Control

Control finds the smart devices on your network and gives them one app instead of one per brand. It currently speaks to Yeelight bulbs and strips, Tuya / Smart Life plugs, and Broadlink IR hubs. Through a Broadlink hub it also drives devices that were never smart: for an AC it tests several remote code sets at once to find the one that works, and for a TV or fan you press each button on the old remote once and it learns it.

The engine is Python with FastAPI, built on existing open source device libraries, and serves a SvelteKit web app designed for phone and desktop equally. Phones connect over the LAN by scanning a QR code and approving a pairing code, and on iPhone it installs to the Home Screen like a native app. Next up are a Windows tray app, scenes, and an MCP server so Claude can switch things on and off.
