SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill requires eightctl.

What problem does it solve? Managing an Eight Sleep pod normally requires the mobile app, making it hard to automate or script bed temperature, alarms, and schedules from the command line or an AI assistant. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Pod Control: Check status, turn the pod on or off, and set target temperature with simple commands like eightctl temp 20. - Alarms & Schedules: List, create, update, and dismiss alarms and temperature schedules programmatically. - Audio & Base: Inspect and control audio playback and adjustable base angle. - Use Case: Ask your assistant to lower the bed temperature to 20 degrees and confirm tomorrow's alarm is set, without opening the Eight Sleep app. ## Quick Start Ask the assistant to check your Eight Sleep pod status and set the temperature to 20 degrees using eightctl.
