It communicates with Whirlpool's cloud API to list registered appliances and send control commands\u2014such as adjusting AC settings or monitoring appliance state\u2014without going through the official mobile app. The package uses aiohttp, websockets, and async-timeout to handle asynchronous network communication.\n\nThe library is designed for home automation integrations (notably used by Home Assistant's Whirlpool integration) and provides both a Python API and a command-line interface for account management and device control. It carries an explicit disclaimer that use is at the user's own risk and that developers assume no liability for appliance damage or malfunction caused by the library.","worth_installing":"Yes, if you own Whirlpool or Maytag 6th Sense appliances and need programmatic control or home automation integration. The package is actively maintained, has no known vulnerabilities, and uses a permissive MIT license. However, be aware that it is unofficial, carries inherent risk of appliance malfunction, and requires Python 3.14 or later\u2014a constraint that may limit compatibility with some environments."},"id":"whirlpool-sixth-sense","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/whirlpool-sixth-sense","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/whirlpool-sixth-sense.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/whirlpool-sixth-sense/"},"maintenance":{"status":"active"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2026-07-30","license_spdx":"MIT","license_treatment":"permissive","name":"whirlpool-sixth-sense","python_support":"capped_below_current","summary":"Unofficial API for Whirlpool's 6th Sense appliances"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":74699,"position":14801,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"1.4.0"}
