Shell access

Using the built-in shell to bootstrap the machine.

Mars includes a built-in shell connection for accessing a machine with the mars-user role. Use it for initial machine setup, including user configuration, Tailscale, and SSH access.

Connecting to the shell takes a few seconds after starting the machine. The shell icon will indicate the state of the shell.

Running processes through the built-in shell is not recommended. The shell closes 20 minutes after disconnection. Use Tailscale and SSH for durable access.
