## About

Guide for installing, configuring, and managing Tailscale, headscale, and the Tailscale product family. Covers core mesh VPN (exit nodes, subnet routers, access controls, SSH, MagicDNS), Docker and Kubernetes integration, CI/CD pipelines, ephemeral nodes, infrastructure access, site-to-site networking, app connectors, Aperture (AI/LLM gateway for governance, cost control, usage visibility), device posture, MDM, SCIM provisioning, SSH and kubectl session recording, tsrecorder, Taildrop, Tailscale Serve, Funnel, and building Go applications that embed Tailscale via the tsnet library. Use when someone asks about Tailscale networking, mesh VPN, VPN replacement, containers, Kubernetes operator, CI/CD runners, device management, session recording, audit logging, LLM API access, AI cost control, file sharing, exposing internal services, or writing a Go program that joins a tailnet as its own device — even when they describe the scenario without naming the product.

## Install

1. **Add it in ChatGPT** Open Plugins in the ChatGPT sidebar (web or desktop), search for “Tailscale” and select +. You'll be asked to sign in to any connected service on first use. Then type @ in a chat to call it.

## Disconnect or uninstall

1. **In ChatGPT** Disconnect an account in Settings → Apps or Plugins. To remove the plugin itself, open Tailscale in the Plugin Directory and select Uninstall plugin. Uninstalling can disconnect every account connected through it, and plugins your workspace installs may not offer the option.

2. **In Codex** Run /plugins in the Codex CLI, select the plugin and uninstall it, or press Space to turn it off.
