Current Behavior

Given this policy:

{
  "tagOwners": {
      "tag:bar": ["alice@"],
      "tag:foo": ["alice@"]
  },
  "acls": [
    {
      "action": "accept",
      "src": ["*"],
      "dst": ["*:*"]
    }
  ]
}

and a node tagged with tag:foo:

$ headscale nodes list -t
ID | Hostname | Name | MachineKey | NodeKey | User           | IP addresses                  | Ephemeral | Last seen           | Expiration          | Connected | Expired | ForcedTags | InvalidTags | ValidTags
1  | n2       | n2   | [M0Gk+]    | [Y0bYt] | tagged-devices | 100.64.0.1, fd7a:115c:a1e0::1 | false     | 2025-12-21 08:40:16 | 0001-01-01 00:00:00 | online    | no      | tag:foo    |             |

it knows about its assigned tag:

$ tailscale status --json | jq .Self.Tags
[
  "tag:foo"
]

The tag can be modified on Headscale:

$ headscale nodes tag -i 1 -t "tag:bar"
Node updated

… and its visible in the nodes list:

$ headscale nodes list -t
ID | Hostname | Name | MachineKey | NodeKey | User           | IP addresses                  | Ephemeral | Last seen           | Expiration          | Connected | Expired | ForcedTags | InvalidTags | ValidTags
1  | n2       | n2   | [M0Gk+]    | [Y0bYt] | tagged-devices | 100.64.0.1, fd7a:115c:a1e0::1 | false     | 2025-12-21 08:40:16 | 0001-01-01 00:00:00 | online    | no      | tag:bar    |             |

But its not visible by the node itself:

tailscale status --json | jq .Self.Tags
[
  "tag:foo"
]

Its only visible when tailscaled is restarted on the node.

Expected Behavior

The node should have its list of tags updated as soon as its modified on Headscale.

Steps To Reproduce

See above

Environment

- OS: Debian 13
- Headscale version: 0.28.0-beta1
- Tailscale version: 1.92.3

Runtime environment

  • Headscale is behind a (reverse) proxy
  • Headscale runs in a container

Debug information

none
