# Taildrop File Retrieval

Download files from Tailscale's Taildrop inbox to your local Downloads folder.

Quick Usage

~/clawd/skills/taildrop/scripts/taildrop-get.sh

This will:

  • Check for files in the Taildrop inbox
  • Download them to `~/Downloads/`
  • Handle filename conflicts (skip duplicates by default)
  • Report what was downloaded
  • Options

    # Download to a custom directory
    ~/clawd/skills/taildrop/scripts/taildrop-get.sh /path/to/directory
    
    # Overwrite existing files
    ~/clawd/skills/taildrop/scripts/taildrop-get.sh --overwrite
    
    # Rename duplicates
    ~/clawd/skills/taildrop/scripts/taildrop-get.sh --rename

    Prerequisites

  • Tailscale must be installed and running
  • User must be set as Tailscale operator (run once): `sudo tailscale set --operator=$USER`
  • Otherwise, sudo is required for each download
  • Notes

  • Unlike macOS/Windows, Linux Tailscale doesn't auto-save Taildrop files
  • Files stay in the inbox until manually retrieved
  • The script can run in loop mode to auto-receive files as they arrive
