Can I see which devices are currently offline?

Yes! Use the `list_network_devices` tool. The agent will return a list of all devices in the network, and you can identify those with a non-'online' status.

How do I check the signal strength for a specific wireless client?

Use the `list_network_clients` tool. Your agent will fetch the list of connected clients, which typically includes signal strength (RSSI), data usage, and the AP they are connected to.

Where do I find my Meraki Dashboard API Key?

Log in to your Meraki Dashboard, click on your profile name in the top right, and go to 'My Profile'. Scroll down to the 'API access' section to generate your key.
