Full Analysis
- [EXTERNAL_DOWNLOADS]: The skill fetches the official Tailscale installation script and repository configuration from tailscale.com and pkgs.tailscale.com.
- [REMOTE_CODE_EXECUTION]: The skill executes the official Tailscale installation script by piping the output of curl directly to the shell (curl -fsSL https://tailscale.com/install.sh | sh).
- [PRIVILEGE_ESCALATION]: Installation and service management commands such as apt-get, dnf, systemctl, and tailscale up are executed with sudo or administrator privileges to allow system-level configuration.
- [PERSISTENCE]: The skill provides instructions to add an alias to the user's shell profile (~/.zshrc) to ensure the Tailscale CLI remains accessible across sessions for Mac App Store installations.
- [COMMAND_EXECUTION]: The skill uses various system commands for environment discovery, including uname, grep, and reading /etc/os-release, to determine the appropriate installation method for the current distro.
