What problem does it solve?

Philips Hue lights are easy to control manually but automating or scripting lighting workflows can be tedious without a CLI. This skill provides a robust command-line interface to manage Hue lights, query state, and apply batch actions—without needing a GUI.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Authenticate to the mocked Hue bridge and manage credentials
  • List all lights and query individual light state
  • Set lights on/off by ID or by room, and reset all lights to defaults
  • Retrieve version/schema information and ensure compatibility for automation
  • Output machine-readable JSON envelopes for scripting and agents, with consistent error handling

Quick Start

Install the CLI, authenticate, and run a sample command to turn on kitchen lights with JSON output.
