Tailscale is the recommended way to access b1e55ed remotely without exposing ports publicly.
  • API default: :5050
  • Dashboard default: :5051

​
Install

On your VPS: 
curl -fsSL https://tailscale.com/install.sh | sh

​
Authenticate

sudo tailscale up
Follow the login URL and approve the device.

​
Get your node IP

tailscale ip -4
Example output: 
100.64.12.34

​
Bind b1e55ed to Tailscale

​
Option A (recommended): bind explicitly to the Tailscale IP

Set api.host and dashboard.host: 
# config/user.yaml
api:
  host: "100.64.12.34"
  port: 5050

dashboard:
  host: "100.64.12.34"
  port: 5051

​
Option B: bind to 0.0.0.0 and rely on ACLs/firewall

api:
  host: "0.0.0.0"

dashboard:
  host: "0.0.0.0"
Only use 0.0.0.0 if you understand your firewall and you’re confident ports are not exposed on the public interface.

​
Firewall guidance

  • Only expose ports 5050/5051 on the Tailscale interface
  • Block access on the public interface
  • Prefer Tailscale ACLs for team access
