Automate billing audits with Claude Code
`get_recent_data_sessions` pulls the latest connection logs for your entire fleet straight into your terminal. You can pipe this output into a cron job that checks `get_billing_cycle_usage` to ensure your hardware isn't chewing through your monthly data cap. When a node gets stuck in a boot loop and spams the network, your headless agent catches it. It runs `get_daily_usage_stats`, identifies the spike, and alerts you before the carrier hits you with massive overage fees. You handle the entire audit without leaving the command line.
Track hardware deployments via CLI
`list_iot_devices` dumps your active hardware inventory directly into standard output via this MCP Server. If you need to verify a deployment in the field, your agent grabs the exact device IDs and checks their status instantly. You can also track physical assets by calling `get_device_locations`. The agent pulls the raw cell tower triangulation data and formats it for your deployment logs. If a unit goes missing, you hit `get_device_details` to pull its last known state and diagnostic info.
Suspend rogue nodes instantly
`pause_sim_data` cuts the cellular connection to any node that starts misbehaving. You write a bash script that monitors data spikes, and your agent executes the suspension command using the cellular link ID pulled from `list_sim_cards`. Once the field technicians resolve the hardware fault, you bring the unit back online. The agent fires `unpause_sim_data` to restore the link. You can also run `list_available_data_plans` to verify the node is sitting on the correct tier before it starts transmitting again.
