What it does

It automatically dims and shifts the color temperature of your Home Assistant lights to follow the sun, creating healthier indoor lighting without manual adjustments.

When to use it

•You want your office lights to get cooler in the morning and warmer in the evening to support circadian rhythm.
•You have smart bulbs that support brightness and color temperature and want them to react to sunrise/sunset automatically.
•You need a lightweight alternative to third‑party lighting schedules that can be controlled via Home Assistant automations.

Ready-to-paste prompt

```yaml
service: adaptive_lighting.set
target:
  entity_id: light.living_room_adaptive
data:
  brightness: 180
  color_temp: 3500
  transition: 5
```

Heads up: Adaptive Lighting only works with lights that expose both `brightness` and `color_temp` (mired) attributes; trying to use it on a dim‑only or RGB‑only bulb will cause the service to fail.
