Describe the bug
Trying to execute a python script to scan for available Bluetooth BLE devices using the bleak library:
$ python3.12 -m pip install bleak
$ python3.12 <<EOF
import asyncio
from bleak import BleakScanner
async def main():
devices = await BleakScanner.discover()
for d in devices:
print(d)
asyncio.run(main())
EOF
[1] 53087 abort python3.12 <<<''
The same command works fine in macOS' Terminal.app
According to bleak documentation, this is a known issue of the terminal program:
https://bleak.readthedocs.io/en/latest/troubleshooting.html#bleak-crashes-with-sigabrt-on-macos
and the solution they suggest is to:
Ideally, the terminal application should be fixed by adding NSBluetoothAlwaysUsageDescription to the Info.plist file
it is also possible to manually add Warp to System Settings > Privacy & Security > Bluetooth, but with this cryptic error (just "abort") it makes a bad user experience IMHO.
To reproduce
Run the python code above after installing bleak.

Does this block you from using Warp daily?
No
Is this an issue only in Warp?
Yes, I confirmed that this only happens in Warp, not other terminals.
