“Not supported” is no longer the answer
Your eisy can now build plugins for what it’s missing
You’ve had the idea. Something out there, a gadget, a service, a signal from the world, that you wish your smart home could integrate with. Something strange, clever, or only you would think of. Maybe it exists today. Maybe it doesn’t yet.
You’ve checked the Store, and it’s not there. You’ve searched the forums, and nobody’s built it. So it stays an idea, a wish, and maybe a prayer.
“Not supported” is no longer the answer.
Meet eisy-ai [ user guide – community discussions ], a new optional plugin for your eisy. Tell it what you want your plugin to do and/or integrate with, and it does the rest:
- Checks first. It looks in the plugin Store in case someone has already built it.
- Does the homework. It reads the documentation to learn how the thing talks.
- Designs it with you. It proposes what it should show and do on your eisy, and you adjust it in plain English.
- Builds it. It writes the plugin.
- Tests it on your own eisy. You see each stage as it installs and starts.
Nothing changes on your eisy until you install it, and what you build stays in your own private sandbox.
And it helps you keep your home in order. Ask:
- “What’s wrong with my master bedroom scene?”
- “Why didn’t the hallway switch respond this morning?”
- “What’s the pattern of my pool controller over the last 3 months?”
- “I’m leaving tomorrow and won’t be back until the day after Black Friday. Give my home a random, lived-in look while I’m gone.”
It builds routines from a description, explains the ones you’ve forgotten, and investigates when something misbehaves. Before it deletes anything, it shows you what will happen and waits for you to reply YES.
Your eisy is no longer limited to what existed the day you bought it. If you can imagine it, eisy-ai can try to build it.
eisy-ai works with an AI service you provide: Claude, OpenAI, Gemini, Grok, or a local option.
