SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

It replaces scattered remote access tools with one browser-based dashboard for discovering Mercury peers, viewing their status, and operating them over Tailscale.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Live desktop streaming: View periodic screenshots from a peer in real time.
  • Remote control: Send mouse, keyboard, and shell actions to macOS or Linux peers.
  • File and terminal access: Browse directories, read files, and run commands against trusted mesh nodes.
  • Use case: A support operator can inspect a remote Mac, capture the screen, type a fix, and verify the result without leaving the browser.

Quick Start

Ask the assistant to use the Mercury web dashboard to connect to a peer, show its screen, and run a safe command through the Tailscale mesh.

FAQPage Schema
How do I control remote desktops over Tailscale from a browser?

You can control remote desktops over Tailscale from a browser by using a web dashboard that streams periodic screenshots and forwards mouse, keyboard, and shell actions to trusted Mercury peers.

Can I browse files and run terminal commands on remote macOS or Linux peers through a web dashboard?

Yes, you can browse directories, read files, and execute shell commands against macOS or Linux peers directly through a browser-based dashboard connected via the Tailscale mesh network.

Does remote desktop streaming over Tailscale require WebSocket connections?

Remote desktop streaming over Tailscale requires aiohttp WebSocket and REST handling to transmit periodic screenshots, accept remote inputs, and manage Mercury authentication for secure peer operations.

What's the best way to inspect and operate remote Mac computers without installing dedicated remote access software?

The best way to inspect remote Mac computers without dedicated software is using a browser dashboard that discovers Mercury peers, captures live screenshots, and sends input commands over Tailscale.

How do I set up Mercury authentication for remote peer control in a trusted mesh environment?

To set up Mercury authentication for remote peer control, the web dashboard handles authentication natively alongside WebSocket connections, ensuring secure access to trusted peers within your Tailscale environment.

Are there limitations when sending remote keyboard and mouse inputs through browser-based desktop streaming?

Browser-based desktop streaming captures periodic screenshots rather than continuous video, meaning remote keyboard and mouse inputs are executed against static frame updates rather than real-time interactive video feeds.
