netbird-server

netbird-server is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from Aidas-dev/k8s-agent-skills. It costs 67 tokens per session (2,344 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A deployment guide for a self-hosted NetBird control plane on Kubernetes, including its management, connection, relay, authentication, and dashboard services.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to configure the Helm-based NetBird server and dashboard with PostgreSQL, Dex authentication, routing, STUN, gRPC, HTTP, and related control-plane settings.
Why use it?
It explains how to run NetBird’s central coordination system yourself and distinguishes that setup from the separate client, operator, and Terraform tools. Kubernetes runs these services as managed containers.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

netbird-server 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 7d ago.

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.

netbird-server — Self-Hosted Control Plane

Scope: This skill documents the helmforge/netbird chart (repo.helmforge.dev, helmforge/netbird) deployment of the self-hosted control plane — the pattern used by the production talos-stack deployment. NetBird also ships an official self-hosted setup (docker-compose with optional Traefik); if you're following that path, the components are the same but the chart-specific values (database subchart, existingSecret keys, GRPCRoute wiring) don't apply. For the docker-compose variant see docs.netbird.io/selfhosted.

For the client agent see netbird-cli. For Terraform provider see netbird-terraform. For the K8s operator see netbird-operator (the operator consumes an EXISTING control plane — it does not deploy one).

What You're Deploying

The control plane is a single combined server (netbirdio/netbird-server) running management API, gRPC, signal, relay, metrics, health, and embedded STUN in one container, plus a separate dashboard (netbirdio/dashboard).

Component Image Role
server netbirdio/netbird-server management + signal + relay + STUN + embedded IdP (Dex)
dashboard netbirdio/dashboard web UI (embedded nginx)

Configured by a single config.yaml (replaces old management.json + relay.env). All services listen on HTTP inside the cluster; TLS terminates at your ingress/gateway — the proxy MUST support HTTP/2 / gRPC (h2c).

Ports to Expose

Port Proto Purpose
443 TCP dashboard, API, gRPC, signal, relay (via ingress/gateway)
3478 UDP STUN (NAT traversal — CANNOT be proxied by HTTP reverse proxies)

Install (helmforge/netbird chart)

helm repo add helmforge https://repo.helmforge.dev
helm upgrade --install netbird helmforge/netbird \
  --namespace netbird --create-namespace

Minimal production values:

server:
  publicUrl: https://netbird.example.com
  replicaCount: 1          # sqlite requires 1; postgres can scale
  auth:
    issuer: https://netbird.example.com/oauth2   # embedded IdP issuer
  config:
    existingSecret: netbird-config    # full config.yaml from secret
    existingSecretKey: config.yaml
  service:
    annotations:
      external-dns.alpha.kubernetes.io/hostname: netbird.example.com

dashboard:
  replicaCount: 1

database:
  mode: external            # auto | external | sqlite
  external:
    engine: postgres        # postgres | mysql
    host: netbird-db-rw.netbird.svc
    port: 5432
    name: netbird
    username: netbird
    existingSecret: netbird-db

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.
