Grok Bot has a Tailscale integration—and now you can, too

Tailscale has made OAuth apps generally available, enabling AI agents such as Grok Bot to securely connect to private resources on a user’s tailnet through OAuth 2.0 without exposing internal infrastructure or sharing credentials. Unlike existing OAuth clients that create devices under a shared service identity, OAuth apps provision devices tied to the authorizing user, preserving normal tailnet policies, audit logs, and device quotas. Grok Bot can use this integration to reach private Model Context Protocol servers, while administrators can restrict its network access independently from the user’s other devices through custom device posture attributes on Premium and Enterprise plans or tag-based policies on other plans. Tailscale’s example policy permits engineers’ regular devices to access production databases while limiting their Grok Bot instances to designated MCP servers. Users can connect Grok Bot through its desktop application’s Tailscale plugin, and developers can use Tailscale’s OAuth Apps documentation and device provisioning guidance to build similar integrations.
