🆕 New Community Ability
Ability Name:
community/home-assistant-voice-controlWhat does it do?
Voice-controlled interface for Home Assistant via REST API. Control lights, switches, covers, sensors, sirens, media players, and shopping lists — all hands-free. Uses LLM-based intent classification with fuzzy entity name matching so users can say natural phrases like "turn off the kitchen light" or "add milk to my shopping list" without knowing exact entity IDs.
Key features:

LLM Intent Classification: Uses the platform's built-in
text_to_text_responsewith a structured system prompt. Returns JSON with action, entity_id, service_data, and a natural spoken response. Handles markdown code fences in LLM output gracefully.Safety confirmations: Actions like
open_cover,close_cover,activate_siren, anddeactivate_sirenrequire voice confirmation viarun_confirmation_loop()before execution.Entity registry: Builds a compact entity list from HA's
/api/statesendpoint, filtered to actionable domains only (light,switch,cover,media_player,siren,binary_sensor,sensor,todo). This keeps LLM context focused and fast.
