Is there a way or a tweak to make Siri execute shell commands
Indeed I have a home automation system, I would like to integrate a voice control system and for that I need to be able to call shell commands like curl.
I have seen many Siri tweaks but none of them allowing to assign a voice command like : turn on the light To a specific shell command
Solution 1:
Ok I got it working with the awesome tweak Assistant+. You just need to set the voice command you wan't to say, and then you can type the shell command to execute.
It costs 1.99$ on cydia
Solution 2:
Here is a sample script for uses with Voice recognition. You can modify it to your liking.

"unlock door", "play music", "pause music", ¬
"unpause music", "stop music", "next track", ¬
"raise volume", "lower volume", ¬

"hang up", "quit app"} giving up after 2629743

But this script might be to much. So try more simple task first using SIRI on you iPhone.
Control your lights using Siri and a WeMo Switch
Solution 3:
Maybe a little bit late, but now with iOS12 you can execute SSH with Siri Shortcuts App. No jailbreak needed.
I already tested it and worked awesome.
