README (SKILL.md)

Home Assistant

Operate Home Assistant through your OOMOL-connected account. This skill calls the home_assistant connector with the oo CLI; OOMOL injects credentials server-side, so you never handle raw tokens.

Category: Productivity. Exposes 8 action(s).

Running an action

Assume the user has already installed the oo CLI, signed in, and connected Home Assistant. Do not run oo auth login or open the connection URL proactively — just run the action. Fall back to First-time setup only when a command actually fails with an auth or connection error.

1. Inspect the contract to get the authoritative input/output schema before building a payload:

oo connector schema "home_assistant" --action "\x3Caction_name>"

2. Run the action with a JSON payload that matches the input schema:

oo connector run "home_assistant" --action "\x3Caction_name>" --data '\x3Cjson>' --json
  • --data takes a JSON object string or @path/to/file.json; omit it to send {}.
  • The response is { "data": ..., "meta": { "executionId": "..." } }; the execution id lives under meta.executionId.

Each action below links to a reference file with its purpose and exact commands. Read the linked file, then fetch the live schema with oo connector schema before constructing --data.

Available actions

  • call_service — Call a Home Assistant service to control entities, such as light.turn_on or switch.turn_off.
  • fire_event — Fire one Home Assistant event with optional event data.
  • get_config — Fetch the Home Assistant instance configuration.
  • get_state — Fetch the current state for one Home Assistant entity.
  • list_events — List Home Assistant event types currently known by the instance.
  • list_services — List Home Assistant service domains and their available services.
  • list_states — List all current Home Assistant entity states.
  • render_template — Render a Home Assistant template against the connected instance.

Safety

  • Read actions (get / list / search) are safe to run directly.
  • Create, update, send, or post actions change Home Assistant state — confirm the exact payload and effect with the user before running.
  • Delete or remove actions are destructive — always confirm the target and get explicit approval first.

First-time setup

These are one-time steps — do not repeat them on every call. Run a step only when a command fails for the matching reason.

  • oo: command not found — install the oo CLI (other platforms: \x3Chttps://cli.oomol.com/install-guide.md>):

    curl -fsSL https://cli.oomol.com/install.sh | bash    # macOS / Linux
    
    irm https://cli.oomol.com/install.ps1 | iex           # Windows PowerShell
    
  • Not signed in / authentication error — sign in to your OOMOL account once:

    oo auth login
    
  • scope_missing / credential_expired / app_not_ready / app_not_found — Home Assistant is not connected, or the connection expired or lacks a scope. Connect once (auth type: API key) at:

    https://console.oomol.com/app-connections?provider=home_assistant
    
  • HTTP 402 / OOMOL_INSUFFICIENT_CREDIT — billing stop. Recharge at https://console.oomol.com/billing/token-recharge before retrying.

Usage Guidance
Review this before installing if your Home Assistant instance controls locks, alarms, doors, appliances, or other sensitive devices. Only use it with an OOMOL/Home Assistant account whose permissions you are comfortable granting, and require explicit confirmation before any service call, event firing, or other state-changing action.

Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
The artifact coherently targets Home Assistant through OOMOL, but it includes call_service and fire_event actions that can change device or automation behavior despite the frontmatter emphasizing searching and reading data.
Instruction Scope
The trigger language says to use the skill for any Home Assistant request, which is too broad for a credentialed connector that can control entities; the main safety section requires confirmation for state-changing actions, but the capability boundary is still under-described.
Install Mechanism
The skill is Markdown-only and limits tools to Bash(oo *). First-time setup may install the oo CLI via a remote install script only if the CLI is missing, and authentication is delegated to OOMOL.
Credentials
Home Assistant access can expose household state data and can affect physical devices or automations. That access is purpose-related, but it should be more clearly separated between read-only and control workflows.
Persistence & Privilege
Credentials are described as server-side through OOMOL, with persistent account connection required. No background worker, hidden persistence, raw token handling, or bundled executable code was found.
How to Use
  1. Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
  2. Run the install command in chat: /install oo-home-assistant
  3. After installation, invoke the skill by name or use /oo-home-assistant
  4. Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
Version History
v1.0.0
- Connects Codex to Home Assistant through the OOMOL `home_assistant` connector, with credentials handled server-side. - Provides safe read actions for inspecting instance configuration, entity states, event types, and available services. - Supports targeted entity lookup via `get_state` and full environment discovery via `list_states`, `list_events`, and `list_services`. - Enables Home Assistant automation workflows by calling services, firing events, and rendering templates against the connected instance. - Documents a schema-first workflow using `oo connector schema` before running actions, plus clear safety guidance for state-changing operations.
