separate

Build direct Bluetooth Low Energy workflows with Core Bluetooth. Use when implementing BLE central or peripheral GATT communication, scanning or connecting with CBCentralManager, discovering services and characteristics, reading/writing/subscribing with CBPeripheral, publishing local services with CBPeripheralManager, handling Bluetooth authorization, background BLE modes, state restoration, write flow control, or CBUUID-based workflows. For privacy-preserving accessory setup/picker flows, use accessorysetupkit first and return here for post-setup GATT communication.
