For vacation lights, I created a “Vacation Mode” dummy switch in homebridge, this allows me to have automations that I keep enabled all the time and only works when “Vacation Mode” is enabled. In that, I created times with if commands and have a list with a choose random number. Each number refers to a specific if result.
HomeBridge is so great for these use cases. I have tons of virtual switches that I use to trigger automations, use for conditionals within other automations, etc.
Level Lock does have an auto lock setting in the level lock app. In the App just go to the bottom right hit the setting icon with the 3 lines that have dots on it. Ensure Auto lock is off. Now if its already off then you have an Automation in the Home app that is locking it like when the last person leaves the home lock the door; which might be triggering the door to lock. This is one of those preset automations that Apple setups up and all you have to do is enable it which might have happened if you installed it and accidently enabled it. Just go to the lock accessory details and scroll down to the automation section and make sure you don't have any automation enable to lock the door.
I use a Dyson TP07 purifier at home, connected via homebridge. Works very good!

Smartwings, No Matter no buy. I wouldn't want to be locked into a single platform.
