You can control Xiaomi smart plugs and humidifiers over a local network by using the miiocli tool to directly communicate with devices via LAN, bypassing cloud APIs for faster response. The Skill provides pre-configured workflows for immediate device manipulation.

To get the device IP and token for Mi Home local control, run the built-in token_extractor.py script which fetches the required credentials from Xiaomi Cloud. You then populate references/devices.md with this information to enable LAN communication.

Yes, local Mi Home device control requires a Python runtime environment because it relies on the miiocli tool. The Skill includes an automatic dependency fix to resolve Python package conflicts and ensure it works out of the box.

The best way to check MIOT properties for a Xiaomi rice cooker without cloud access is using local network control via miiocli. This enables direct LAN communication for status checks and property manipulation without relying on remote servers.

Supported Xiaomi devices for LAN-based status checks include smart plugs, humidifiers, and rice cookers. These pre-configured workflows allow direct local network manipulation of their MIOT properties without cloud API dependencies.

The miiocli tool may fail with Python dependency conflicts due to environment mismatches, but this Skill implements an automatic dependency fix to resolve them. This ensures the local network control setup works correctly out of the box.
