Welcome to the Jupyter community! 🎉
We do have an extensive API covering everything needed for this.
For example, starting a server is:
curl -H "Authorization: Bearer $JUPYTERHUB_API_TOKEN" -X POST https://hub.example.org/hub/api/users/$USER/servers/I don't think maintaining a CLI is in-scope at the moment. But there is this jupyterhub Python client generated from our OpenAPI spec, which you might use.
