Anova Oven & Precision Cooker Control

Control Anova WiFi devices including Precision Ovens (APO) and Precision Cookers (APC) via WebSocket API.

Prerequisites

  1. •

    Personal Access Token from Anova app

    • •Download Anova Oven app (iOS/Android)
    • •Go to: More → Developer → Personal Access Tokens
    • •Create token (starts with anova-)
    • •Store in ~/.config/anova/token
  2. •

    Python dependencies

    bash
    pip3 install websockets
  3. •

    Device Setup

    • •Anova device connected to WiFi
    • •Paired with your Anova account

Installation

bash
# Install Python dependency
pip3 install websockets

# Store your token
mkdir -p ~/.config/anova
echo "anova-YOUR_TOKEN_HERE" > ~/.config/anova/token
chmod 600 ~/.config/anova/token

Usage

List Devices

bash
python3 scripts/anova.py list

Basic Cooking

bash
# Simple cook at 350°F for 30 minutes
python3 scripts/anova.py cook --temp 350 --duration 30

# Cook at 175°C for 45 minutes
python3 scripts/anova.py cook --temp 175 --unit C --duration 45

Advanced Controls

Custom Elements:

bash
# Rear element only (low-temp slow cook)
python3 scripts/anova.py cook --temp 225 --elements rear --duration 180

# Bottom + rear (standard roasting)
python3 scripts/anova.py cook --temp 375 --elements bottom,rear --duration 45

# All elements (maximum heat)
python3 scripts/anova.py cook --temp 450 --elements top,bottom,rear --duration 20

Custom Fan Speed:

bash
# Low fan (gentle cooking)
python3 scripts/anova.py cook --temp 250 --fan-speed 25 --duration 120

# High fan (fast heat circulation)
python3 scripts/anova.py cook --temp 400 --fan-speed 100 --duration 30

Probe Cooking:

bash
# Cook to internal temperature (not time-based)
python3 scripts/anova.py cook --temp 350 --probe-temp 165

# Low-temp probe cook
python3 scripts/anova.py cook --temp 225 --elements rear --fan-speed 25 --probe-temp 135

Combined Advanced Settings:

bash
# Precision low-temp cook
python3 scripts/anova.py cook --temp 225 --elements rear --fan-speed 25 --duration 180

# High-heat sear
python3 scripts/anova.py cook --temp 500 --elements top,bottom,rear --fan-speed 100 --duration 5

Stop Cooking

bash
python3 scripts/anova.py stop

Monitor (Real-time Stream)

bash
python3 scripts/anova.py monitor --monitor-duration 60

Natural Language Examples

Agent prompts:

  • •"Preheat the oven to 375°F for roasting"
  • •"Start sous vide at 135°F for 2 hours"
  • •"What's the current oven temperature?"
  • •"Stop cooking"
  • •"Steam vegetables at 212°F for 15 minutes"

Features

Anova Precision Oven (APO)

  • •Sous vide cooking (wet bulb mode)
  • •Roasting (dry bulb mode)
  • •Steam cooking with humidity control
  • •Temperature control (C/F)
  • •Real-time status monitoring
  • •Telemetry export

Anova Precision Cooker (APC)

  • •Sous vide cooking
  • •Temperature control
  • •Timer management
  • •Real-time status

API Reference

WebSocket Endpoint: Via Anova cloud service Authentication: Personal Access Token (Bearer token) Protocol: WebSocket with JSON messages

Configuration

Token file: ~/.config/anova/token Default device: First device found (or specify with --device-id)

Troubleshooting

"No token found":

bash
echo "anova-YOUR_TOKEN" > ~/.config/anova/token

"No devices found":

  • •Check device is online in Anova app
  • •Verify WiFi connection
  • •Generate new token

"Connection failed":

  • •Check internet connection
  • •Verify token is valid
  • •Ensure device is paired with account

Safety Notes

  • •Always verify temperature before starting long cooks
  • •Use timers to prevent overcooking
  • •Monitor remotely but check in-person for safety
  • •Default timeout: 4 hours max
