Does Fox ESS Avocado / MQ2200 work locally with Home Assistant?
Yes, according to the public sources: the HACS integration “FoxESS - Modbus” talks to it over the local network and exposes settable entities, not only sensors; evcc supports it locally and lets evcc control it.
Firmware updates can open or close local access — check the integration's own page before you buy, and your installer before software changes export limits or charges a battery from the grid.
