The full story

The household kept forgetting the slow reverse osmosis tap and letting it overflow. The maker added an ESP32 linked to Home Assistant with a relay and water valve, so the valve only stays open for a set time.

The code was written with Claude. It works from a dashboard and physical buttons, and the maker says it works great.

What this is. Real projects where people used Claude to build, fix, port, revive or take apart something, from jailbroken Kindles to rebuilt DOS games, plus the times it went badly wrong. Every build links to where it was shared, and every source is listed here.

How far to trust it. We summarise what people reported and say what each build rests on: a full write-up with code, a short post, or a passing comment. We haven't tested them ourselves. Photos are shown from the original sources with credit. Only modify hardware you own, and back up first.
