Tailscale GitHub Action v4.0.0
The Tailscale GitHub Action v4.0.0 adds ping parameter support for connectivity verification, automatic logout of ephemeral nodes at the end of CI runs, and fixes macOS DNS resolution issues. The action is now implemented as a JavaScript action requiring Node.js 24, and binary caching is enabled by default.
- New: The Tailscale GitHub Action supports a
pingparameter to verify connectivity to tailnet devices. - New: The Tailscale GitHub Action logs out the Tailscale ephemeral node at the end of the CI run, removing it from the tailnet immediately.
- New: The Tailscale GitHub Action is implemented as a JavaScript action and requires runners that are capable of installing Node.js 24.
- Changed: Caching of Tailscale binaries is enabled by default.
- Fixed: DNS resolvers are properly set on macOS. Previously, attempting to reach devices using their full domain of the form
my-node.my-tailnet.ts.netwould fail due to incorrect DNS settings.

Tailscale v1.104.1 — Performance and Features Release
Tailscale v1.104.1 delivers significant performance improvements including reduced WireGuard memory usage, client-side netmap caching for offline resilience, and enhanced features like device pinning, improved Taildrop support, and platform-specific fixes across all supported devices.
Declarative node sharing
Tailnet admins can now use policy to securely share resources between trusted tailnets in a declarative way, enabling controlled cross-tailnet access.
Linux client reconnection stability fix
Fixed an issue where the Linux client would stop tailscaled when falling behind on status updates. The client now reconnects instead of exiting, and only terminates if it cannot reconnect within one minute.
