This is an MCP (Multi-Client Protocol) server that provides an extensive tool surface for AI agents to interact with the Tailscale v2 API. It allows agents to compose complex network administration workflows and perform tasks like device management, ACL configuration, and DNS settings programmatically.

Features
01Broad administrative API coverage for Tailscale v2, enabling agents to manage all aspects of the tailnet beyond local node scope.
02Typed tool surface with Zod-validated input schemas and structured responses, eliminating the need for fragile string parsing.
03Safe-by-default write operations, with tools declaring `readOnlyHint`, `destructiveHint`, or `idempotentHint` to guide client behavior and mutation gating.
04Cross-client compatibility through the MCP protocol, allowing use in various AI clients like Claude Code, Cursor, and VS Code.
05Extensive unit and opt-in live-tailnet integration tests, ensuring tool reliability and API shape-drift detection.

↳Drafting and validating ACL policy changes, including previewing access differences, before applying them.
↳Automating security key rotation for authentication keys older than a specified duration.
↳Programmatically creating scoped OAuth clients for CI/CD pipelines to manage specific Tailscale resources.
