TuyaClaw is a desktop AI automation assistant built around the Tuya IoT ecosystem. It lets you control smart home devices, operate desktop applications, and run web scraping tasks through a unified AI interface — without relying on cloud-only workflows. Key capabilities include IoT device control (lights, sensors, switches), multimodal sensing to react to on-screen or environmental changes, desktop software automation, and extensible AI integrations. It's designed for power users who want their AI assistant to act beyond a browser tab — reaching into their local machine and connected devices. Useful for home lab enthusiasts, automation hobbyists, and anyone building personal productivity workflows that span digital and physical environments.
