Doors and windows (covers) don't work because there are also door and window binary_sensors and we don't have a fix yet. You can ask to open or close a cover, you can ask what state it's in (by name) but you can't ask if it's in a certain state

#

Regarding your other states, what the domain for the entity with states Ready and Not ready?

Im not sure the domain is for the entity. But when its closed its state is ready and when its open its state is not ready

#

right now i set an alias for the zone and Im asking "what is the state of the garage door" and it will say "The garage door is ready" But i wasn wondering if there was a way to check the state value and then say whether the garage door is closed or open based on its ready or not ready state

Click the entity that says "ready", then click settings (the cog in the upper-right corner of the popup). Then tell me what the full entity ID is.

Also, you're saying that when this entity has the state "ready", the garage door is closed? Does it belong to a device (in HA)?

Its a sensor entity that has been added through hacs. The entity Id is sensor.ultrasync_zone20state

#

Its a zone sensor that is apart of my ultrasync alarm panel integration. If a zone is closed then it is considered ready and if its open then not ready.

The built-in sentences you were referring to work with binary_sensors, not with sensors.

#

Oh right. Is there any built in sentences that work with sensor entities that is more than just "what is the state of entity"?

#

Is sensor open?
