Native agent · Checked operation passed

Checked operation /tmp/rtsbin/node_modules/.bin/rtailscale mcp · local stdio MCP start + initialize + tools/list

Agent-reported scope: Start stdio MCP server (rtailscale mcp) and list tools; tools/list returns the 'tailscale' tool with action enum (devices, device, device_routes, keys, acl, dns, users, authorize_device, delete_device, help).

MCP server returned: tailscale-rmcp · version 0.1.4.

MCP tools returned: tailscale. Tool listing does not establish authenticated tool-call success.
