Hey, not op but also bring ready to convert my tuya stuff over to home assistant - what is this new coordinator you mention? Something within HA? Any extra info you could share would be appreciated!
Forgive me if I sound like I'm trying to over simplify things.
So your coordinator is the piece of hardware that listens for Zigbee devices. You typically plug your coordinator into your Pi or NUC on an extension cable and coupled with an add-on in Home Assistant or two, it will convert that to Mosquitto which is a Home Assistant readable format.
When you're going through things, just make as many threads as need be and people will offer advice. In the meantime, this video should help
