Can Termux API already having access to notifications of other apps, be able to figure out the categories of notifications the notifications belong to?

The Termux API, specifically the termux-notification-list command, can access notifications from other apps and provides a JSON list of notification objects. However, the available information does not explicitly state that the API can directly determine the categories (such as "social," "promo," "message," etc.) of these notifications. The API primarily exposes metadata like notification text, title, time, and app source, but not the predefined Android notification categories or channels by default.
If you need to categorize notifications, you would likely need to:
Parse the notification content (title, text, app name) and infer the category based on keywords or app-specific logic.
Use Android's notification channels (if available in the metadata) to map to categories, but this depends on how the app itself categorizes its notifications.
In summary: Termux API can access notifications, but it does not natively provide their categories. You would need to implement custom logic to infer categories from the available metadata. Would you like help brainstorming how to implement such logic?
