What

Add Preset, a client-side bundle of zone settings, and ThermostatConnection.apply_preset(zone_id, preset).

Why

Issue #9 asks for preset-mode control. The reverse-engineered local protocol has no native preset command — the full observed event/command set is zone mode, fan mode, hold type, setpoints, and emergency heat. Presets (Home/Away/Sleep) are a Nexia/Trane cloud concept. Rather than guess an unverified wire command at real HVAC hardware, this implements presets the only safe way: as a client-side convenience layered over commands that are already verified.

How

  • Preset is a frozen dataclass: name + optional zone_mode, heat_setpoint, cool_setpoint, fan_mode, and a hold_type (defaults to MANUAL).
  • apply_preset() issues only existing verified commands (set_zone_mode, set_temperature_setpoint, set_fan_mode). None fields are skipped, so a preset can target just the settings it cares about (e.g. an "Away" preset that only shifts setpoints). This is enough to back a Home Assistant preset_modes list.
  • No protocol changes, no new wire messages.

Testing

  • 4 new tests (full bundle ordering, None-field skipping, mode-only, default manual hold).
  • Full suite green: 152 passed. ruff check clean on changed files.

Note on native presets / fan speed

If the device does emit preset or variable fan-speed traffic, it isn't visible in the current reverse-engineered protocol. A packet capture of the Nexia app driving a preset would be needed to add native support — see the issue comment for guidance.

Generated by Kōan

The local thermostat protocol exposes no native preset command, unlike the
Nexia/Trane cloud API. Add a frozen Preset dataclass and apply_preset(), a
client-side convenience that bundles already-verified zone commands (mode,
setpoints, hold, fan) under a name. None fields are skipped so a preset can
target only the settings it cares about — enough to back a Home Assistant
preset_modes list.
