Neato shut down its cloud and app. OpenNeato puts an ESP32 on the robot’s debug port and serves a local web page with manual drive, schedules, cleaning history and the LiDAR map.

ai
The README doesn't mention AI. The repo has had an AGENTS.md for AI agents since day one, and 1 of 204 commits carries a Claude co-author line.
caveats
Early beta. D8, D9 and D10 aren't supported because their serial port is locked. Needs wiring to the robot's debug port. Separate from Vacuula, which covers the same robots in software.
