He needs an endorsement before he can solo the tailwheel... he cannot be
PIC until he has the endorsement, and as sole occupant he IS the PIC.

He will get the endorsement as a matter of course.

I thought it would have been given prior to solo, but I see that mine
is dated *after* my flight test! Evidently the instructor overlooked
it. So perhaps you should nudge the CFI.
