It does work and works well I using temp. I can address the other startup criteria. If you are using a BMK I am experiencing some differences between the BMK parameters and my ARC-50 parameters.

I've also looked into this option. We have a 2020 Legacy 3813ms with the small solar flex package, 265w panel with 5 inverted outlets. We've thought about adding autostart to ours for boondocking but not for running the AC so much as to recharge the batteries if they ever get drawn too low and the solar can't keep up. The option to run the AC's is also intriguing though. We haven't gone Lithium yet but are thinking of doing so, probably 200ah. A couple of questions what did you find your solar/lithium needs to be? I know it's different for everyone but just wondering. Secondly, how much has the autostart impacted your ability to explore different areas. Lastly is it reliable in your experience?
