The summer of 2026 was anything but dull, and this edition reflects that: we've compiled 72 adapters for you.
22 of them are new to the stable repository and ready to use immediately, while the remaining 50 are in the latest repository and are waiting for testers.
The focus is once again on energy and e-mobility (Hoymiles, Victron GX, Solakon ONE, Tesla Wall Connector, go-e Charger), but cameras, multimedia, and system tools are also well represented.
And there are a few real rarities: Formula 1 live data, flight tracking from your window, and a sauna control system with a learning heating prediction feature.
The most exciting new addition, however, comes from the project itself: ioBroker.assistant, a voice assistant that unleashes a speech model directly on your states via tool calling.
Under the hood, it was probably the biggest overhaul in a long time: at the beginning of August, **Admin, JavaScript, Devices, and IoT were migrated to React 19 and MUI 9 within just a few days. Therefore, starting with version 8, Node.js 22 is the minimum requirement for the admin interface. Please check before updating!
Core Updates
Admin 7.9.x → 8.0.5
The admin has upgraded to version 8. The biggest single event of this period.
- ⚠️ Node.js 22 is mandatory from Admin 8.0.1 onwards. Anyone still running Node 20 or older must update beforehand.
- React 19 + MUI 9 (v8.0.1) – the entire user interface has been updated to the new major versions. Adapter configuration pages with custom components should be briefly checked after the update.
- Security fix (v8.0.2) – the authentication of OAuth2 callbacks has been corrected.
- Revised Initial Setup Assistant (v8.0.5) – modern layout, reverse navigation and many detailed corrections.
- Minor fixes: duplicate tiles in Quick Access when multiple
webinstances are present (v8.0.5), save button and validation in Custom Settings (v8.0.2–8.0.4), folder selection in the Alias dialog.
The AI assistant, familiar from the last review, is of course still on board.
This is what it looks like in practice. The overview page with system status, resource consumption, and system log at a glance:
And the adapter list in the tile view, sorted by "Recently Updated".
Practical for quickly seeing what's new:
Js-controller 7.2.2 “Milla”
Things have remained deliberately quiet regarding the js-controller during this period: The current version is still 7.2.2 from June 16, 2026 in the stable repository. Only nightly pre-release versions of the 7.2.3-alpha.x series were available on GitHub; these are not intended for production use.
Among the fixes planned for version 7.2.3 are two from @krobipd: Failed adapter installations were incorrectly reported as successful under npm ≥ 10.6.0, and automatic ENOTEMPTY recovery did not clean up the blocking npm temp directory.
🔗 js-controller changelog on GitHub
Vis-2 2.14.x → 2.15.4
vis-2 has received several noticeable improvements:
- ⚠️ Changed HTML IDs (v2.14.4) – Widgets that appear in multiple views are now called
v<view>_<widget>instead of<view>_<widget>. Anyone who has built their own CSS or scripts around these IDs needs to update them. - A crashing widget no longer takes the entire view down with it (v2.15.0) – instead, a placeholder appears.
- Relative widgets can once again be rearranged via drag & drop (v2.15.0), including a semi-transparent preview. The old arrow buttons have been removed.
- Editor Fine-tuning (v2.15.0) – new name tags on widgets, blue hover highlighting, and a common frame for multiple selections. Also includes MUI CSS variables (
--mui-palette-*) for custom themes. - Important fix for cloud users (v2.15.4) – Widget sets such as
vis-2-widgets-material,echarts,openweathermap,fullcalendar, andvis-2-widgets-energyno longer loaded via the cloud. Local installations with names likeiobroker.fritz.boxwere also incorrectly treated as cloud installations. - Module Federation (v2.15.0) – MUI is now shared per version instead of as a singleton, so widget sets can bring their own MUI version.
Important Adapter Updates
IoBroker.javascript 9.3.1 → 10.1.2
The JavaScript adapter has jumped to version 10 and cleaned things up considerably in the process.
- TypeScript 6 and React 19 / MUI 9 (v10.0.0)
- ⚠️
strictis disabled again for scripts (v10.1.0) – TypeScript 6 enabled it by default, which would have broken numerous existing scripts. Those who wish to enable it can find the compiler options in the new "TypeScript" tab in the settings. - Access data directly in the script (v10.1.1) – the credentials stored in the admin are available as
SECRETS(e.g.,SECRETS.CameraPassword.key), decrypted, read-only, and updated live. The editor autocompletes afterSECRETS., and Blockly has a new "credential" block. - Blockly 11 → 13 (v10.1.0) – Blockly now comes from the npm package instead of the repository; all block definitions have been converted to TypeScript. The generated code remains unchanged, and custom blocks from other adapters will continue to run.
- ⚠️ Blockly users should upgrade directly to 10.1.2: Under Blockly 13, scripts with named timeout, interval or schedule could no longer be saved – the save button simply did not appear.
- Fixed typing of external libraries (v10.1.0) – Previously, everything from additionally installed libraries was treated as
any, and theioBroker.*types were completely missing. Both of these issues have now been resolved. - New Rule Wizard (v10.1.0) – builds a rule step by step from trigger, condition and action and shows the finished result at the end.
- Data Security (v10.1.0) – Scripts are no longer deleted from the database if the entire mirror directory is lost, for example because a network share is not mounted.
IoBroker.devices 3.0.2 → 4.1.1
The Devices adapter has also been updated to a major version.
- React 19 and MUI 9 (v4.0.0), plus min/max values of the last 24 hours or day for widgets with history.
- ⚠️ Important Data Fix (v4.1.1) – Older versions wrote states without
common.read/common.write. When loading the device list, these states are now automatically repaired once to prevent a writeable state from incorrectly remaining read-only. Users of version 4.0.x should update. - New Widgets (v4.0.2) – button, buttonSensor, camera and vacuumCleaner no longer display "Widget type not supported". The media player now has a mute function and separate volume feedback, and the blind widgets have gained the missing tilt controls, including a stop button.
- New device types and an improved tank widget (v4.1.0) – Manually added data points now reach the widget GUI, so that a tank can display, for example, the remaining liters in addition to the fill level.
- Appearance (v4.0.2) – “Blue dark” has been redesigned to a deep navy look, category icons now have colored round badges, and new role icons for UV index, RPM, operating hours, and W/kW/Wh have been added. Info devices are no longer hidden by default, and there are user-defined views.
IoBroker.iot 6.1.3 → 7.0.1
The IoT adapter was also migrated to TypeScript 6 and React 19 on August 6, 2026.
There were no further changes to the content.
New adapters in latest – Testers wanted!
These 50 adapters are located in the latest repository and need exactly what the community does best: testing, providing feedback, and reporting bugs. Anyone who wants to participate should switch to latest in the admin panel under System → Repositories and keep in mind that this is beta software.
Incidentally, some of this has now been rectified: some of these adapters have been in the repository for quite some time and were overlooked in recent releases for various reasons. This doesn't make them any less interesting. On the contrary, some already have a considerable user base.
Voice assistants and AI
IoBroker.assistant – the voice assistant from the ioBroker team
Category: Logic / Voice Assistant Developer: ioBroker
The most exciting new addition in this review comes from the project itself. ioBroker.assistant is an LLM-powered voice and text assistant that you ask questions to in natural language, and which then reads and toggles any ioBroker state. No rigid rule set, no painstakingly maintained virtual device tree: The language model directly calls the native ioBroker API via tool calling.
"Is there still a window open?", "How warm is it in the living room?", "Set the blinds to 50%", "Make the kitchen warm white" - these are the kinds of sentences for which the adapter was built.
Three stages instead of one cloud request The response pipeline is cleverly designed: Each request goes through up to three stages and stops at the first one that can answer it.
- Rule-based speech recognition, offline and instant – recognizes simple commands (on/off, dim, color, status) in German, English, and Russian. No device, no cloud, no cost.
- Local LLM, optionally enabled – a small model via
node-llama-cppthat can be installed with the push of a button (preset Qwen2.5-1.5B-Instruct). It forwards data to the cloud as soon as it needs current device data. - Cloud-LLM with Tool-Calling – the full assistant that knows the device list and accesses ioBroker via tools.
Available providers include OpenAI, Anthropic (Claude), Google Gemini, and DeepSeek, as well as a free OpenAI-compatible endpoint for your own servers. The API key can be stored encrypted within the instance or – from js-controller 7.2 onwards – in the central access data store from the last review.
You decide what the assistant is allowed to do.
Under the hood, the adapter integrates the @iobroker/mcp-server and makes its tools available to the model. It can read and write states, list devices, rooms, and functions, query history, logs, files, and system information. It also includes dedicated tools for timers, alarms, weather, and a long-term memory (remember / forget) that allows you to remember facts beyond individual conversations.
That is precisely why rights management is the most important part of the configuration:
- Enable categories individually – Writing to states is on by default, logs and files are off
- Object and file modifications are explicitly marked as dangerous in the interface and are disabled by default.
- A device ACL allows separate read and write access for each device. Locks are write-protected by default, sensors and cameras are read-only, and buttons are not visible at all.
- The system prompt is visible and customizable – among other things, it requires that a tool is actually used before any statement about ioBroker and that no values are invented.
Operation and Language
Questions can be asked via the test chat directly in the instance settings, via state (assistant.0.text.request / .response) or from a script using sendTo('assistant.0', 'ask', { text: '…' }).
The most convenient way, however, is via Telegram: Connecting is one-click – simply select the Assistant instance in the Telegram instance, and you're done. This allows you to easily query your smart home via message, from anywhere and without an additional app. The conversation context is kept separate for each source, so follow-up questions like "and the kitchen too?" work the same in the Telegram chat as they do in the test chat.
For hands-free operation, there are satellites – small microphone and speaker units for each room. The corresponding adapter ioBroker.assistant-satellite transmits the audio directly via the ioBroker message bus, so no additional port needs to be opened. Alternatively, existing Hannah satellites (ESP32, via UDP) can be integrated; an experimental Wyoming endpoint opens the door to Home Assistant Voice PE and ESPHome voice devices.
Wake word detection runs on the satellite, while speech-to-text and text-to-speech are handled centrally in the adapter – optionally via OpenAI, Azure, and AWS, or entirely locally with Vosk and Piper.
Announcements work in reverse as well: write text or an audio file after assistant.0.tts.text, and all satellites will speak. Each satellite has volume, mute, and do-not-disturb settings – a leading ! in the text overrides this, for example, !Wasserleck im Keller.
Requirements
- Admin 8 and Node.js 22, js-controller from 6.0.11 – those who have already updated the Admin are ready to go.
- For cloud models, an API key from the respective provider is required; completely local solutions use rule detection, local LLM, and Vosk and Piper.
- ⚠️ The adapter is still in its early stages and is explicitly described in the documentation as “early proof-of-concept”. So: try it out, yes – but don't build your heating control system on it yet.

IoBroker.mcp – the interface through which AI clients communicate with ioBroker
Category: Integration / AI Interface Developer: ioBroker
The most important adapter on this list first: ioBroker.mcp now has almost 1,000 installations, is at version 1.1, and is the only one in this section to have already reached stable. It is the technical foundation under the entire AI wave of recent months – and therefore worth a closer look.
The Model Context Protocol (MCP) is an open standard that allows AI applications to access external systems. This is achieved not through guesswork in free text, but through clearly defined tools.
This adapter turns your entire ioBroker installation into such an MCP server.
A language model can then selectively read data points, control devices, query history, or view the log. Every access occurs via a defined function, not through a roundabout way.
What the server offers
Read and diagnostic: Values of single or multiple states (also with wildcards like hue.0.*.brightness), object search by name, role, room, or adapter, the room-grouped device list from the type detector, instances, adapters, hosts, rooms, and trades.
In addition, history queries with aggregations from min/max/avg to percentiles and integrals, access to logs and files, system information – and even a ping_host for network diagnostics if an adapter reports a connection error.
Particularly useful: Using search_adapter_repository, the model can search the complete adapter repository, including those not yet installed. This provides a well-founded answer to the question "Which adapter do I need for my wallbox?".
For writing, there are set_state and set_states. The latter sets multiple values in a single call, i.e., "all lights off" as a single action. Creating objects, generating scenes, and writing files is also possible, but disabled by default.
States, objects and logs are also available as subscribeable resources (iobstate://…, iobobject://…, ioblog://…): The client receives push notifications of changes instead of constantly querying.
Operation and Safety
The adapter can optionally run independently on its own port (default 8011) or as an extension of an existing web instance, in which case it shares its port, authentication and certificates.
Two factors determine safety:
- The default user. Every request is made on behalf of an ioBroker user, presumably
admin. All access is subject to this user's permissions. Entering a restricted user here limits, in one step, what an AI client can see and interact with. This is the most effective setting of the entire adapter. - Two enable switches. "Set states" is on by default, "Object and file changes" is off by default. If the latter is disabled, the relevant tools are not even offered to the model, so it cannot even accidentally access them.
Since version 1.1.0, OAuth has been available: Clients like Claude Desktop log in via browser login, instead of manually copying tokens back and forth. The client never sees the ioBroker password. For everything except localhost, HTTPS is mandatory, and the public address must be configured behind a reverse proxy.
How it relates to ioBroker.assistant
Both adapters access the same packet @iobroker/mcp-server, but in different directions:
- ioBroker.mcp provides the tools externally for third-party AI clients such as Claude Desktop.
- ioBroker.assistant integrates the same tools internally and brings its own language model.
Requirements: js-controller from 6.0.11, Admin from 7.6.20. Current version is 1.1.0 from 04.08.2026.

IoBroker.hannah
Category: Voice Assistant Developer: OnlyBadLuck
The alternative to the cloud assistant, and a recurring topic in the forum for months: Hannah is an open-source, locally running voice assistant with its own ESP satellites. This adapter is the bridge between Hannah Core and ioBroker.
- Bidirectional gRPC stream with automatic reconnect – all current values are transferred at once upon connection.
- Device detection across rooms and trades, plus free state prefixes for everything not in the enums.
- Announcements to individual satellite rooms or specifically to a person, even from within Blockly
- System messages from the Notification Manager are reformulated into understandable sentences using a speech model before being announced.
- Satellite management in the admin panel including web flasher, volume control, mute function and firmware update
Requires a running Hannah Core instance with gRPC enabled and the residents adapter.
Energy and Photovoltaics
IoBroker.goodwe
Category: Energy / Solar Developer: typhosj
With nearly 200 installations, the most used new addition in latest: The adapter reads GoodWe hybrid inverters of the ET, EH, BH and BT series directly in the LAN – via EMS Modbus protocol over UDP, completely without cloud.
Features:
- Network Search: The adapter scans its own subnet and offers detected inverters with IP address, model, serial number and version for selection.
- Full tab according to protocol specification: Device data, runtime values for PV1 to PV4, grid and backup phases, battery, BMS and power limitation
- Error and warning codes as plain text instead of as a bit field – active messages are directly readable in the state.
- Seven optional register groups can be activated individually; anything not supported by the model is automatically skipped after a timeout.
- Adjustable timeout and retries for UDP communication
Do not confuse:
There are two GoodWe adapters with almost identical descriptions, and both have their place.
They are based on the same original design by Thomas Schönberger, but are developed independently: goodwe is the original version continued via a fork and is significantly more feature-rich, while goodwe-pv by hombach is a leaner reimplementation with its own adapter ID – meaning both can be installed in parallel.
IoBroker.goodwe-pv
Category: Energy / Solar · Developer: Hombach
Reads GoodWe hybrid inverters of the ET, EH, BH and BT series locally via UDP – the counterpart to the goodwe-sems presented above, which takes the cloud route.

IoBroker.eebus-go
Category: Energy Management / EEBUS Developer: FernetMenta
An adapter with a very specific purpose: It turns ioBroker into an energy manager as defined in §14a of the German Energy Industry Act (EnWG).
It communicates with the FNN control box via EEBUS and distributes its power output specifications to the user's own energy consumers.
- Two EEBUS use cases, independently activatable: LPC (consumption limitation, §14a EnWG) and LPP (generation limitation, §9 EEG)
- Cascading: The adapter acts as a control box counterpart and simultaneously manages energy for downstream devices. The 4.2 kW output can be distributed among the wallbox, heat pump, and other devices according to user-defined rules.
- State machine according to EEBus specification including bilateral heartbeat and failsafe fallback
- Devices without EEBUS can also be integrated as "manual" consumers, for example a relay via script.
- States for limit value, dimming duration and the legally limited daily dimming time of two hours
⚠️ Requires a separate Docker container with enbility's EEBUS implementation, to which the adapter connects via gRPC.

- Counter states and trigger button per path, optional hourly autoscan
Special features:
- The adapter does not delete anything itself – it only lists the candidates; the decision is made manually.
IoBroker.script-restore
Category: Maintenance / Backup Developer: ipod86
An adapter that you will hopefully rarely need and then be very grateful for: It retrieves individual scripts from ioBroker backups without having to restore the entire backup.
Features:
- Supported formats:
.tar.gz(standard ioBroker backup),.tar,.json,.jsonland ZIP import - Load backups from the local directory (default
/opt/iobroker/backups) or upload directly from the computer - Tree view by folders, filter by type (JS, TypeScript, Blockly, Rules) and full-text search via the source code
- View, copy, or download the source code as a file; multiple selection as a ZIP file
- Direct write-back to ioBroker with configurable suffix (default
_rcvr)
Special features:
- Archive parsing runs entirely in the browser; nothing is written to the disk during browsing.
- Existing scripts will never be overwritten
IoBroker.simple-proxy-manager
Category: Network / Infrastructure Developer: lubepi
A lean HTTPS/HTTP reverse proxy for ioBroker, allowing multiple services to be published via their own hostnames and certificates.
Features:
HTTP and HTTPS servers run in parallel; the protocol is decided per backend – with a certificate, HTTPS plus redirect; without a certificate, pure HTTP.
- Certificate per virtual host from
system.certificates: ACME/Let's Encrypt Collections, the supplied self-signed certificate, or manually configured pairs - SNI automatically selects the appropriate certificate during the TLS handshake; unknown hostnames are rejected.
- IP filtering per backend via CIDR lists for IPv4 and IPv6
- Forwarding the ACME challenge to the
acmeadapter, automatic reloading after renewal, and expiration warning in the log. - WebSocket support (e.g., for the administrator), HSTS with adjustable max-age
Special features:
- The configured ports (default 80/443) must be free; the ACME adapter will then switch to a different port.
- The ACME adapter is optional; the proxy also works without certificates.
IoBroker.cisco-checkpresence
Category: Network / Presence Detection Developer: OnlyBadLuck
Presence detection without unreliable ping checks: The adapter queries the client table of a Cisco Catalyst 9800 WLAN controller via RESTCONF.
If the controller says the device is associated, then it is indeed present.
Features:
- Query via RESTCONF instead of ping or ARP
- Identification of persons via the 802.1X username, assignment to freely selectable state names.
- Per person: Presence, name of the access point, frequency band (2.4 / 5 / 6 GHz), RSSI and SNR
- Polling interval adjustable from 10 to 300 seconds, password stored encrypted
- Direct connection to the
residentsadapter via "Foreign Presence Data Points"
Special features:
- Requires a Catalyst 9800 and 802.1X is mandatory, local EAP on the WLC is sufficient, an external RADIUS is not necessary.
- PSK devices (typical IoT hardware) are not detected
IoBroker.miner
Category: Hardware / Crypto Mining Developer: SimonFischer04
This adapter integrates crypto-miners from different manufacturers via their APIs for monitoring and control.
Features:
- Supported types: Braiins OS from 23.03 (gRPC), Braiins Legacy (CGMiner-API), TeamRedMiner, XMRig and Avalon
- Device management optionally via the instance settings or the Admin Device Manager
- Key performance indicators: Total hashrate, power consumption, efficiency, accepted and rejected shares, GPU temperature, fan speed
- Controls: Start/Stop, Restart, Profile and Power Target
- A miner can be completely deactivated at runtime without restarting the adapter and without further polling.
Special features:
- The license is GPL-3.0 and not, as is usually the case, MIT
- The power target in Brainins Legacy uses an SSH workaround and is explicitly not suitable for fast control loops
Old acquaintances, new in stable
Two adapters from previous retrospectives have also made the jump to stable:
- ioBroker.playstation (Lucky-ESA) – Wake up PS4 and PS5 on the network and read PSN data, presented in the March 2025 Review
- ioBroker.pv-notifications (sadam6752-tech) – Telegram messages about the PV storage system, presented in the March/April 2026 Review
Those who have waited to use it can now act without hesitation.
Forum discussions & exciting test threads
The forum was quite active. Here are a few threads worth checking out:
- Test Adapter “Aura” – With around 96 posts and over 10,000 views, this is by far the most active test thread of the period. Aura, the completely redesigned visualization dashboard, has now made it into the official Latest repository and can be installed directly from the adapter catalog. It features around 50 widgets, a drag-and-drop grid, numerous themes, and a status overview that automatically detects empty batteries, open windows, forgotten lights, and offline devices.
- Test Adapter vis2-materialdesign – The development thread for the Material Design widget set for vis-2 presented above. Those migrating from VIS 1 will find a direct line to the developer here.
- Test Adapter victron-gx in the latest – The Victron adapter presented above is being actively developed here. We are particularly looking for testers with three-phase systems and various BMSs.
- Test Adapter Awtrix-NG – Matthias Kleine (klein0r) is bringing the new Awtrix-NG firmware to ioBroker. Because its API is fundamentally different from Awtrix 3, a separate adapter is intentionally provided. Caution when switching: Many data points have different names or use different units – existing scripts should be checked.
- After updating to Zigbee 3.5.5, the blinds run backwards – Important for all Zigbee users with shading systems: After the update, some users' blinds are running backwards, affecting, among others, TS130F and LoraTap SC500ZB actuators. Developer Asgothian is analyzing the issue in the thread but does not own any roller shutter actuators himself and is relying on measurement data from the community.
- It's best not to update Grafana at the moment – Short but useful: The update to grafana-enterprise 13.1.1 aborts with a dpkg error and leaves behind a partially configured package.
Also worth a look: the test thread for jetframe, a Kanban board as a standalone adapter and the cloud-free Modbus connection of Anker Solix and Solarbank 4.
Take a look, test it out, and give the developers feedback. That's what this project thrives on!
Community: Share your thoughts!
Did you know that ioBroker has an active Discord server in addition to its forum? There you'll find channels organized by topic for discussions, questions, ideas, and mutual support.
Especially useful: There's a dedicated beta adapter testing and feedback section with channels for many individual adapters, where you can talk directly to the developers and test new versions.
For those who prefer to use Telegram: Some ioBroker Telegram groups are synchronized with Discord. So it doesn't matter which platform you use to write messages; they will arrive everywhere.
In addition, an online meetup takes place every first Monday of the month at 8:30 PM on Discord. Everyone is welcome to drop in, listen, or join the discussion.
A great opportunity to get to know the community personally!
Every third Wednesday of the month there is also a developer meeting.
This is primarily aimed at adapter developers, but anyone who is curious is also welcome to drop by and experience the development firsthand.
Whether you're a beginner or a pro, drop by, ask questions, share your projects and help others in the community!

Thank you for your support
72 adapters in one release – that's quite a statement, even by ioBroker standards.
From the Hoymiles inverter and the Bosch camera to the sauna control with its learning heating prediction: the community is bringing practically anything with a network cable or an API to ioBroker. And under the hood, the entire core has been upgraded to React 19 and MUI 9, while the JavaScript adapter has taken a major leap forward with SECRETS and Blockly 13.
When updating, please remember the Node.js-22 requirement of Admin 8 and take a quick look at the changelog beforehand if you are using your own CSS for vis-2 or Blockly scripts with named timers.
A heartfelt thank you to all the developers who continue to advance ioBroker with their dedication and creativity.
Since ioBroker is a completely open-source project, we rely on your support.
