br0wnserver Home Assistant

br0wnserver Home Assistant is a private, self-hosted home automation system run by the owner of ryanbrown.engineer for a single household. It is not a public service and is not offered to anyone else.

What it does

It connects to the household's own Google Nest devices (three thermostats and one doorbell) through Google's Smart Device Management API, so the household can:

• See and change thermostat temperature and mode from one dashboard, alongside the home's other smart switches.
• Get doorbell press and motion notifications and view the doorbell camera on the household's own server.

Google data it uses

It requests only the https://www.googleapis.com/auth/sdm.service permission, and only for the Nest devices the account holder selects on Google's consent screen. It does not access email, contacts, files, or any other Google data.
