+# Rule Interface Documentation
+
+## Overview
+
+The rule interface provides a clean abstraction for implementing automation rules. Rules respond to device state changes and can publish commands, persist state, and log diagnostics.
+
+## Core Components
+
+### 1. RuleDescriptor
+
+Configuration data for a rule instance (loaded from `rules.yaml`):
+
+```python
+RuleDescriptor(
+    id="window_setback_wohnzimmer",           # Unique rule ID
+    name="Fensterabsenkung Wohnzimmer",       # Optional display name
+    type="window_setback@1.0",                # Rule type + version
+    targets={                                  # Rule-specific targets
+        "rooms": ["Wohnzimmer"],
+        "contacts": ["kontakt_wohnzimmer_..."],
+        "thermostats": ["thermostat_wohnzimmer"]
+    },
+    params={                                   # Rule-specific parameters
+        "eco_target": 16.0,
+        "open_min_secs": 20
+    }
+)
+```
+
+### 2. RedisState
+
+Async state persistence with automatic reconnection and retry logic:
+
+```python
+# Initialize (done by rule engine)
+redis_state = RedisState("redis://172.23.1.116:6379/8")
+
+# Simple key-value with TTL
+await ctx.redis.set("rules:my_rule:temp", "22.5", ttl_secs=3600)
+value = await ctx.redis.get("rules:my_rule:temp")  # Returns "22.5" or None
+
+# Hash storage (for multiple related values)
+await ctx.redis.hset("rules:my_rule:sensors", "bedroom", "open")
+await ctx.redis.hset("rules:my_rule:sensors", "kitchen", "closed")
+value = await ctx.redis.hget("rules:my_rule:sensors", "bedroom")  # "open"
+
+# TTL management
+await ctx.redis.expire("rules:my_rule:temp", 7200)  # Extend to 2 hours
+
+# JSON helpers (for complex data)
+import json
+data = {"temp": 22.5, "humidity": 45}
+await ctx.redis.set("rules:my_rule:data", ctx.redis._dumps(data))
+stored = await ctx.redis.get("rules:my_rule:data")
+parsed = ctx.redis._loads(stored) if stored else None
+```
+
+**Key Conventions:**
+- Use prefix `rules:{rule_id}:` for all keys
+- Example: `rules:window_setback_wohnzimmer:thermo:device_123:previous`
+- TTL recommended for temporary state (previous temperatures, timers)
+
+**Robustness Features:**
+- Automatic retry with exponential backoff (default: 3 retries)
+- Connection pooling (max 10 connections)
+- Automatic reconnection on Redis restart
+- Health checks every 30 seconds
+- All operations wait and retry, no exceptions on temporary outages
+
+### 3. MQTTClient
+
+Async MQTT client with event normalization and command publishing:
+
+```python
+# Initialize (done by rule engine)
+mqtt_client = MQTTClient(
+    broker="172.16.2.16",
+    port=1883,
+    client_id="rule_engine"
+)
+
+# Subscribe and receive normalized events
+async for event in mqtt_client.connect():
+    # Event structure:
+    # {
+    #     "topic": "home/contact/sensor_1/state",
+    #     "type": "state",
+    #     "cap": "contact",           # Capability (contact, thermostat, etc.)
+    #     "device_id": "sensor_1",
+    #     "payload": {"contact": "open"},
+    #     "ts": "2025-11-11T10:30:45.123456"
+    # }
+    
+    if event['cap'] == 'contact':
+        handle_contact(event)
+    elif event['cap'] == 'thermostat':
+        handle_thermostat(event)
+
+# Publish commands (within async context)
+await mqtt_client.publish_set_thermostat("thermostat_id", 22.5)
+```
+
+**Subscriptions:**
+- `home/contact/+/state` - All contact sensor state changes
+- `home/thermostat/+/state` - All thermostat state changes
+
+**Publishing:**
+- Topic: `home/thermostat/{device_id}/set`
+- Payload: `{"type":"thermostat","payload":{"target":22.5}}`
+- QoS: 1 (at least once delivery)
+
+**Robustness:**
+- Automatic reconnection with exponential backoff
+- Connection logging (connect/disconnect events)
+- Clean session handling
+
+### 4. MQTTPublisher (Legacy)
+
+Simplified wrapper around MQTTClient for backward compatibility:
+
+```python
+# Set thermostat temperature
+await ctx.mqtt.publish_set_thermostat("thermostat_wohnzimmer", 21.5)
+```
+
+### 5. RuleContext
+
+Runtime context provided to rules:
+
+```python
+class RuleContext:
+    logger           # Logger instance
+    mqtt             # MQTTPublisher
+    redis            # RedisState
+    now() -> datetime  # Current timestamp
+```
+
+### 5. Rule Abstract Base Class
+
+All rules extend this:
+
+```python
+class MyRule(Rule):
+    async def on_event(self, evt: dict, desc: RuleDescriptor, ctx: RuleContext) -> None:
+        # Event structure:
+        # {
+        #     "topic": "home/contact/device_id/state",
+        #     "type": "state",
+        #     "cap": "contact",
+        #     "device_id": "kontakt_wohnzimmer",
+        #     "payload": {"contact": "open"},
+        #     "ts": "2025-11-11T10:30:45.123456"
+        # }
+        
+        device_id = evt['device_id']
+        cap = evt['cap']
+        
+        if cap == 'contact':
+            contact_state = evt['payload'].get('contact')
+            # ... implement logic
+```
+
+## Implementing a New Rule
+
+### Step 1: Create Rule Class
+
+```python
+from packages.rule_interface import Rule, RuleDescriptor, RuleContext
+from typing import Any
+
+class MyCustomRule(Rule):
+    """My custom automation rule."""
+    
+    async def on_event(
+        self,
+        evt: dict[str, Any],
+        desc: RuleDescriptor,
+        ctx: RuleContext
+    ) -> None:
+        """Process device state changes."""
+        
+        # 1. Extract event data
+        device_id = evt['device_id']
+        cap = evt['cap']
+        payload = evt['payload']
+        
+        # 2. Filter to relevant devices
+        if device_id not in desc.targets.get('my_devices', []):
+            return
+        
+        # 3. Implement logic
+        if cap == 'contact':
+            if payload.get('contact') == 'open':
+                # Do something
+                await ctx.mqtt.publish_set_thermostat(
+                    'some_thermostat',
+                    desc.params.get('temp', 20.0)
+                )
+        
+        # 4. Persist state if needed
+        state_key = f"rule:{desc.id}:device:{device_id}:state"
+        await ctx.redis.set(state_key, payload.get('contact'))
+```
+
+### Step 2: Register in RULE_IMPLEMENTATIONS
+
+```python
+# In your rule module (e.g., my_custom_rule.py)
+RULE_IMPLEMENTATIONS = {
+    'my_custom@1.0': MyCustomRule,
+}
+```
+
+### Step 3: Configure in rules.yaml
+
+```yaml
+rules:
+  - id: my_custom_living_room
+    name: My Custom Rule for Living Room
+    type: my_custom@1.0
+    targets:
+      my_devices:
+        - device_1
+        - device_2
+    params:
+      temp: 22.0
+      duration_secs: 300
+```
+
+## Best Practices
+
+### Idempotency
+
+Rules MUST be idempotent - processing the same event multiple times should be safe:
+
+```python
+# Good: Idempotent
+async def on_event(self, evt, desc, ctx):
+    if evt['payload'].get('contact') == 'open':
+        await ctx.mqtt.publish_set_thermostat('thermo', 16.0)
+
+# Bad: Not idempotent (increments counter)
+async def on_event(self, evt, desc, ctx):
+    counter = await ctx.redis.get('counter') or '0'
+    await ctx.redis.set('counter', str(int(counter) + 1))
+```
+
+### Error Handling
+
+Handle errors gracefully - the engine will catch and log exceptions:
+
+```python
+async def on_event(self, evt, desc, ctx):

+        await ctx.mqtt.publish_set_thermostat('thermo', 16.0)
+    except Exception as e:
+        ctx.logger.error(f"Failed to set thermostat: {e}")
+        # Don't raise - let event processing continue
+```
+
+### State Keys
+
+Use consistent naming for Redis keys:
+
+```python
+# Pattern: rule:{rule_id}:{category}:{device_id}:{field}
+state_key = f"rule:{desc.id}:contact:{device_id}:state"
+ts_key = f"rule:{desc.id}:contact:{device_id}:ts"
+prev_key = f"rule:{desc.id}:thermo:{device_id}:previous"
+```
+
+### Logging
+
+Use appropriate log levels:
+
+```python
+ctx.logger.debug("Detailed diagnostic info")
+ctx.logger.info("Normal operation milestones")
+ctx.logger.warning("Unexpected but handled situations")
+ctx.logger.error("Errors that prevent operation")
+```
+
+## Event Structure Reference
+
+### Contact Sensor Event
+
+```python
+{
+    "topic": "home/contact/kontakt_wohnzimmer/state",
+    "type": "state",
+    "cap": "contact",
+    "device_id": "kontakt_wohnzimmer",
+    "payload": {
+        "contact": "open"  # or "closed"
+    },
+    "ts": "2025-11-11T10:30:45.123456"
+}
+```
+
+### Thermostat Event
+
+```python
+{
+    "topic": "home/thermostat/thermostat_wohnzimmer/state",
+    "type": "state",
+    "cap": "thermostat",
+    "device_id": "thermostat_wohnzimmer",
+    "payload": {
+        "target": 21.0,
+        "current": 20.5,
+        "mode": "heat"
+    },
+    "ts": "2025-11-11T10:30:45.123456"
+}
+```
+
+## Testing Rules
+
+Rules can be tested independently of the engine:
+
+```python
+import pytest
+from unittest.mock import AsyncMock, MagicMock
+from packages.my_custom_rule import MyCustomRule
+from packages.rule_interface import RuleDescriptor, RuleContext
+
+@pytest.mark.asyncio
+async def test_my_rule():
+    # Setup
+    rule = MyCustomRule()
+    
+    desc = RuleDescriptor(
+        id="test_rule",
+        type="my_custom@1.0",
+        targets={"my_devices": ["device_1"]},
+        params={"temp": 22.0}
+    )
+    
+    # Mock context
+    ctx = RuleContext(
+        logger=MagicMock(),
+        mqtt_publisher=AsyncMock(),
+        redis_state=AsyncMock(),
+        now_fn=lambda: datetime.now()
+    )
+    
+    # Test event
+    evt = {
+        "device_id": "device_1",
+        "cap": "contact",
+        "payload": {"contact": "open"},
+        "ts": "2025-11-11T10:30:45.123456"
+    }
+    
+    # Execute
+    await rule.on_event(evt, desc, ctx)
+    
+    # Assert
+    ctx.mqtt.publish_set_thermostat.assert_called_once_with('some_thermostat', 22.0)
+```
+
+## Extension Points
+
+The interface is designed to be extended without modifying the engine:
+
+1. **New rule types**: Just implement `Rule` and register in `RULE_IMPLEMENTATIONS`
+2. **New MQTT commands**: Extend `MQTTPublisher` with new methods
+3. **New state backends**: Implement `RedisState` interface with different storage
+4. **Custom context**: Extend `RuleContext` with additional utilities
+
+The engine only depends on the abstract interfaces, not specific implementations.

+Rule Implementations Package

+  Example: window_setback.py for type 'window_setback@1.0'
+  
+- Class name: PascalCase + 'Rule' suffix
+  Example: WindowSetbackRule
