The Tailscale daemon only refreshed TLS certs as a side effect of inbound
TLS handshakes or "tailscale cert" CLI calls. A node that doesn't see
inbound traffic during the renewal window silently rolls past expiry.
Add a once-per-hour background loop on LocalBackend that enumerates Serve
and Funnel HTTPS hostnames (filtered against the netmap's CertDomains so
we don't poke ACME for other nodes' service hostnames) and calls the
existing GetCertPEM path. The renewal decision (ARI window, then 2/3
expiry fallback) is unchanged; the loop just guarantees it runs.
For visibility during initial issuance or restart with a long-expired
cached cert, add a "tls-cert-pending" health Warnable that's set while
ACME is in flight and no usable cached cert exists. Async renewal of a
still-valid cert intentionally doesn't fire it.
Expose the structured health.State (with WarnableCode keys) via a new
/localapi/v0/health endpoint, registered from a new feature/health
package and conditionally pulled in via feature/condregister so it can
be linked out with ts_omit_health. tailscale cert polls that endpoint
while CertPairWithValidity blocks and prints the pending warning to
stderr, matching by WarnableCode rather than by rendered text.

This repository contains the majority of Tailscale's open source code.
Notably, it includes the tailscaled daemon and
the tailscale CLI tool. The tailscaled daemon runs on Linux, Windows,
macOS, and to varying degrees
on FreeBSD and OpenBSD. The Tailscale iOS and Android apps use this repo's
code, but this repo doesn't contain the mobile GUI code.
The macOS, iOS, and Windows clients
use the code in this repository but additionally include small GUI
wrappers. The GUI wrappers on non-open source platforms are themselves
not open source.
Building
We always require the latest Go release, currently Go 1.26. (While we build
releases with our Go fork, its use is not
required.)
go install tailscale.com/cmd/tailscale{,d}
If you're packaging Tailscale for distribution, use build_dist.sh
instead, to burn commit IDs and version info into the binaries:
If your distro has conventions that preclude the use of
build_dist.sh, please do the equivalent of what it does in your
distro's way, so that bug reports contain useful version information.
Bugs
Please file any issues about this code or the hosted service on
the issue tracker.
Contributing
PRs welcome! But please file bugs. Commit messages should reference
bugs.
