Another volunteer working with me used esphome services and the aioesphomeapi library to have a Flask app directly call services he wrote into the device's esphome yaml. For example, on card read, we make a HTTP call to Flask to ask for permission, and if authorized, the Flask app calls a service on the ESP device called "turn_on", at which point power can be sent to whatever is plugged into the 120V outlet attached to our custom PCB.

It feels like we're not doing things the way ESPHome and Home Assistant are intended to be used.
