Problem

Ward #1495 removes the retired Tailnet, host-network, and SOCKS sidecar stack. AOS already owns standalone Tailnet MCP connectivity in aos-cli and docs/aos-standalone-connectivity.md, but the public Tailscale skill still describes ward agent --ts-sidecar as a second consumer and links Ward’s retiring sidecar documentation.

That text will become false after the Ward removal.

Contract

Update .agents/skills/tooling-tailscale/references/containerized-setup.md to remove ward agent --ts-sidecar as a consumer.
Remove the link to Ward’s docs/agent-ts-sidecar.md and any claim that the proxy network or hostname is a Ward contract.
Describe the current owners truthfully: infrastructure converges the standing userspace proxy, and standalone AOS consumes it for its bounded MCP connectivity path.
Keep the existing userspace SOCKS5, no-TUN, no-NET_ADMIN model.
Do not change AOS launch behavior, network names, proxy names, infrastructure, or Ward compatibility.
Do not update FEATURES; this is a documentation correction to an existing AOS capability.

Acceptance

The Tailscale skill contains no active Ward sidecar consumer or Ward sidecar documentation link.
AOS standalone connectivity docs and existing tests remain unchanged and accurate.
AOS skill and repository validation pass.
