SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill enables agents to automate control and telemetry retrieval for Tesla vehicles through the tescmd node, turning manual vehicle interactions into repeatable workflows.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Monitor battery, climate, location, and security status.
  • Execute vehicle actions like lock/unlock, start/stop charging, and navigate to destinations.
  • Discover nearby Superchargers and assemble multi-step routes as part of automated scenarios.

Quick Start

Ensure a tescmd node is running and connected to the Gateway, or use the tescmd CLI in fallback mode. Try commands like tescmd_node_status or tescmd_get_battery to verify connectivity and start building automations.

FAQPage Schema
How do I automate Tesla vehicle control and telemetry retrieval in my workflows?

Automate Tesla vehicle control and telemetry retrieval by connecting a running tescmd node to the Gateway, or using the tescmd CLI in fallback mode. This enables workflow automation for status monitoring, climate adjustments, and multi-step vehicle actions across connected Teslas.

Can I monitor my Tesla's battery, climate, and location status programmatically?

Monitor battery, climate, and location status programmatically by calling tools like tescmd_get_battery and tescmd_node_status. These tools retrieve real-time telemetry from connected Tesla vehicles, turning manual vehicle interactions into repeatable automated workflows.

What's the best way to send navigation routes to a Tesla automatically?

Send navigation routes to a Tesla automatically using the tescmd_nav_send tool. You can discover nearby Superchargers and assemble multi-step routes as part of automated scenarios, enabling seamless destination routing without manual app interaction.

Does tescmd support remote charging and security actions for Tesla vehicles?

tescmd supports remote charging and security actions for Tesla vehicles. Use tescmd_start_charge to begin charging and tescmd_lock_doors to secure the vehicle, executing these actions as part of automated vehicle control workflows.

Do I need a running tescmd node connected to the Gateway to control my Tesla?

You need a running tescmd node connected to the Gateway to control your Tesla, or you can use the tescmd CLI in fallback mode. Verify connectivity with tescmd_node_status before building automations.
