This is the command-line version of Kasa Smart Control by rewster.uk

If you want a graphical interface this is not the version you are looking for, search search for “Kasa Smart Control” in the store.

This allows you to create scripts to run on your computer to control your devices (ie nighttime, turn on lights and dim them, turn off devices at bedtime). This app does not work with cameras, only plugs, and bulbs.

TPLinkCmd is an App Alias (pointer to the real app location) so the path to the file is not required in your scripts, just use TPLinkCmd or TPLinkCmd.exe like the examples below. This will avoid breaking your scripts when file locations or code is changed.

The link in the Start Menu takes you to the help page, with a list of all commands available, and https://rewster.uk/kasa-smart-control-command-line/ offers instructions on usage too.
