More Information

My Tadiran is an unofficial Homebridge platform plugin for Tadiran air conditioners paired with the current My Tadiran app.

The plugin connects directly to Tadiran's cloud API and does not require Home Assistant.

The current release, v0.1.5, has been validated on a real My Tadiran installation using Homebridge 2.4.0 and Node.js 24, including authentication, device discovery, HomeKit exposure, temperature control, operating modes, and fan-speed control.

Authentication uses Tadiran's AWS Cognito SMS OTP flow. After the initial login, the refresh token is stored only inside Homebridge's persistent storage directory.

The plugin:

  • has no analytics or user tracking
  • does not require TTY or non-standard startup parameters
  • uses a dynamic platform and Homebridge Settings UI
  • catches and logs its own operational errors
  • stores authentication state inside Homebridge persistent storage
  • includes GitHub Actions CI for Node.js 22 and 24
  • publishes matching npm and GitHub releases

The implementation is based on the foundational My Tadiran API reverse-engineering and Home Assistant integration work by Raz Luvaton:
