Use the SimpleAIBLE MCP server to scan, connect, and interact with Bluetooth devices. This skill provides guidance on the recommended flow (scan -> connect -> services -> read/notify) and handles platform-specific differences like UUIDs on macOS vs MAC addresses on Linux. Use when the user wants to interact with BLE hardware or debug Bluetooth connections.
SimpleAIBLE is an AI-friendly BLE toolkit powered by SimpleBLE. This skill provides instructions for using the SimpleAIBLE MCP server to interact with Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) devices directly from the host machine.
Always follow this sequence for BLE interactions:
scan_for (default 5s) to find nearby peripherals.connect using the address from the scan results.services to list available GATT services and characteristics.read for one-time values, write_request/write_command to send data, or notify/indicate + get_notifications + unsubscribe for streaming data.disconnect when finished to release the device.data_hex (always reliable) and data_utf8 (convenience field). If the data is not valid UTF-8, invalid bytes are skipped, so data_utf8 may be incomplete or empty. Use data_hex for protocol analysis and data_utf8 for human-readable strings.notify or indicate to subscribe, get_notifications to retrieve buffered data, and unsubscribe when done.bluetooth_enabled when an operation fails.
