I have a Della mini split that I built and flashed control module for using openBekin, It is using MQTT and a a climate card in HA. Manual control with the climate card works great. What I want to do is create an automation that will turn on the heat when the temp of a Govee sensor drops below 42°F and off when it reaches 52°F. Easy enough BUT I only want it to turn off the heat only IF it was trigged by the automation to turn it on. That way if I turned it on manually the automation won't keep turning it off. I tried using trigger IDs but could not seem to figure out how to tell if the automation was why it's on.

You can create a helper that gets set if automation turns on the heating and when temperature reaches higher limit, you check the value of the helper to determine if it was started by the automation
and if you manually start heating, or if you correct the heating after the automation has started it, you can clear this helper to prevent it auto disablin
you are looking most likely to a input_boolean helper, or called Toggle in the UI
