It's possible to create a script and run it with the api, but there's no way to run an arbitrary one-time script.

We can obviously create, run, and then delete a script, but that's cumbersome. It's probably also possible to ssh to the server and run a script directly, but that's more complicated.

When running a script, I expect the initial request to start the execution and return a response with an id (or token) that can be used to poll or query the script status on further requests (possibly to a different endpoint). The idea is to know when the script finishes running and also get the script output from stdout and stderr.
