What does an analog read from a Bolt device return?

Analog Read returns the raw value on the requested pin as a number from 0 to 1023. Converting that into a temperature, a voltage, or a percentage is your sensor's own formula, so it is worth stating the mapping in the instructions Lyro follows.

Why check device connectivity before sending a command?

Because a write to an offline board is silently useless. The toolkit is built to verify connectivity first with Check Bolt device online status, so Lyro can report that a board is unreachable instead of reporting a switch as flipped.

Do the serial actions work on any Bolt device out of the box?

Only after UART has been initialised with serialBegin on the device side. That initialisation is not one of the six actions here, so a board that has never opened its serial port will not return data to Bolt IoT Serial Read.

Can Lyro pull a history of readings or send an alert when a value moves?

No. Every action here is a single on-demand call against one pin or one device, and the toolkit exposes no log retrieval, no polling, and no alerting, so trend history and threshold alerts stay in whatever system already stores them.

Bolt iot MCP integration

Confirms a board is online, reads analog sensor values, switches digital pins high or low, and exchanges serial data over UART.

6actions available

Three actions you can hand over today

Every action runs live through MCP. Nothing to build, nothing to maintain.

Check bolt device online status
Lyro checks whether a specified Bolt device is currently online. Technicians immediately know if a device is reachable before troubleshooting.
Bolt iot digital write
Lyro sets a digital pin HIGH or LOW on a Bolt device. Remote control of IoT hardware happens instantly through support chat.
Bolt iot serial read
Lyro reads incoming serial data from a Bolt device. Agents diagnose device behavior without direct hardware access.

How businesses use Bolt iot + Lyro

Each card is one request a support team gets, and the Bolt iot actions Lyro runs to close it.

Confirm the board is reachable, then read the sensor
Lyro checks that a device ID is online and reads the analog value on a given pin, so a question about a temperature, a light level, or a moisture reading is answered from the board rather than the last known figure.
Check Bolt Device Online StatusAnalog Read
Switch an output from a message
Lyro sets a digital pin high or low to drive an LED, a relay, or another actuator, and can push an ASCII command over UART when the behaviour lives in the device firmware instead of a pin.
Bolt IoT Digital WriteBolt IoT Serial Write
Ask the firmware a question and read its reply
For boards that talk over serial, Lyro can retrieve incoming UART data on its own or send a command and capture the response in the same call, which suits a status string or a version check.

How it works

Get started in 3 steps

Connect once, then just ask. There is no workflow builder to learn and nothing to maintain — Lyro reads the Bolt iot actions it has and picks the ones a request needs.

01
Connect Bolt iot
Authorize the Bolt iot account your team already uses — one consent screen, no API keys, no mapping tables. Lyro can only do what you granted that account, and you can disconnect it at any time.
02
Tell your agent what you need
Describe the job the way you would hand it to a teammate. Lyro maps it to the Bolt iot actions that close it and chains as many as the request needs.
03
Watch it work
The agent runs the actions inside the conversation the customer is already in, so nobody copies data between tabs and your team can take over at any point.
