wtf is chore-champion?

Chore Champion is a chore tracker for kids built on top of Home Assistant, the open-source home automation platform. The README describes it as gamified: the child sees a daily mission list on a phone dashboard, taps tasks to mark them done, earns experience points, builds streaks, and gets a weekly cash allowance in euros based on how much of the week they finished. The task list is not static. Each morning the system reads the family Google Calendar to figure out what kind of day it is, looking for specific recurring events titled swim_champ_morning, swim_champ_afternoon, or maths_teacher, plus a day-type selector for weekday, early school, weekend, or public holiday. From that, it picks the right combination of tasks from a fixed catalog like Empty lunchboxes, Homework, Prepare uniform, Pack school bag, Wash hair, and Charge and pack laptop, each with a fixed XP value of 10, 15, or 20. The reward math is laid out in tables. Streaks of 3 to 6 days multiply XP by 1.25, 7 to 13 by 1.5, and 14 or more by 2. Weekly completion of 100 percent pays 8 euros, 90 percent pays 7, dropping to zero below 50 percent. Two consecutive 90 percent weeks raise the cap to 10 euros, three or more to 12. Reminders and confirmation flow through WhatsApp using an HA WhatsApp bridge. The reminder text is generated by Claude through the Anthropic API so the messages vary instead of sounding robotic. When all tasks are marked done, the parent receives a WhatsApp message and replies champ approved to confirm, which triggers the XP award and streak update. The dashboard rotates through 12 themed 28-day seasons with custom hero images. Installation is involved. The README walks through creating about thirty Home Assistant helpers, input booleans for each task, input numbers for points and streaks, input text and datetime helpers, registering a Lovelace dashboard, copying YAML files for automations and scripts, and uploading 12 season images. It also lists prerequisites: button-card, card-mod, mushroom cards, Google Calendar integration, an Anthropic API key, and a WhatsApp bridge. License is MIT.
