 Each controller zone is exposed as a full Home Assistant `climate` entity with current/target temperature and HVAC modes: Off, Auto (follow the controller house mode), Cool and Heat. For a **zone thermostat**, Auto does not mean the GREE unit's native automatic heat/cool algorithm: it means **inherit the whole-house Heating/Cooling selection from GREE Controller**. Direct physical-device climate entities still use the native GREE Auto mode. The target temperature remains published while a zone is Off, so Home Assistant can display the configured setpoint instead of `unknown`. The existing zone target `number` and enabled `switch` remain available for compatibility.
 
-From version 0.7.9, each zone climate also supports preset modes `auto`, `comfort`, `sleep` and `away`, and the same choices are exposed as a separate **Work profile** `select` on the zone device. `auto` removes the temporary per-zone profile override and returns the zone to its schedule. The zone enable switch now reports the configured zone state independently from group power gates; `effective_enabled` remains available in attributes/sensors to show when an enabled zone is currently blocked by a disabled group. From version 0.7.10, climate entity ON/OFF controls local thermostat power rather than technically enabling/disabling the zone: local ON may run the zone while its group is off, with full thermostat logic intact. From 0.7.12, every local OFF creates a fresh backend-owned 15-minute hand-back deadline exposed as `local_thermostat_resume_at`. A direct/pilot takeover suspends expiry of that local timer; if the unit is returned to the previous OFF state, the backend re-arms a fresh 15-minute countdown from that moment. The separate zone Enabled switch remains the technical availability switch.

The zone enable switch reports the configured zone state independently from group control. Turning a group OFF powers its member units down and releases group ownership. Members are not blocked merely because the group remains OFF: an individual thermostat can be turned back on independently. Turning the group ON clears that scoped OFF state and immediately resumes group thermostat arbitration. From version 0.7.10, climate entity ON/OFF controls local thermostat power rather than technically enabling/disabling the zone. From 0.7.12, every local OFF creates a fresh backend-owned 15-minute hand-back deadline exposed as `local_thermostat_resume_at`.

 From version 0.6.4, zone climate entities use `climate.<zone_name>_thermostat`, for example `climate.igor_thermostat`. On integration reload, existing zone climate registry entries are migrated to this scheme using the zone's current name. If the target entity ID is already occupied, the old ID is retained and Home Assistant logs a warning.
