Tailboot CLI
Create a Tailboot ISO with your Tailscale auth key and optional Wi-Fi credentials. Requires Node.js 24 or newer.
npx tailboot@latest <auth-key> tailboot.iso
npx tailboot@latest <auth-key> tailboot.iso --wifi-ssid "My network" --wifi-password "My password"Or install the command:
npm install --global tailboot
tailboot <auth-key> tailboot.isoEach package version downloads its matching, verified base ISO from the Tailboot releases. Your credentials are added locally; they are not sent to a server. The customized ISO contains those credentials in plain text, so keep it secure.
See tailboot.download for auth key settings and instructions for writing the ISO to a USB drive and connecting with Tailscale SSH.
