    16  A condition defines an additional check that needs to be performed before executing the scenario. This condition can check the current state of a device or other factors. The condition is an optional component, and if it is present, the execution of the scenario will depend on its result.
    17  
    18  Example implementation of a condition handler:
    19  ```coffeescript
    20  automationCondition = (entityId)->
    21      entity = EntityGetState(entityId)
    22      if !entity || !entity.state 
    23          return false
    24      if entity.state.name == 'ON'
    25          return true
    26      return false
    27  ```
