See edit below first...

Nice! you may want to update Magisk since its probably out of date. Make sure the "recovery" option is selected and you can use the direct install method when it asks. Also, if you ever reboot, you wont have root, but its not lost. You just have to power off your device (hold power button for 10 seconds while its not plugged in) then after its off hold the he button while plugging in the charger and keep holding home until you get the boot screen. that should boot you into recovery (which in our case is just a booted system with magisk running) . Note, do not take an ota updated while rooted, it will look like it just kinda fails to update and everything will be fine, but there is something weird that happens that im still investigating.

This is definitely still a beta root so beware. Im not responsible for.issues.

I am working on a fix for ota's, I think I have a fix but have to wait to see how if it works

EDIT: Actually if all you did was "fastboot boot magiskrecovery" and didnt do "fastboot flash recovery magiskrecovery" then I would just leave it at that if I were you. It is much safer. Dont do the direct install to update3 magisk then either
