+  description: "This script was invented to be used with my Magic Cube Blueprints.
+    I released it as a standalone Script Blueprint because I saw others struggling
+    with how so convert cube rotation to light dimming in other places.\n\nTo use
+    this blueprint, install it from the source in the normal way. After that add your
+    unique name for the Script, and add an icon and change the entity_id if desired.
+    You should only need to run the blueprint once, as you will be calling the unique
+    name/entity you added above to use the code. This script has 2 inputs in the Blueprint
+    screen to set the sensitivity of the rotation action and the minimum bbrightness
+    level for your lights. If the rotation is too sensitive the lights will change
+    from dim to bright in too short of a rotation so make it less sensitive. If the
+    lights flicker at low brightness, raise the minimum brightness level to stop it.
+    The data is sent to the generated script to control the action live at each use.
+    You only need to ececute this blueprint generator script if you wish to change
+    in input values or create another dimmer script.\n\nThis requires you call this
+    script wth 2 data values. One is a positive or negative number between 360 and
+    -360 that in the original, represents the input angle from the cube movement.
+    The other data point is the entity of the light or light group that you are trying
+    to control.\n***NOTE:*** the trigger variable below will be different for Z2M
+    and ZHA and others. Look at my documentation for that cube integration help if
+    you need it.\n\n## \U0001F5FFNotice\U0001F46E\U0001F3FF‍♂️:\n* Copies of the original
+    Blueprint that were converted via the 'Take Control' feature or other means are
+    officially not supported by me.\n\n* I may or may not be able to support you when
+    you have a problem after you make changes to my code, as some of the code is no
+    longer mine.\n\n* I & my license also require attribution as a link back to the
+    original should you use this code in your own creation.\n\n* [Here is a link to
+    my license & the original github post](https://github.com/SirGoodenough/HA_Blueprints?tab=License-1-ov-file)
+    expected to be followed & referenced as attribution should you use this code elsewhere.\n\n
+    \ Sample call / use of this script for ZHA:\n    ```yaml\n    - action: script.cube_dimmer_control_bp\n
+    \     data:\n        angle: '{{ trigger.event.data.args.relative_degrees | default(0.1)
+    | float(0.2) }}'\n        light: light.grp_studio\n    ```\n\n  Sample call /
+    use of this script for Z2M:\n    ```yaml\n    - action: script.cube_dimmer_control_bp\n
+    \     data:\n        angle: '{{ trigger.payload_json.action_angle | default(0.1)
+    | float(0.2) }}'\n        light: light.grp_kitch\n    ```\n"

+"""Google Photos shared album client that bypasses the ~300 item HTML cap.
+
+Strategy
+--------
+1. Fetch the share URL HTML (with browser User-Agent so Google serves the
+   real page, not a JS-only shim).
+2. Extract the album media key and auth key from the embedded
+   ``AF_dataServiceRequests`` blob - the same parameters Google's JS uses
+   when it scrolls and needs more pages.
+3. Page through the album by POSTing to the public ``batchexecute`` endpoint
+   with the ``snAcKc`` RPC (the same one googlephotos.com calls). Each page
+   carries up to 300 items plus a continuation token; we loop until the
+   token is empty.
+
+This mirrors the approach used by community projects like
+``xob0t/google-photos-toolkit``. It uses only undocumented public endpoints
+and no auth.
+
+Brittleness
+-----------
+Google occasionally reshuffles the per-item array layout. We keep parsing
+positional but verify each field at access time and skip malformed entries
+rather than failing the whole batch.
