Tailscale Integration

Overview

Tailscale is a mesh VPN/network provider. It connects your devices into a secure private network called a 'tailnet'. Unlike cloud providers (GCP, AWS, Azure), Tailscale doesn't provision infrastructure - it networks existing devices.

Instructions

DEVICE MANAGEMENT

• List all devices: cloud_exec('tailscale', 'device list')
• Get device details: cloud_exec('tailscale', 'device get <DEVICE_ID>')
• Authorize a device: cloud_exec('tailscale', 'device authorize <DEVICE_ID>')
• Delete a device: cloud_exec('tailscale', 'device delete <DEVICE_ID>')
• Set device tags: cloud_exec('tailscale', 'device tag <DEVICE_ID> tag:server')

SSH ACCESS (execute commands on devices)

• Run command on device: tailscale_ssh('hostname', 'command', 'user')
• Example - check uptime: tailscale_ssh('myserver', 'uptime', 'root')
• Example - docker status: tailscale_ssh('web-prod', 'docker ps', 'admin')
• Example - disk usage: tailscale_ssh('database-1', 'df -h', 'ubuntu')
• SETUP REQUIRED: User must add Aurora's SSH public key to target devices (Get key from Settings > Tailscale > SSH Setup)
• Targets must have SSH server running (Linux: sshd, macOS: Remote Login)
• If 'Permission denied' error: remind user to add Aurora's SSH key to the device

AUTH KEYS (for adding devices programmatically)

• List auth keys: cloud_exec('tailscale', 'key list')
• Create auth key: cloud_exec('tailscale', 'key create --ephemeral --reusable --tags tag:server')
• Delete auth key: cloud_exec('tailscale', 'key delete <KEY_ID>')

ACL (Access Control Lists)

• Get current ACL: cloud_exec('tailscale', 'acl get')
• Update ACL: cloud_exec('tailscale', 'acl set <ACL_JSON>')

DNS & NETWORK

• Get DNS settings: cloud_exec('tailscale', 'dns get')
• List subnet routes: cloud_exec('tailscale', 'routes list')

KEY CONCEPTS

• Tailnet: Your private Tailscale network
• Device: Any machine connected to your tailnet
