Tailscale Integration

Connect your AI to your home network via Tailscale VPN

What Tailscale does for your AI

Tailscale creates a private mesh VPN between your devices. When configured on your OpenClaw instance, your AI joins your tailnet and can communicate securely with any device on your private network — including your home PC. The most powerful use case is browser automation: run Chrome on your PC with the remote debugging port exposed on your Tailscale IP, then give your AI the CDP host address. Your agent can control a real browser on your real computer with your real residential IP — making it indistinguishable from a human user to any bot detection system. Setup requires generating an ephemeral auth key from your Tailscale admin console (takes 2 minutes). The instance will join your tailnet on every boot. Auth keys expire after up to 90 days — set a calendar reminder to rotate before expiry.
