Travel Mode
Trigger on "travel mode", "I'm going on a trip", "starting a vacation",
"旅行モード", "出かける / 旅行に行く" when the context suggests
multi-day absence (rather than a short errand — that's leave_home).
Default flow
- Check weather for destination if provided — if the user named a
city ("I'm going to Kyoto"), call
get_forecast with that location
so we can speak a 3-day outlook.
- Departure briefing — speak a short summary: "Heading to {city}.
Forecast is {summary}. I'll wind down the house now." Keep it
under two sentences.
- Lights:
execute_command {device_type:"light", action:"turn_off"}
for every light; don't just run leave_home because that keeps
front-door lighting on a timer for short absences.
- Media: pause everything via
execute_command action:"media_pause".
- Timers:
cancel_all_timers — no alarms firing in an empty house.
- Multi-room goodbye (if enabled):
broadcast_tts with
{ text: "Travel mode — see you soon." } so other rooms' speakers
announce the house is going quiet. Skip cleanly when multi-room is
off or the secret is missing.
- Notifications: do NOT silence notifications at the OS level — we
don't have that privilege. Just leave them alone; the user's phone
still works.
On return
Trigger on "I'm back", "we're home from the trip", "帰ってきた":
- Run
arrive_home composite (lights on, volume 50).
- Summarise what happened:
list_notifications for today, spoken
headline count; get_weather for today.
- Speak: "Welcome home. {N} notifications waiting, {weather}."
Style
- Voice tone: warm, brief. Travel mode is a goodbye, not a checklist.
- Don't offer to set reminders about the trip — that's out of scope;
the user can ask separately.
What this skill doesn't do
- Locking doors or arming any security system — out of scope; we have
no verified smart-lock binding to a specific "arm" action.
- Booking anything — we intentionally don't transact on the user's
behalf.
- Forwarding calls — OS-level telephony is out of reach.
