The Tuya cloud is used once, to download each bulb's key, and never again. - **A CLI you'll actually use.** `l` toggles the room, `l bed 20` dims the bed lamp, `l sleep 30m` turns everything off later. Output is painted in the colour the bulb shows. - **Works in Claude Desktop too, on any plan**, including ambient mode. - **Claude Code integration.** A `/light` command that understands "fireplace vibe on the desk in 10 minutes". Lights turn red when your tests fail and flash green when they pass again. An optional ambient mode lets Claude set the mood while it works. --- ## Contents - [How it works](#how-it-works) - [Requirements](#requirements) - [Setup](#setup) 1.
