+# Multi-Node Dashboard Screenshot
+
+This file is a placeholder for the multi-node dashboard screenshot.
+
+## How to Capture the Screenshot
+
+1. **Run the seed script** to populate the central database with sample nodes:
+   ```bash
+   npx tsx packages/core/src/__tests__/seed-sample-nodes.ts
+   ```
+
+2. **Start the dashboard**:
+   ```bash
+   pnpm build && node packages/cli/dist/bin.js dashboard
+   ```
+
+3. **Navigate to the Nodes view** in the dashboard
+
+4. **Take a screenshot** and save it to this file location
+
+## Expected View
+
+When seeded correctly, the Nodes dashboard should show:
+- **Total: 6 nodes** (1 local + 5 remote)
+- **Online: 3 nodes** (local + Staging Server + Build Machine)
+- **Offline: 2 nodes** (GPU Cluster + error status)
+- **Remote: 5 nodes**
+
+The mesh topology visualization should show:
+- Central local node
+- 5 remote nodes connected around it
