Counts unlabeled, assigned, unassigned, milestoned, demilestoned, locked, unlocked over the last 12 months. These are issue and pull request events that require triage or write permission. Commits and code review are not counted. labeled and renamed are excluded because GitHub issue forms record the issue author as the actor. Figures from October 18, 2026. This count is not comparable across projects: each project's automation decides which of these events a person emits. How this is counted.

Detailed Description

Gladys is a privacy-first, open-source home automation platform that runs locally on your hardware.

The project addresses the privacy and vendor lock-in concerns of cloud-dependent smart home systems by providing a self-hosted alternative. It operates as a local assistant that integrates with various IoT devices and home automation protocols without requiring data transmission to external servers. The platform is built on Node.js and runs on hardware ranging from Raspberry Pi devices to more powerful machines, giving users direct control over their home automation infrastructure and data.

Gladys suits users who prioritize privacy and data sovereignty in their smart home setup, particularly those comfortable managing their own hardware and preferring open-source solutions. It works well for people already invested in home automation who want a unified control point for disparate devices and systems. The project is appropriate for both hobbyists experimenting with home automation and those seeking a production-grade alternative to commercial cloud-based assistants.

The project maintains steady development activity with regular commits across its codebase. Work spans both core platform improvements and expansion of device integrations, indicating ongoing effort to broaden compatibility with different smart home ecosystems. The maintainers actively address issues and pull requests, suggesting responsive stewardship of the codebase. Development appears distributed across multiple areas of the system rather than concentrated in a single component, reflecting a maturing project with diverse technical needs.
