v1.0.5: Fix connection issues caused by v1.0.3/1.0.4

## Critical Fixes
- Removed duplicate Content-Type header (aiohttp sets it automatically)
- Fixed asyncio.CancelledError handling - was breaking task cancellation
- Reduced retry count from 3 to 2 to reduce traffic spikes

If downgrading to older version worked, this release fixes the issue.

+# Build & Deploy Guide
+
+## Available Commands
+
+### Build Commands
+
+- `npm run build` - Validates and builds the integration
+- `npm run build:release` - Creates a release package with zip file
+- `npm run build:deploy` - Builds and deploys to Home Assistant
+
+### Deploy Commands
+
+- `npm run deploy` - Deploys the integration to Home Assistant
+- `npm run release` - Alias for build:release
+
+### Version Management
+
+- `npm run version:update` - Updates version across all files
+- `npm run build 1.0.2` - Build with specific version update
+
+## Quick Start
+
+### Deploy to Home Assistant
+
+```bash
+# Build and deploy in one command
+npm run build:deploy
+```
+
+### Create a Release
+
+```bash
+# Create release package for GitHub/HACS
+npm run build:release
+```
+
+### Update Version and Release
+
+```bash
+# Build with new version and create release
+npm run build 1.0.2 --release
+```
+
+## What Each Command Does
+
+### `npm run build`
+
+1. Validates all Python files for syntax errors
+2. Validates all JSON files (manifest, strings, translations)
+3. Creates a clean distribution in `dist/` directory
+4. Shows current version from manifest.json
+
+### `npm run build:release`
+
+1. Does everything `build` does
+2. Creates a zip file in `release/` directory
+3. Copies README, LICENSE, and other docs to release folder
+4. Ready for GitHub releases or manual HACS installation
+
+### `npm run deploy`
+
+1. Checks if Home Assistant config is mounted
+2. Verifies HA instance is reachable
+3. Removes old integration version
+4. Copies new files to custom_components
+5. Shows next steps for HA restart
+
+## File Structure
+
+```

+├── custom_components/          # Source integration files
+│   └── ultra_card_pro_cloud/
+├── dist/                       # Build output (git ignored)
+│   └── ultra_card_pro_cloud/

+├── deploy.js                   # Deploy script
+└── package.json               # NPM scripts
+```
+
+## Requirements
+
+- Node.js installed
+- Python 3 (optional, for validation)
+- Home Assistant config mounted at `/Volumes/config`
+- Network access to your HA instance
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### Deploy fails with "volume not mounted"
+
+1. Mount your HA config share
+2. In Finder: Go → Connect to Server (⌘K)
+3. Enter: `smb://YOUR_HA_IP/config`
+
+### Python validation skipped
+
+- Install Python 3 if you want syntax validation
+- Build will continue without Python validation
+
+### Integration not showing after deploy
+
+1. Restart Home Assistant
+2. Clear browser cache
+3. Check Settings → Devices & Services → Add Integration

+## [1.0.5] - 2024-12-24
+
+### Fixed
+- **Critical: Removed duplicate Content-Type header** - aiohttp sets this automatically with `json=`, having it explicitly caused some servers/CDNs to reject requests
+- **Critical: Fixed asyncio.CancelledError handling** - Was incorrectly catching and converting to CannotConnect, preventing proper task cancellation during HA restarts
+- **Reduced retry count from 3 to 2** - Reduces traffic load when connections fail (was causing 3x traffic spikes)
+
+### Note
+If you experienced connection issues with v1.0.3/v1.0.4 but older versions worked, this release should fix it.
