            How to use Vega

            Welcome

            Vega is your smart-home assistant. Ask it anything about your home in plain English and it will check the live status of your system and answer.

            You sign in with a passkey on your phone or laptop — no passwords to remember, no app to install.

            Just ask

            Type your question in the box at the bottom and press send. The assistant will look up the live state of your home and reply in a few seconds. Here are some examples to try:

            • "How's my system doing?"
            • "Is the power on, or am I on battery?"
            • "Is Home Assistant working?"
            • "Has anything gone wrong recently?"
            • "How much battery do I have, and how long will it last?"
            • "Is my smart-home radio connected?"
            • "Can the cameras see anything right now?"

            If a question doesn't get the answer you wanted, try rephrasing — natural language works best.

            Your conversations

            The left sidebar keeps every chat you've had. Click + New chat to start fresh; click a row to revisit an old conversation; hover a row to delete one you don't want anymore.

            The status cards at the top

            The strip across the top shows what's going on with your home at a glance. When everything is normal the cards stay a calm neutral gray. Amber means something to keep an eye on; red means something needs your attention. Each card auto-refreshes about once a minute.

            System
            A single overall health indicator — neutral gray when everything is fine, otherwise it surfaces the worst signal. The small dots below show whether the CPU, memory, disk, network, radio, and logging are each healthy.
            Battery
            A phone-style battery icon showing your backup power level and whether you're on utility power or running on the battery. If the lightning bolt appears, you're on battery.
            Cellular
            Five-bar signal strength on your backup internet connection. Stays neutral when registered and signal is good.
            Home Assistant
            Click to open your Home Assistant dashboard in a new tab. The card turns red if Home Assistant isn't reachable.
            Frigate
            Click to open your camera system in a new tab.

            If you want more detail, click the small Advanced button under the cards to see a full breakdown of each signal. Switch back any time with Simple.

            The red alert bar

            A red bar appears above the cards only when something needs you to look — for example, your house lost power, your internet went down, or Home Assistant stopped responding. If you see one, ask the assistant what it sees and it'll explain.

            The badges in the top bar

            ChatBot
            Tells you whether the assistant itself is working. Click for details.
            C&C
            Tells you whether the connection between the assistant and your home is healthy. Click for details.

            If something looks wrong

            If a card has been red for a while, just ask the assistant what it sees — it usually knows. If the page itself seems frozen, refresh your browser (hold Shift while clicking Reload, or press Cmd-Shift-R / Ctrl-Shift-R).
