The CLI is used to perform configuration and some checks:

* check
  - Permissions: The API needs to be able to access some files and create new ones
  - Panels: This checks one or all panels if every nameserver is aware of all domains
  - Domain: TODO
* panels
  - List: List all panels which are configured on this server
  - Create: Adds a new panel to the configuration
  - Update: Changes one or more parameters of the panel
  - Delete: Deletes the given panel
  - ApiPing: Calls the /ping endpoint of the given server
  - some additional API call might be added
* nameservers
  - similar to panels, but for the nameservers
* domains
  - similar usage to panels/domains, manage all slave zones
* apikeys
  - manage the keys to access this nameserver via API
