ToyBridge — Universal BLE Toy Control

Control any BLE toy through OpenClaw, as long as you have the ToyBridge server running.

This skill is for devices that are not supported by Buttplug.io/Intiface — devices with proprietary or unknown protocols that you've reverse-engineered yourself using the ToyBridge toolkit.

If your device IS supported by Buttplug.io, use the intiface-control skill instead — it's easier.

Prerequisites

You've reverse-engineered your device's BLE protocol using ToyBridge
You've configured 4-bridge/ble_worker.py for your device
The ToyBridge server is running: uv run 4-bridge/server.py

See the full setup guide for step-by-step instructions.

Commands the agent will use

Vibrate at intensity

curl -s -X POST http://host.docker.internal:8888/vibrate \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"intensity": 60}'

intensity: 0–100 (0 = stop)

Stop immediately

curl -s -X POST http://host.docker.internal:8888/stop

Check status

curl -s http://host.docker.internal:8888/status

If OpenClaw runs natively (not in Docker), replace host.docker.internal with localhost.

Intensity guide

Range	Feel
1–20	Gentle
30–50	Medium
60–80	Strong
90–100	Maximum

Preset patterns

Pattern	What it does
`pulse`	Bursts of 80%, 5 times
`wave`	Ramp up 20→100%, then back down, x2
`tease`	30% → 70% → 100%, escalating, then stop

To run a pattern:

curl -s -X POST http://host.docker.internal:8888/vibrate \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"pattern": "wave"}'

Agent rules

Always stop (intensity 0) after a timed session unless user says to keep going
Do not use the notify tool — use bash with curl
Replace host.docker.internal with localhost if OpenClaw is not in Docker

Troubleshooting

Problem	Fix
`connection refused`	Make sure `uv run 4-bridge/server.py` is running
Device doesn't respond	Check your device config in `ble_worker.py`
Wrong intensity	Values are clamped to 0–100
