Home‑Assistant – n8n Agent Skill

This skill bridges OpenClaw with your n8n instance for Home Assistant automation.

How it works

Uses curl to trigger a n8n workflow for all things related to IoT. All requests should be a POST formatted as follows: curl -X POST http://localhost:5678/webhook/05f3f217-08b9-42de-a84a-e13f135bde73 -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{"chatInput": "USERS QUESTION/REQUEST", "requestType": "DETERMINED REQUEST TYPE", "sessionId":"openclaw"}'

Steps

Determine whether the user's prompt is an IoT inquiry.

1. Is the inquiry about a current device state or multiple states? If so, requestType is state
2. Is the inquiry asking for a device state to be changed? If so, requestType is action
3. Is the inquiry asking about IoT data from the past? If so, requestType is historical.
