## What it is
SiriProxy is a Ruby-based tampering proxy server for Apple's Siri assistant that intercepts Siri traffic and lets developers write custom plugins (as Ruby gems) to add new voice commands, such as controlling a thermostat. It was designed for pre-iOS 7 devices and is no longer functional with modern iOS versions.

## Use cases
- add custom voice commands to Siri
- control home devices like a thermostat with Siri
- intercept and modify Siri network traffic
- write Ruby plugins that respond to spoken Siri requests
- experiment with the Siri protocol

## When to choose
- you run an old pre-iOS 7 Apple device and want to extend Siri with custom commands
- you want to learn how the Siri protocol works by inspecting its traffic
- you want a Ruby plugin system for voice-driven home automation on legacy devices

## When to avoid
- you use iOS 7 or newer, since protocol changes broke SiriProxy
- you need a maintained, production-ready voice assistant proxy
- you are not comfortable with networking setup, since installation is complex and super-pre-alpha

## Facets
- artifact type: service
- maturity: abandoned
- function: proxy, middleware, plugin-system, speech-recognition
- domain: developer-tools, networking
