ruvnet/RuView

Camera-free sensing: turning WiFi CSI into pose and vitals data — RuView uses ESP32 CSI firmware and pretrained DensePose-style models to estimate pose, breathing, and heart rate from WiFi signals without any camera. It ships with Home Assistant integration, an AI agent toolkit, and Hugging Face models, aimed at privacy-conscious smart-home and IoT builders wanting presence/vital-sign sensing without video.

home-assistant/home-assistant.io

The Jekyll source behind Home Assistant's official docs site — This repo powers home-assistant.io, built with Jekyll and open to community contributions. It offers production, beta, and dev branches plus Netlify PR previews, making it useful for anyone wanting to improve or track Home Assistant documentation.

homeassistant-ai/ha-mcp

87-tool MCP server lets AI assistants run your Home Assistant setup — ha-mcp exposes 87 tools via the Model Context Protocol so AI assistants like Claude can control smart home devices, query states, and execute services using natural language. Built with FastMCP and distributed via HACS, it targets Home Assistant users who want LLM-driven automation beyond the official integration, with ongoing fast-paced releases (now v7.3.0).

A pop-up-focused custom card collection for Home Assistant dashboards — Bubble Card brings minimalist, highly customizable cards to Home Assistant, built around modern pop-ups, button stacks, and climate/media/cover widgets. Its built-in Module Store offers over 100 community-made add-ons, making it appealing to HACS users who want a polished, template-friendly dashboard without heavy custom YAML work.

ulsklyc/yuvomi

A privacy-first, self-hosted alternative to family subscription apps — Yuvomi bundles tasks, calendar, budget, meals and household planning into one self-hosted app, replacing multiple family subscriptions. It ships with 20 modules, 26 languages, optional AES-256 database encryption, and no trackers—data stays on your own server.

rorygallagher2024/glasshouse

A local-first control server for rooted LG webOS TVs — Glasshouse runs on rooted LG webOS TVs (2.2–11, 2015–2026 models) to give a live dashboard, ad/telemetry blocking, debloating, OLED panel-wear tools, and a custom home screen—entirely locally with no cloud dependency. An optional MQTT bridge connects the TV to Home Assistant for smart-home automation, making it useful for privacy-focused tinkerers who rooted their TV via Homebrew Channel.

wilbowes/EchoMuse

Repurpose a 2016 Echo Dot as a cloud-free HA voice satellite — EchoMuse replaces the firmware on a second-gen Echo Dot so it works as a local ESPHome voice satellite for Home Assistant, using Assist instead of Alexa. No Amazon account or cloud needed; it runs as an add-on or Docker container. Useful for hobbyists wanting to repurpose cheap secondhand hardware, though setup requires a USB unlock step (firebreak) with some brick risk.

Local HTTPS and MQTT cloud emulator for Roborock vacuums without rooting or hardware modifications

mbillow/localthings

Cloud-free Home Assistant control for Samsung SmartThings devices — LocalThings is a HACS integration that talks directly to Samsung washers, dryers, fridges, ACs and more over the local network via CoAP, skipping Samsung's cloud entirely after setup.

Repurposing Echo hardware as offline Home Assistant satellites — EchoLocal is a pure-Go firmware replacement that strips Amazon's cloud services from Echo Dot and Echo Show devices, turning them into local voice satellites, media players, and displays. It speaks ESPHome's native API, so Home Assistant auto-discovers these repurposed devices like any other ESPHome hardware, appealing to privacy-focused smart home tinkerers.
