Largest acylindrical actions of free-by-cyclic groups

We show that every finitely generated free-by-cyclic group $G$ admits a largest acylindrical action on a hyperbolic space $X$ obtained by coning off maximal product subgroups of $G$. We characterise Morse geodesics of $G$ as those that project to quasigeodesics in $X$, thus showing that all finitely generated free-by-cyclic groups are Morse local-to-global. We also characterise the stable and strongly quasiconvex subgroups of $G$. Finally, we compute the Morse boundary for {finitely generated free}-by-cyclic groups with unipotent and polynomially growing monodromy.
