Home Assistant status not accurate after 9.95
I was previously running the homekit/local API beta firmware, and got a request to update to 9.95. As of it being installed, Home Assistant no longer accurately reads garage door status. Was there a change to the API that would cause this? My tailwind app updates properly, but it does not update in Home Assistant at all. Door 1 is permanently closed, and Door 2 is permanently open in Home Assistant. I have tried reinstalling the Home Assistant addon, and restarting my Home Assistant server as well as the Tailwind device.

Updated local API documentation coming. There was a miscommunication with our firmware team regarding local API. Token has been added for security.

Did you recreate the integrations with HA using the new homekit codes? Also need to reset the IQ3 using the reset button and holding for only 5 seconds until it quickly flashes green. If you were on the beta firmware it would have paired using the old beta shared key and it should have a unique per IQ3 code now.

New documentation for local control API here.
NOTE: We are updating to JSON to make the API much more future friendly. This document will show you how to add the security token to your implementation and will work with firmware V9.95, but please note that when we implement JSON in future updates it will render this version obsolete and we will migrate to the JSON version.https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1Y4CAscgn1FCmTAKg7YcLYHRRQPuNC6G0?usp=sharing

If you're using my custom HA integration (either via HACS or manually installed as a custom component), I've just released an update (v0.2.0) which works with the V9.95 iQ3 firmware.
After updating the component (and restarting HA), the integration will show as "Retrying setup: 'api_token'" as your configuration won't include the new Local Control Key; unfortunately, you'll have to remove the integration and re-add it (just click the 3 dots on the integration card, choose "Delete" and confirm; then click "Add integration" and re-add your Tailwind - specifying the Local Control Key, which you can find by following the instructions at the bottom of the README: https://github.com/pauln/tailwind-home-assistant
When re-added with the Local Control Key, it should keep its original unique ID, so your doors should hopefully still appear on any dashboards you've added them to, and automations etc should still work.
