Chase down Tailscale devices that haven't checked in
Every Monday, WebRun opens the Tailscale admin console, reviews devices that haven't connected in over 30 days or have a key expiring soon, posts a chase list to Slack naming the device and owner, and mirrors a short version to Telegram.

How do I find Tailscale devices that haven't checked in or have an expiring key?
WebRun reviews your Tailscale network every Monday for devices that haven't connected in over 30 days or have a key expiring within 14 days, posts an owner-tagged chase list to Slack, and mirrors it to Telegram. It never removes a device or rotates a key itself, only flags what needs attention.
- Stale devices and expiring keys get an owner and a chase list every week
- Nothing sits unnoticed between quarterly access reviews
- The list lands in two channels so it's hard to miss

Questions, answered
Does WebRun remove the stale device or rotate the key itself?
No. WebRun only flags stale devices and expiring keys. Removing a device or rotating a key is always a manual step taken in the Tailscale admin console.
How stale does a device have to be to get flagged?
Anything that hasn't connected in over 30 days, or has an authentication key expiring within 14 days.
Why post to both Slack and Telegram?
So the chase list reaches wherever your team actually looks first, without anyone having to check two places on their own.
