Indoor Plant Light Stress Detection

Problem

Indoor plant issues are often light-related rather than disease-related: weak light can cause elongated internodes, thin or pale leaves, sparse growth, and leaning toward light; too much direct light can cause scorched edges, brown necrotic spots, curling, and bleaching. Visual checks are easy to misread in homes, offices, and smart planter setups.

How it works

The skill accepts local image or video paths and network URLs, supporting jpg, png, mp4, avi, and mov files up to 10MB. It analyzes whole-plant structure and leaf details for low-light stress or strong-light damage, and can combine optional lux sensor readings to classify the condition as insufficient, normal, or excessive. It returns a structured report with detected signs, risk notes, care suggestions, and a report link; historical reports should be fetched through the cloud API rather than local memory.

Boundaries

Use the output as a care reference, not as equipment selection, grow-light model advice, or professional agronomic diagnosis. Capture both whole-plant and close-up leaf frames under stable lighting, and avoid overexposure or darkness. The skill should not recommend specific device parameters; it should give actionable directions such as moving the plant toward a window, adding shade, or adjusting supplemental light duration.
