STYGION Panel Alpha, a0.4.0

A game server panel you install like one file, because it is one.

STYGION Panel is a self-hosted game server panel for hosting providers: one Go binary that runs game servers in Podman or Docker containers. Your Pterodactyl and Pelican eggs keep working, and an AI assistant can drive it over MCP. Seven days free, then €4.90 a month for every panel you run.

Read the install guide
A game server open in the panel: the live console mid-log, with the image, ports and limits beside it.

What you skip.

No PHP, no queue worker, no Redis, no separate daemon. The installer works out your distribution, installs Podman if it's missing, checks the download against the release manifest and writes a systemd unit. SQLite by default, Postgres if you'd rather.

Your eggs come with you.

Import Pterodactyl and Pelican eggs as they are, install scripts included, and export them back in the same format.

Stop paying, keep running.

The licence decides one thing: whether you can create a new server. Everything already running keeps running if you stop paying, or if our side goes dark. When we're unreachable, you get fourteen days before even that stops.

An assistant can run it.

The panel speaks MCP, so an AI assistant can start, stop and look after your servers with the same tools you have, under a key the owner hands out.

Drive it over MCP

What it does

  • Live console that shows the last lines instantly, then streams.
  • File manager with upload, archives and in-browser editing, plus SFTP with the panel login.
  • Cron schedules, databases, port allocations, subusers and an activity log.
The file manager in the panel: folders of a server, with upload and archive actions.

Questions people ask

Do I need a STYGION account?

Not for the free week. You link one when you subscribe.

Which systems does it run on?

64-bit Linux with systemd, on x86_64 or arm64: Debian, Ubuntu, Fedora, Rocky, Alma, Arch and openSUSE. Not Alpine, Windows or macOS.

What happens if I stop paying?

Running servers keep running. You can't create new ones until you subscribe again.

What if STYGION goes down?

Nothing, for fourteen days. After that only creating new servers stops.

What does my panel send you?

The licence check, the update check and the support tickets you send us. Your servers, files and database stay on your machine.

Can I move from Pterodactyl?

Your eggs, yes. Servers and their files you copy over yourself.

How finished is it?

It's in alpha (a0.4.0). The version on this page is the one the installer gives you.
