Claude Code can now show your Home Assistant beside the chat. Ask it to set the lights and the dashboard pane lights them up as your home reports it.
Automations, ESPHome, health, dashboards. One install:
/plugin install vome-panes --marketplace Vortitron/home-assistant-mcp
Mosaic 0.7: a Windows Phone–style Start screen for Home Assistant. Live tiles turn over to their controls, your house drawn floor by floor with who's where, and settings that start from the device. Free and open source. Try the demo: housefly.vome.io/mosaic
Voice is of course the worst way of communicating, so for the lols we built in the ability to call up your home assistant you the Vome app.
Not just commands, anything our mcp can do.. write automations, report of stuff, anything. Utterly daft and no need.. just like this...
We believe voice is the most natural way to interact with intelligence, so we created Dessa, the most authentic full-duplex speech model ever built. Talking with it feels like talking with a person…full of emotion, nuance, pauses, and a natural cadence.

Heating home water with bitcoin has come and gone many times, but this still seems interesting as it's a straight swap of the element.
Might make more economic sense than swapping to a heat pump if you happen to have this style of thing?
@grok what are the economics?
Cameras from anywhere: WebRTC camera feeds now get through mobile networks and strict NATs via Vome's own relay. No third party, and the video stays encrypted end to end. Comes with the Vome integration 0.9.40 or newer.
New: an end-to-end encrypted address for your Home Assistant. The connection stays sealed from your phone into your home; Vome passes it on but can't read it. Your HA makes its own key and keeps it. How it works: vome.io/remote-access/end-to…

Can your Home Assistant run Doom? Ours does, and the level is the house.
Shoot the lamp: the light goes off.
The spider is a real fruit-fly brain.
The front door asks Y/N before it unlocks.
The robot vacuum is a demon.
Free on HACS: github.com/Vortitron/housewa…

The other panes: the home's health score, with a Fix button on each finding, and the automation Claude is working on, with the steps its last run took.
The repo: github.com/Vortitron/home-as…
Although if you did want to run it in a datacentre rather than have a homelab, try Vome.io
Still no lock-in, data is still private and yours.
(and you can still connect Home Assistant Link to it to pay your dues!)
Big Tech ruined the cloud. So we’re renaming ours. ☁️
Home Assistant Cloud is now Home Assistant Link: an optional service from Nabu Casa for remote access, voice assistants, off-site backups & more, without cloud dependency.

I tried to make it dynamic so perhaps it is a little too random, messy and strange, but it is what it is and it'll cost you tokens to run too
Claude Code can now build and flash your ESPHome devices, and you can watch it happen 🔧
Free with the Vome app for Home Assistant, no sign-up, no ports opened:

With the Pi getting evermore expensive, a virtual Home Assistant starts to make sense.
The local device for radios and VPN can make do with half a gig.
The plan is also to try & fit in a backup controller so you can do basic things when the internet dies (if you don't have CHAP)
Due to the continuing rise in the cost of memory, we’ve had to raise the prices of our 2GB Raspberry Pi 4 and Raspberry Pi 5 products. Eben explains the cost increase – along with ways to ensure you’re not paying for more memory and processing power than you need – in today’s blog post.

Now with multiple flies (including an evil one) housefly.vome.io/
With a demo running on VomeHome, we used the map of the fly brain to see what it could do for @home_assistant
... not much really!
