0.6.9 — 2026-07-26

• Fixed: no Home Assistant entities unless you listed your cameras. An empty
  cameras list means "process every camera" — but MQTT discovery looped over exactly
  that empty list, so it announced nothing. Anyone running the default configuration got
  no sensors at all. FaceID now asks Frigate for the camera list when none is configured,
  and additionally announces a camera the first time it sees an event from it. Reported
  in the community thread; it never showed up here because our own config lists cameras
  explicitly.
• New: frigate_topic_prefix (default frigate). The subscription was hard-coded,
  so a Frigate instance with a custom mqtt.topic_prefix was silently never heard.
• Startup now says whether Frigate is reachable, lists its cameras, and warns about
  configured cameras that do not exist there. "It recognises nothing" and "nothing ever
  arrives" were indistinguishable in the log before.
