My smart home kept improving itself while I was away

I am travelling, and the house is not just sitting there idle. My automation system keeps working through its own list of improvements and fixes while I am gone.

Every day I get a short summary of what happened at home: what broke, what got repaired, what is still open. The dashboard in the video is the live view of that — tasks going in on one side, finished work coming out on the other.

The point is not that it is fully autonomous. The point is that I can be a few thousand kilometres away and still know exactly what state my home is in.
