`leak`	Identifies the presence of water or other liquids to detect leaks and prevent damage.	No	See details
`temperature`	Measures the current temperature in an environment, reported in degrees Celsius.	No	See details

Use Case Scenarios

Humidity Control:
- Set target humidity levels and mist intensity using the humidifier channel. Monitor current humidity with the humidity channel.
Environmental Monitoring:
- Track room temperature and humidity for optimal comfort and health.
Safety Features:
- Detect water leaks to prevent overflow and water damage.

Developer Notes

The humidifier and humidity channels are required for core functionality.
Optional fan channel allows independent mist/fan speed control.
Leak detection is recommended to prevent water overflow incidents.
