Tips for better results

• Be specific: "Which stores have replication queues over 100?" is better than "How's replication?"
• Name stores: "What's happening at the Melbourne store?" works because Pulse AI knows your store names
• Ask for actions: "What should I do about the failing health checks?" gets actionable recommendations
• Ask follow-ups: Pulse AI remembers your conversation context, so "tell me more about Store 3" works after a fleet-wide question
