The full story
Several guides cover SSH access into a jailbroken Kindle, but this one gets outbound SSH working from the Kindle itself, over Tailscale, without installing the full OpenSSH client. The end result: open a terminal on the Kindle's e-ink screen, type sshc youruser@your-server, and get a real shell on any machine on your Tailscale network. That makes it possible to run Claude Code sessions from the Kindle.
