Config

Set your config ~/.config/clim8/config.yaml

# Your Eight Sleep credentials
email: your@email.com
password: your-password

# Schedule for automated control (optional)
schedule:
  - time: "22:00"    # 10:00 PM - Turn on
    action: "on"
  - time: "22:15"    # 10:15 PM - Set temperature  
    action: "temp"
    temperature: "68F"
  - time: "01:00"    # 1:00 AM - Lower temp for deep sleep
    action: "temp"
    temperature: "65F"
  - time: "06:00"    # 6:00 AM - Turn off
    action: "off"
  - time: "22:30"    # Optional: control another side with left, right or both
    action: "on"
    side: "right"

Manual Commands

You can also control your Eight Sleep pod manually:

# Turn on the pod
clim8 on

# Set temperature (turns on automatically)
clim8 temp 68F

# Turn off the pod
clim8 off

# Check status: both sides, water level, priming, hub health
clim8 status
clim8 status --json

# Control the other side of the bed, or both
clim8 on --side both
clim8 temp 66F --side right

# Hold a temperature for a while; the side then turns off unless something else is scheduled
clim8 temp 72F --for 2h

# Change an Autopilot level (bedtime, initial or final) without applying it now
clim8 temp 66F --stage final

# Pause a side while travelling (shown as AWAY in `clim8 status`)
clim8 away on
clim8 away off

# Alarms
clim8 alarm list
clim8 alarm create 07:30 --vibration 60
clim8 alarm disable <id>
clim8 alarm snooze --minutes 9   # the alarm that is ringing
clim8 alarm dismiss

# Last night's sleep
clim8 sleep
clim8 sleep --date 2026-09-20 --json

# Start a priming cycle
clim8 prime

Commands act on your own side unless you pass --side left, --side right or --side both. Alarms and sleep data belong to one person, so those take left or right only.

Daemon Scheduler

The daemon command runs a background scheduler that automatically controls your Eight Sleep pod based on your configured schedule.

# Run daemon manually
clim8 daemon

# Test your schedule without executing actions
clim8 daemon --dry-run

# Install as system service via homebrew
brew services start blacktop/tap/clim8

The daemon will:

• Execute actions at scheduled times throughout the night
• Automatically restart if it crashes
• Log all activity to /usr/local/var/log/clim8.log
• Run continuously in the background
