Automated safety checks

scanned

This skill failed 1 of 6 checks. A failure is not proof of bad intent; it means something in the code needs a human to look at it before you run it.

  • No undeclared network calls: failed

    Contacts 1 host that is neither well-known infrastructure nor declared in the skill's frontmatter: ha.cullen.rocks.

    Every host the skill dials — from its scripts, its config endpoints or the commands it tells the agent to run — is either well-known package and API infrastructure or declared in its own frontmatter. Links in documentation are not counted.

    No pipe-to-shell or download-and-run installers.

    No `curl … | sh` pattern, in the code or in the instructions, that runs code fetched at run time.

About this skill

What it does

This skill allows AI agents to interact with a Home Assistant instance. It enables querying device states, controlling devices (turning lights on/off, adjusting thermostats), and retrieving sensor data like temperature or humidity readings. The agent can use this information to automate tasks or provide real-time updates based on your smart home environment.

When to use it

  • Smart Home Automation: Automate routines in your home based on conditions (e.g., "Turn off all lights when I leave").
  • Real-Time Status Updates: Get current status of devices and sensors ("What's the temperature inside?").
  • Voice Control Integration: Control devices through voice commands via the AI agent ("Dim the living room lights to 50%").
  • Data Analysis & Reporting: Retrieve historical data from Home Assistant for analysis or reporting purposes.

Key capabilities

  • Device state querying
  • Device control (on/off, adjustments)
  • Sensor data retrieval
  • Integration with Home Assistant instances

Example prompts

  • "What is the current temperature in the bedroom?"
  • "Turn off the kitchen lights."
  • "Set the thermostat to 72 degrees."
  • “Report the humidity levels for today.”

Tips & gotchas

  • Requires a functional Home Assistant instance and proper configuration of the skill with your Home Assistant URL.
  • The level of detail accessible depends on how your devices are configured within Home Assistant.
