Smart Home Shift-Based Climate Control
OpenClaw reads CalDAV calendar for nurse shift schedules (day/night shifts) and automatically adjusts home climate. Day shift: bathroom heating turns on at 5am to warm tiles before early shift. Night shift: bedroom ventilation activates after shift to reduce CO2 exposure, shades and lights set to sleep mode.
