$91.34 Claude Code /goal

[00:00:00]I just use cloud code goal to crack the Bluetooth mesh protocol for my lights.

[00:00:04]This is really cool. Let me show you.

[00:00:05]So, I've got these Amaran 150 lights and they're awesome. I've got like three of them in my office, but they are on Bluetooth and the app that I use on my desktop is flaky as hell and I have to reboot it all the time. It makes me so mad. So, in the past, I've tried to like reverse engineer what it is and the best I could do was just be able to control a light through the desktop app websocket, but that's not what I wanted. But Cloud Code came out with this new goal here.

[00:00:28]And essentially what I said is I have to leave. You can continue the cycle of testing trying to turn it on and off, but use my webcam. So I took my laptop, I turned and pointed it at the thing, and I said, "Go nuts." And it ran for about 4 hours trying all kinds of stuff.

[00:00:44]I gave it the desktop app and the Android app and allowed it to decompile it all. It figured out that there is a Pi Mesh SDK inside of the desktop application. But now I can run the Python script that I have with off. What it's going to do is it's going to go off and search for all of my lights with Bluetooth. Once it does connect to them, it's going to send the off command directly to it. Now, this is obviously a bit slow, but what I'll be able to do is to connect to it directly, keep that connection hot, and be able to issue commands to turn them off, turn them off, change the colors, etc. There we go. Turned right off. There we go. No app running. Simply just threw it. That would have taken me forever. So, this ran for $3 and cost $91.34, which is absolutely nuts. Most of that was it would try something. It would take a photo with the webcam. It would parse it to see if the light is actually on, and if it wasn't, it would try something else. So, that stuff is very, very expensive. So, if you enjoyed this, please follow us, check out Syntax.
