First run requires pressing the button on your Hue Bridge to pair. The bridge must be on the same local network.

Notes
- Bridge must be on the same local network as the machine running Hermes
- First run requires physically pressing the button on the Hue Bridge to authorize
- Colors only work on color-capable bulbs (not white-only models)
- Light and room names are case-sensitive — use
openhue get lightto check exact names - Works great with cron jobs for scheduled lighting (e.g. dim at bedtime, bright at wake)
