Description: MCP server with 52 tools for managing Tailscale tailnets from AI assistants
Category: Networking
License: MIT

Key Features

  • 52 tools covering devices, ACL policies, DNS, auth keys, users, webhooks, audit logs, and more
  • Works with Claude Code, Cursor, and other MCP-compatible AI assistants
  • Simple install via npx @yawlabs/tailscale-mcp

Why it's useful for homelab users

Homelabbers running Tailscale for secure networking can manage their entire tailnet through natural language via AI assistants. Instead of switching to the Tailscale admin console, you can check device status, update ACL policies, manage DNS settings, rotate auth keys, and review audit logs — all from your AI coding assistant. Self-hosted and open-source.
