Platforms count differently and update at different times.
Tessie is a Tesla management platform with 500,000+ users; this skill uses its API to check battery level, range, location, and vehicle state (locked/unlocked, charging, sleep, online), control climate (start/stop, preheat/precool with auto Fahrenheit/Celsius detection, defrost) and charging (start/stop, charge limit, charging status), and review recent drives (distance, energy, locations). Create an API key at https://tessie.com/developers and configure TESSIE_API_KEY; vehicle ID and VIN are auto-detected. All requests use Authorization: Bearer, and control commands are issued by VIN (e.g. start_climate, set_charge_limit, lock, enable_sentry). Notes: the Tesla account must be linked to Tessie first; the source is explicitly marked NOT YET DEPLOYED (prepared pending user review).

```yaml
skills:
entries:
tessie:
apiKey: "your-tessie-api-key-here"
```
Or via environment variable:
```bash
export TESSIE_API_KEY="your-tessie-api-key-here"
```
**Note**: Vehicle ID and VIN are auto-detected from API. No manual configuration needed.
## Capabilities
### Vehicle Status
- **Battery level**: Current state of charge percentage
- **Range**: Estimated driving range
- **Location**: Current vehicle coordinates
- **Vehicle state**: Locked/unlocked, charging status, sleep mode
- **Connection**: Is the car online/offline?
### Climate Control
- **Start/stop**: Turn climate on or off
- **Preheat/precool**: Set cabin temperature (auto-detects Fahrenheit/Celsius)
- **Defrost**: Defrost windows/mirrors
### Charging
- **Start/stop**: Control charging remotely
- **Charge limit**: Set daily/standard charge limit
- **Charging status**: Current rate, time to complete, battery level
### Drives
- **Recent drives**: Last trips with distance, energy, locations
## Usage Examples
```
# Check battery and range
"tessie battery"
"tessie how much charge"
"tessie range"
# Preheat the car (assumes Fahrenheit if > 50)
"tessie preheat 72"
"tessie precool"
"tessie turn on climate"
# Check drives
"tessie show my drives"
"tessie recent drives"
"tessie drives 5"
# Charging commands
"tessie start charging"
"tessie stop charging"
"tessie set charge limit to 90%"
"tessie charging status"
# Vehicle location
"tessie where is my car"
"tessie location"
# Vehicle state
"tessie is the car locked?"
"tessie vehicle status"
```

## Notes
- Tessie acts as a middleman between you and Tesla's API
- Provides richer data and analytics than raw Tesla API
- Requires Tesla account to be linked to Tessie first
- API uses VIN for commands (auto-detected)
- All temperatures in Celsius internally
- **NOT YET DEPLOYED** - Prepared for deployment pending user review
