⚠ This skill is no longer available upstream. Our re-check on Aug 10, 2026 couldn't find it any more (repo unreachable/deleted). The test below is what we measured on Jul 19, 2026 and we're leaving it up as a record — but there is nothing left to install, so we've removed the command.
A thin cheat-sheet over the external mijiaAPI CLI (v4.1.3), which it documents accurately: set --prop_name/--value and get --prop_name match the live CLI. Output was unmeasurable because every device command hits a hard Xiaomi QR-login wall (auth file missing, 'run login') and also needs real Mijia hardware on the account, neither available in test. Since the skill bundles no scripts, its whole value is reminding the agent of a self-documenting CLI's syntax.
Scored on four weighted criteria — install, triggering, output vs. baseline, docs. How scoring works
- Installs cleanly 5/5
- Triggers reliably 5/5
- Output vs. baseline 5/10
- Docs & honesty 4/5
What Mijia Device Manager does
Documents how to control Xiaomi/Mijia smart-home devices by driving the external mijiaAPI CLI through the Xiaomi cloud, covering device discovery, on/off, brightness, colour and scenes. It ships no scripts of its own, only the command syntax and a device-property reference. Triggers when a user wants to control a Mijia device, list devices, or read device state.
How to install Mijia Device Manager
Nothing to install: the source repository no longer has this skill. If the author brings it back, our daily re-check will pick it up and the command will reappear here.
