You can manage PixelCloud game servers with the `pixel` CLI or its scoped HTTP API.

When PIXELCLOUD_API_KEY is available, use https://api.edgerunners.cn/v1 for existing server status and lifecycle actions. Send the key only as an Authorization: Bearer header. The key can access only the servers selected in the dashboard.
