Android Bluetooth

Use bluetooth for all Bluetooth and BLE actions.

Tool Map

  • action=status
  • action=set_power
  • action=open_settings
  • action=paired_list
  • action=ble_scan
  • action=ble_connect
  • action=ble_disconnect

Default Automation Policy

  • Auto-attempt permission request first.
  • Keep open_settings_if_failed=true for permission fallback.
  • Keep wait_user_confirmation=true only for manual system steps.
  • Use allow_manual_success=true only when manual setup is acceptable for upstream task flow.

Connect Playbook

  1. bluetooth(action="status").
  2. If needed: bluetooth(action="set_power", enabled=true).
  3. Discover: bluetooth(action="ble_scan", seconds=5, max_results=20).
  4. Connect: bluetooth(action="ble_connect", address="...", timeout_sec=20, discover_services=true, open_settings_if_failed=true, wait_user_confirmation=true).

Disconnect Playbook

  • Single: bluetooth(action="ble_disconnect", address="...")
  • All: bluetooth(action="ble_disconnect", all=true)

Failure Recovery

  • Permission failures: grant in settings and continue same run.
  • Power-off failure: hand off to system Bluetooth settings, then continue.
  • Connect timeout: retry once, then return recoverable error with next step.
