Tailscale integration

Zero-config VPN and networking platform API. Manage devices, users, ACLs, and network settings. Essential for secure remote access, network automation, and infrastructure management.

Say what should happen.
The workflow builds itself.

When this happens, do that in Tailscale.Built from the 11 Tailscale tools below, on the connection you add once.

Common Tailscale use cases

DNS review
device view
key rotation
device removal
key management

What you can do with Tailscale

Each of these is one operation on one endpoint, available both as a workflow step and as a tool an AI agent can call on its own. Nothing bundles several operations into one action, so what a run did stays readable afterwards.

Most endpoints run on the free plan. A few, mainly the ones that publish on your behalf, need a paid plan.

Device, 5 operations

authorize_deviceAuthorize devicePOSTAuthorizes or deauthorizes a device on the tailnet.
delete_deviceDelete deviceDELETERemoves a device from the tailnet.
get_deviceGet deviceGETRetrieves detailed information about a specific device.
list_devicesList devicesGETLists all devices connected to the tailnet.
set_device_routesSet device routesPOSTEnables or disables subnet routes advertised by a device.

Key, 3 operations

create_keyCreate keyPOSTCreates a new auth key for device registration.
delete_keyDelete keyDELETERevokes and deletes an auth key.
list_keysList keysGETLists all auth keys for device registration.

Acl, 2 operations

get_aclGet aclGETRetrieves the current ACL policy for the tailnet.
set_aclSet aclPOSTUpdates the ACL policy for the tailnet.

Dns, 1 operation

get_dnsGet dnsGETRetrieves DNS nameserver settings for the tailnet.

Tailscale API rate limits

60 requests per minute

Rate limits vary by endpoint

These are the limits Tailscale documents, not ones LiveContext measured. They can change and often depend on your plan, so check the Tailscale documentation for current values.

Use Tailscale from Claude Code, Cursor or Codex

Connect Tailscale in LiveContext, create an API key in Settings, then add the LiveContext MCP server to your client. Its Tailscale operations become tools the client can call, next to every other integration you connected.

Claude Code

claude mcp add --transport http livecontext https://livecontext.ai/mcp --header "X-API-Key: YOUR_API_KEY"

Codex (~/.codex/config.toml)

[mcp_servers.livecontext]
url = "https://livecontext.ai/mcp"

[mcp_servers.livecontext.http_headers]
"X-API-Key" = "YOUR_API_KEY"

Cursor, Claude Desktop and other JSON configs

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "livecontext": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://livecontext.ai/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "X-API-Key": "YOUR_API_KEY"
      }
    }
  }
}

Set up the MCP server step by step

How to connect Tailscale

Create your workspace
Sign up free. Nothing to install.
Connect Tailscale once
Add your Tailscale connection in Settings. Every tool from this integration reuses it, and secrets are encrypted at rest and visible only to you.
Describe the job in chat
The workflow builds itself in front of you and picks the endpoints it needs. Drag the steps yourself on the canvas whenever you would rather be explicit.
