Install with your agent
Agent handoff
Hand the extracted package to your coding agent with a concrete install brief instead of figuring it out manually.
- Download the package from Yavira.
- Extract it into a folder your agent can access.
- Paste one of the prompts below and point your agent at the extracted folder.
New install
I downloaded a skill package from Yavira. Read SKILL.md from the extracted folder and install it by following the included instructions. Tell me what you changed and call out any manual steps you could not complete.
Upgrade existing
I downloaded an updated skill package from Yavira. Read SKILL.md from the extracted folder, compare it with my current installation, and upgrade it while preserving any custom configuration unless the package docs explicitly say otherwise. Summarize what changed and any follow-up checks I should run.

Nest SDM Skill
Control and monitor Google Nest devices via the Smart Device Management REST API.
Prerequisites
Device Access Console — Register at https://console.nest.google.com/device-access ($5 one-time fee) GCP Project — Create at https://console.cloud.google.com with SDM API enabled OAuth Client — Web application type with https://www.google.com as redirect URI SDM scope — Add https://www.googleapis.com/auth/sdm.service to OAuth consent screen
First-time Authorization
Build the authorization URL: https://nestservices.google.com/partnerconnections/<PROJECT_ID>/auth?redirect_uri=https://www.google.com&access_type=offline&prompt=consent&client_id=<CLIENT_ID>&response_type=code&scope=https://www.googleapis.com/auth/sdm.service Open in browser, sign in as the device owner Google account Enable ALL device permissions, click Next, then Continue through consent Copy the code= parameter from the redirect URL Exchange for tokens: curl -s -X POST https://oauth2.googleapis.com/token \ -d "client_id=<CLIENT_ID>" \ -d "client_secret=<CLIENT_SECRET>" \ -d "code=<AUTH_CODE>" \ -d "grant_type=authorization_code" \ -d "redirect_uri=https://www.google.com" Save tokens to the config file (see Configuration below)
Configuration
Create ~/.openclaw/workspace/.nest-sdm-tokens.json: { "client_id": "<your-client-id>", "client_secret": "<your-client-secret>", "project_id": "<device-access-project-id>", "refresh_token": "<your-refresh-token>", "token_type": "Bearer", "scope": "https://www.googleapis.com/auth/sdm.service" } Secure it: chmod 600 ~/.openclaw/workspace/.nest-sdm-tokens.json
CLI Usage
# Alias for convenience alias nest="<skill-dir>/nest-sdm.sh"
Device Discovery
nest devices # List all devices (JSON) nest structures # List structures/rooms
Thermostat
nest thermostat # Current status (temp, humidity, mode, setpoints) nest set-cool <°F> # Set to COOL mode at temperature nest set-heat <°F> # Set to HEAT mode at temperature nest set-range <low°F> <high°F> # Set HEATCOOL range nest set-mode <MODE> # HEAT | COOL | HEATCOOL | OFF nest set-eco <MODE> # MANUAL_ECO | OFF nest fan-on [duration_seconds] # Turn fan on (default: 900s / 15min) nest fan-off # Turn fan off
Doorbell & Cameras
nest doorbell # Doorbell info & capabilities nest display # Kitchen display info nest camera-stream <DEVICE_ID> # Generate WebRTC live stream (returns SDP answer) nest camera-image <EVENT_ID> # Get event snapshot URL
Raw API
nest api GET devices # Raw device list nest api GET devices/<DEVICE_ID> # Single device nest api POST devices/<DEVICE_ID>:executeCommand '{"command":"...","params":{...}}'

Pub/Sub Real-Time Events
Get instant alerts for doorbell presses, motion, person detection, and device state changes.
CLI: nest-events
nest-events setup-check # Verify Pub/Sub config is ready nest-events create-topic # Create GCP Pub/Sub topic nest-events grant-permissions # Grant SDM publisher role nest-events create-subscription # Create pull subscription nest-events poll # Pull events once nest-events listen # Poll continuously (daemon)
Setup Steps
OAuth with Pub/Sub scope — Run OAuth flow as your-email@example.com with pubsub + cloud-platform scopes. Save tokens to .nest-pubsub-tokens.json. Create topic — nest-events create-topic (creates projects/YOUR_GCP_PROJECT/topics/nest-sdm-events) Grant permissions — nest-events grant-permissions (adds sdm-publisher@googlegroups.com) Create subscription — nest-events create-subscription Enable in Device Access Console — https://console.nest.google.com/device-access → Enable Pub/Sub → Enter topic ID Trigger initial events — nest devices (one-time API call) Start listener — nest-events listen

Event Logs
Raw events are logged to data/nest-events/events-YYYY-MM-DD.jsonl.
Alert Dedup
Same event type won't re-alert within 60 seconds to prevent alert fatigue.
Important Notes
Token expiry: If the GCP app is in "testing" mode, refresh tokens expire in 7 days. Publish the app to avoid re-auth. Temperature: API uses Celsius internally. The CLI handles F↔C conversion. Setpoint constraints: HEATCOOL range must have at least 1.5°C (2.7°F) gap between heat and cool setpoints. Camera streams: WebRTC only (no RTSP). Requires SDP offer/answer exchange. Rate limits: 10 queries/min per device, 10 commands/min per device. Events: Use nest-events listen for real-time alerts. Requires Pub/Sub setup (see above).
Category context
Code helpers, APIs, CLIs, browser automation, testing, and developer operations.
