after unlocking my bootloader i tried to flash magisk.zip in fastboot mode by typing fastboot flash boot magisk.zip
now im stuck in fastboot mode. Enter reason: boot failure
with oneplus devices you can always go back to stock with msm tool. is there anything like that for pixel devices? or did i just turn my new phone into a shiny new paper weight?

To root you flash the patched boot image (the one you patched in Magisk), not magisk.zip.

Try flashing the stock boot image to get back to normal and then flash the patched boot image in fastboot.

See this guide.
