tailscale-policy-manager

A guide for managing Tailscale network policy files. Tailscale is a private network service, and these policies define which users, devices, and services may communicate.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to write or debug access rules, configure device and user permissions, manage Tailscale SSH rules, validate policies, and automate deployment through GitHub Actions.
Why use it?
It helps turn network-access requirements into checked rules and supports a Git-based process for reviewing and deploying policy changes.

Grade A, and why

tailscale-policy-manager scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured yesterday.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

What it actually says

{
  "name": "tailscale-policy-manager",
  "version": "1.0.0",
  "description": "Expert guide for managing Tailscale tailnet policy files (ACLs). Covers the HuJSON policy file format, all policy sections (acls, groups, tags, SSH rules, autoApprovers, tests), the Tailscale API for validating and applying policies, and GitOps automation via GitHub Actions so changes are automatically validated on PRs and deployed on merge. Use this skill whenever the user is working with Tailscale ACLs or policy files, wants to set up git-based policy management, needs to write or debug access rules, wants to automate policy deployment, or mentions tailnet, Tailscale ACL, policy.hujson, gitops-acl-action, or Tailscale network permissions. Also trigger for questions like \"how do I restrict which devices can talk to each other on Tailscale\" or \"how do I set up Tailscale SSH rules.\""

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
