In the case of covers, the "which" / "how many" questions do not work.

Hello, I noticed something that I think used to work: If I ask whether the living room door is open, I get a correct answer that it is. But if I ask how many doors are open, it says 0 and it's as if it doesn't see a single door at all. The question seems to be language-independent because I get a similar result in English as well.

There are a few types of devices for which the entity selection is difficult, the implementation lacking and, thus, they produce unexpected result.

The root of the issue is selecting entities across multiple "filters" (e.g. domain or domain+device_class). Let's say we're talking about windows and you want to know "how many windows are open".

In HA there are 2 types of "windows"

• domain: cover, device_class: window which are window actuators with state reporting
• domain: binary_sensor, device_class: window which are simply window sensors

A comprehensive query would take all of these entities, filter on state and count all of the matched entities. However, due to the way the recognition engine is set up, we can only have a single "filter" defined by requires_context/excludes_context and the current implementation (for windows, at least) is to count all cover entities, having no equivalent for binary_sensor.

It is indeed an issue, but the solution is not in the intents repo, but rather in how we should query for entities.

Hi, now I understand everything. Should I open a bug in the core for this, or should we consider it correct behavior?
