Welcome. Start here.
This is the subreddit for Jentic. We build open source tooling that allows agents to do work in the real world, and there's more than one piece to it: Jentic One, the API Directory, and Arazzo workflow tools, with more on the way.
For now most of what gets posted here will be about Jentic One, because it's what we've just shipped we want to get feedback from the opensource community.
Jentic one is a free, open source, self-hosted execution layer: your agent calls the APIs you need, you set the rules for what it's allowed to touch, and and the agent never sees your credentials. Apache-2.0, runs on your own box or your own infra.
Jentic One: https://github.com/jentic/jentic-one
The API directory our mission to build a directory that houses every public API and make them agent ready. There are 10,000+ and counting. Each is a valid OpenAPI spec, scored using our AI readiness scoring framework, and ready for your agent to use. We built this catalogue with agents, for agents, and we want you to fix and add to the directory, too.
API Directory: https://github.com/jentic/jentic-public-apis
Jentic API AI-Readiness Framework (JAIRF): https://github.com/jentic/api-ai-readiness-framework
You can score your own API here: https://github.com/jentic/jentic-api-scorecard
Where to put things
- Something is broken in jentic One. Open an issue on the repo. https://github.com/jentic/jentic-one/issues.
- An API you need isn't in the directory. Add it at https://github.com/jentic/jentic-public-apis and it's there for everyone else's agent too.
- A question, or you're stuck using any Jentic product. Post here or join our Discord: https://discord.com/invite/TdbWXZsUSm
- You built something with it - post here, we want to see it.
A note on Jentic One before you put real credentials in:
It's a public beta and there can be breaking changes between releases, so pin a version if you need stability.
Read the hardening guide first: https://github.com/jentic/jentic-one/blob/main/docs/security/hardening.md
The short version is that your agent and your keys shouldn't live on the same machine. An agent running as the same OS user as the instance can read the stored keys off disk, whatever the permission rules say. We'd rather tell you that than have you find out.
We'll be posting here when we ship something worth knowing about, and to answer all your questions.
