BIM & Digital Twin Vision
Vision
Section titled “Vision”The next evolutionary step for this Homelab documentation is to transcend server racks and pure software, expanding into the physical realm. The goal is to build a complete Digital Twin (Home OS) that aggregates all information concerning the property into a single “Docs as Code” repository.
By treating the physical house as infrastructure, we achieve total tracking of materials, maintenance windows, and layout.
Roadmap Pillars
Section titled “Roadmap Pillars”The brainstorming ideas have been grouped into four cohesive strategic pillars. Select a pillar to view its detailed implementation plan:
The core of the digital twin. Defines how a relational, entity-based documentation architecture connects interactive 3D models (IFC/Speckle) with Markdown documentation. It introduces the sync workflow, IDs auditing, and multi-language support.
Detailed tracking of the physical house components: construction materials, appliances, and critical infrastructure systems (solar, HVAC). Includes preventative maintenance cycles and technical documentation.
The bridge between the server and the physical space. Covers the mapping of Unifi network physical drops, PoE, and the spatial positioning of IoT sensors integrated into Home Assistant.
The Business Intelligence layer. Calculates patrimonial value, returns on investment (ROI), and room-level budgets using standardized frontmatter metrics to assist with insurance and future renovations.
The intelligence layer. Integration of OpenClaw and OpenCode for secure, local-first AI agents that monitor system health, manage IoT automation via Home Assistant, and assist in maintaining the “Docs as Code” infrastructure.
