CS2 Server Manager

Automated multi-server management for Counter-Strike 2. Deploy multiple dedicated CS2 servers in minutes with competitive plugins, auto-updates, and tournament integration.

Designed to work hand-in-hand with:

• MatchZy Auto Tournament – web UI and API for automated CS2 tournaments.
• MatchZy Enhanced – enhanced MatchZy plugin for in-server automation.

What it does

• Multi-server deployment: Spin up 3–5 CS2 servers with a single command.
• Tournament-ready stack: Installs Metamod, CounterStrikeSharp, MatchZy (enhanced), and AutoUpdater.
• Safe updates: Handles game and plugin updates automatically while preserving your configs.
• Persistent overrides: Everything in overrides/ survives updates.
• Observability & control: Handy management script and tmux integration for logs and debugging.
