet_v1alpha1_EconetService_ListDevices, _GetDevice, and _SetMode (structured JSON output) instead of the single list_water_heaters summary tool. Switch back via the aliased import in pkg/econet/econet.go.

[v0.3.0] - 2026-07-05

Changed

• Replaced the third-party kevinburke/rheemcloud-go dependency and its MQTT coupling with an in-repo econetclient REST poller that talks directly to the Rheem/EcoNet cloud REST API. Device state (including @RUNNING, @MODE, and @STATUS) is sourced from the REST getUserDataForApp payload, so no MQTT connection is required.

Removed

• rheemcloud package and its go.mod/go.sum entries.

[v0.2.0] - 2026-07-05

Added

• econetTLSInsecure config option (env ECONET_TLS_INSECURE) to skip TLS certificate verification when connecting to the Rheem/EcoNet cloud API. The upstream host (cloudblade) serves an old/untrusted certificate chain; this is a stopgap and should be removed once the upstream certificate is fixed. See AGENTS.md.
• TODO.md tracking outstanding work (CA cert bundle, mutating proto RPCs, additional tracing spans).

[v0.1.2] - 2026-07-04

Added

• CA certificate bundle baked into the container image so the exporter can establish TLS connections to the EcoNet API.

Changed

• Bumped Helm chart versions.

[v0.1.1] - 2026-07-04

Fixed

• Corrected the Helm chart appVersion.

[v0.1.0] - 2026-07-04

Initial release of the EcoNet exporter for Rheem / Rheemcloud water heaters, built on the go-app framework.

Added

• EconetService owning a single shared *rheemcloud.Client across the gRPC, MCP, and metrics sub-servers (fail-fast on missing credentials).
• gRPC API (ListDevices, GetDevice) with proto definitions and grpc-gateway REST bindings.
• MCP server at /api/mcp exposing a list_water_heaters tool.
• OpenTelemetry observable gauges for device state (temperature, mode, energy and water usage, cost) with a background usage poller, exported to Prometheus. Units are encoded in metric names (_fahrenheit, _kwh, _gallons, _dollars).
• costPerKWH config (US dollars per kWh) feeding econet_energy_cost_dollars.
• Helm chart for Kubernetes deployment.
