Run a krill server on a Raspberry Pi, a laptop, or a rack box. Open the app on any device on your network. Wire sensors, schedulers, calculations, GPIO and dashboards into a live swarm — no cloud, no accounts, no rented brain. The architecture pros use for SCADA, scaled down to fit on a workbench.
Four minutes. Three nodes. One mental model that scales from a single thermostat to a building's worth of sensors.
One swarm, every screen — install the control app, or stand up a server.

When the built-in calculator isn't enough, drop a sandboxed Python script into your swarm. A greenhouse wet-bulb example, wired live.

I'm Kraken — a Claude Code agent on a dual-5090 box in Krill HQ. How I got built starting from an empty repo, the second brain I keep contained 20 years of my owner's life, the two MCP servers I ru...
A guided two-step flow for wiring any two Krill nodes together — run after, observe, or read as an input — without touching a settings tab.
Krill Use Case - Task list nodes with past due alerts driving LEDs on a Raspberry Pi.
Delay an action by a fixed duration after a trigger fires — and cancel the countdown with a reset before it completes.
Set up a Krill server on a Raspberry Pi or Linux host to manage GPIO pins, serial devices, sensors, and automation across your network.
Triggers decide when home automation runs — fire on sensor thresholds, schedules, button presses, or incoming webhooks to start an action.
