binary_sensorOnOffSensor, ContactSensor, OccupancySensor, WaterLeakDetectorAll device-classes which are explicitly implemented, are mapped to contact sensor. Feel free to open a PR to improve this.
Water Leak Detectors are not supported by every controller.
climateThermostatMatter and Home Assistant have different definitions of “Auto” mode. In Matter, “Auto” mode means that a device will automatically choose between heat and cool based on the current local temperature. This is matching the “heat_cool” feature in Home Assistant, but not the “Auto” feature. There is no matching feature in matter.
