Tools
Functions exposed to the LLM to take actions
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| tailnet_statusA | Report the state of the local tailnet: this node plus all peers with hostname, MagicDNS name, Tailscale IPv4/IPv6, OS, online flag, last seen, exit-node flags, and tags. Returns a structured error with the exact fix command when the tailscale binary is missing, the daemon is stopped, or the device needs login. |
| generate_ssh_configA | Generate ssh-config Host blocks for tailnet nodes (MagicDNS name preferred, Tailscale IP fallback). Dry-run by default: returns the generated config text only and writes nothing. With write=true it writes a dedicated file (~/.ssh/tailscale_dev_config) and returns instructions for adding an Include line to ~/.ssh/config (never applied automatically). Direct editing of ~/.ssh/config itself additionally requires target="user_ssh_config" and is idempotent between managed markers, never touching content outside them. |
| share_portA | Share a local port over the tailnet via Tailscale Serve (tailnet-only by default). WARNING: setting public=true switches to Funnel and exposes the port to the OPEN INTERNET — anyone with the URL can reach it. Only set public=true when internet exposure is explicitly intended. Returns the resulting URL(s). |
| share_statusA | Report the active Tailscale Serve/Funnel sessions on this node. |
| stop_shareA | Stop sharing. Without arguments clears the entire serve/funnel configuration; with httpsPort it turns off just that HTTPS serve endpoint (the port shown in share_status, typically 443 — not the local port that was proxied). |
| ping_allA | Ping tailnet peers concurrently (bounded to 5 at a time, one ping each with a timeout) and return a latency matrix: node, latency ms, path (direct vs DERP relay), or unreachable. Defaults to online peers only. |
