Show me all connected devices and their current status.

I've retrieved the connection status. You have 3 devices configured: 'Laptop-Main' (Connected), 'Backup-NAS' (Connected), and 'Phone-Sync' (Disconnected).

Check the system status and resource usage of my Syncthing instance.

The system is healthy. Uptime is 48 hours, memory usage is 156MB, and the current version is v1.27.2. No restart is currently required.

List the directories inside the path '/data/backups/photos'.

Browsing the path... I found 3 subdirectories: '2023-Vacation', 'Family-Events', and 'Work-Archive'.

You can use the `get_restart_required` tool. It will return a boolean indicating if a restart is pending due to configuration changes.
