Status: Private staging — approved public field-evidence snapshot

Derived from the private HomeLog Agent Log for July 26, 2026. Names, infrastructure details, and unrelated production work have been removed.

Executive summary

During one field session at a family-run shop, two people who did not build HomeLog spoke four Thai requests into LINE using ordinary speech-to-text. Each request was followed by a measurable change in the intended physical device.

This was the first recorded evidence that non-founder household members could operate HomeLog through natural language in a real environment. It demonstrated a working interaction loop; it did not establish general reliability or a finished product.

Field record

Date: July 26, 2026

Window: 20:23–20:25 ICT

Environment: A real family shop with connected lights and a fan

Input method: Thai speech-to-text in LINE

Person Spoken request English meaning Measured result Time
Mother “ปิดไฟครัวให้หน่อย” “Please turn off the kitchen light” 24.6W → 0W 15 seconds
Father “ปิดไฟครัว” “Turn off the kitchen light” 24.6W → 0W 24 seconds
Father “เปิดพัดลมหน้าเคาเตอร์” “Turn on the fan at the front counter” 0W → 40.4W 54 seconds
Father “ปิดพัดลมหน้าเคาเตอร์” “Turn off the fan at the front counter” 37.1W → 0W 20 seconds

The power readings were used as physical evidence that the intended devices changed state. The users did not open the device-control interface during these requests.

What the interaction path looked like

At a high level, the successful path was:

spoken Thai request
→ LINE message
→ intent interpretation
→ identity and permission check
→ deterministic device resolution
→ queued command
→ physical relay
→ measured power change

The language model participated in interpreting the request. It did not receive authority to choose an arbitrary device or bypass household permissions. Device resolution and execution remained constrained by the system around it.

This distinction matters because an AI in a physical execution path must fail toward not acting when meaning or authority is uncertain.

What this proved

The session provided operational evidence that:
