TailUserspace is a macOS menu bar app and CLI that runs Tailscale's userspace networking mode without root or system VPN profiles. It offers bidirectional port forwarding (serve and proxy), SOCKS5/HTTP proxy support, and coexists with the official Tailscale client. The project fills a niche for unprivileged tailnet access on macOS.

Target audience: macOS developers and DevOps seeking unprivileged tailnet access
