IoT Smart Home Agent

A governed AI agent for smart home control with safety constraints and privacy protection.

Use Case

Smart home systems need AI agents that:

• Prevent dangerous device combinations
• Protect occupant privacy
• Enforce safety overrides
• Log all device commands for security

Governance Features

Feature	Implementation
Safety Constraints	Block dangerous device combinations
Privacy Protection	Camera/mic controls with consent
Emergency Override	Safety systems always accessible
Audit Trail	Log all commands for security
Rate Limiting	Prevent rapid on/off cycling

Quick Start

pip install agent-os-kernel[full]
python main.py
