Excerpt

headscale-deploy

Overview

Headscale is an open-source, self-hosted implementation of the Tailscale control server. It allows you to run your own coordination plane for WireGuard-based mesh networking, giving you full control over your tailnet without relying on Tailscale's SaaS infrastructure. The Tailscale client connects to Headscale transparently — no client modifications needed.

Use this skill to deploy Headscale from scratch, configure server settings, manage DERP relay infrastructure, and diagnose deployment issues.
