Install Tailscale and connect a device to a tailnet. Handles platform detection, installation, verification, and initial authentication.

What this skill does

  1. Detects the platform (OS, distro, WSL2, container).
  2. Checks for an existing Tailscale installation.
  3. Installs Tailscale using the appropriate package manager.
  4. Verifies the installation and daemon status.

Platform detection

Detect the environment before selecting an install method. Check WSL2 first to avoid installing the Linux package inside a WSL2 instance.
