Smart Home

List and control smart-home devices through the bridge configured on this profile (e.g. Home Assistant or a compatible gateway). Camera video is not available through this skill — it is a UI-only feature in the octos-web dashboard.

Requires a bridge to be configured for the profile first (dashboard: Settings → Smart Home). In octos chat, set the SMART_HOME_BRIDGE_URL (and optionally SMART_HOME_BRIDGE_TOKEN) env vars instead. If no bridge is configured, tools will report that clearly instead of failing silently.

Tools

smart_home_list_devices

Returns every device the bridge knows about, with its current state (on/off, brightness, temperature, and other fields the device reports). Use this first to find a device's exact device_id before controlling it.

{"room": "Living Room"}

Parameters:

• room (optional): Filter to devices in a given room, case-insensitive. Omit to list everything.

smart_home_control_device

Sends a command to one device by ID.

{"device_id": "light.living_room_lamp", "params": {"on": true, "brightness": 60}}

Parameters:

• device_id (required): Exact ID from smart_home_list_devices.
• params (required): Object of fields to set. Common examples:
• {"on": true} / {"on": false} — power switches, lights, plugs
• {"brightness": 0-100} — dimmable lights
• {"temperature": <number>} — thermostats
• {"volume": 0-100} — speakers, TVs
• {"position": 0-100} — covers, blinds, curtains
• {"color": "#rrggbb"} — color-capable lights
• {"mode": "..."} — multi-mode appliances (fans, HVAC, etc.)

Supported fields vary by device kind — use the fields already present on that device in smart_home_list_devices's output as a guide.
