What This Skill Does
Controls and queries smart home devices through the Itsyhome macOS app via a local HTTP webhook server. Supports HomeKit and Home Assistant devices including lights, thermostats, locks, blinds, fans, and scenes. Works by sending curl requests to a local server running on the same Mac as the OpenClaw gateway.
Operates entirely over a local HTTP server, so no cloud dependency or external API latency is involved.
When to use it
- Turn off all lights before leaving home
- Check if the front door is locked
- Dim bedroom lights to 30% at night
- Run a 'Goodnight' scene to set the whole house
- Open garage door without leaving the desk
