Agents are excellent for reverse engineering. I was also recently working on a BLE reverse engineering exercise and followed a similar path. I ran into lots of headaches with BLE on my Mac and tabled it.

Author or others who know, did you perform this on Linux? I imagine it lacks the tooling challenges I had with BLE on MacOS.

It was on a MBP, didn’t run into any issues

What sort of tools did it use? I suppose the path mine took may have been a dead end. The Tuya app (I was also using decompiled APK) downloads the BLE definitions on-demand and weren't embedded in the app. It wanted me to capture traffic on a device with the app. I punted but plan to resume with an emulator setup or real device connected with adb.
