Install Jentic One Beta
Jentic One is a self-hosted execution layer for AI agents. It lets your agent call the Sonarr, or any other public or private API you need. You set the rules, the agent never sees your credentials, and every call is logged.
Two steps, two machines. Install the instance in a safe environment, then register your agent from wherever it runs.
Step 1: Jentic One Host machine
# On the machine that will host your Jentic One instance:
curl -fsSL "https://jentic.com/install.sh?src=apis&api=%2Fapis%2FSonarr%2Fsonarr" | shStep 2: Agent machine
# On the machine where your agent runs (keep this separate from the instance):
curl -fsSL "https://jentic.com/install.sh?src=apis&api=%2Fapis%2FSonarr%2Fsonarr" | sh
jentic register # connects your agent to your Jentic One instanceJentic One is in public beta. The setup above keeps your agent separate from the instance, which is what you want before using real credentials: an agent running as the same OS user as Jentic One can read its stored keys directly. Just evaluating? A single local install is fine to start. See the secure deployment guide for the tiers.
What an agent can do with Sonarr API.
Access Sonarr resources via REST API
Manage developer tools data programmatically
Integrate Sonarr into automated workflows
Query and filter Sonarr records by parameters
GET STARTED
Monitor Sonarr operational status and events
Patterns agents use Sonarr API for, with concrete tasks.
★ Developer Tools Operations
The API provides 234 endpoints for developer tools operations.
Execute a primary operation against the Sonarr
Data Retrieval and Monitoring
Query Sonarr resources on a schedule to track changes, generate alerts, or feed downstream dashboards. Agents poll relevant endpoints, compare against previous state, and trigger actions when thresholds are crossed.
Poll the primary Sonarr endpoint, compare response to last known state, and alert if changed
AI Agent Integration via Jentic
AI agents discover and call Sonarr endpoints through Jentic without managing credentials directly. An agent searches for the required operation by intent, receives the matching endpoint schema, and executes the call with Jentic-managed authentication. This eliminates the need to read API documentation or handle apiKey tokens manually.
Search Jentic for 'sonarr', load the operation schema, and execute with Jentic-managed credentials
What agents get from Jentic-routed access to this vendor.
Setup
Wiring Sonarr by hand means managing its API key and pointing at your self-hosted instance's protocol and host yourself. Through Jentic you install once, import Sonarr from the API Directory, store the key once, and your agent calls it.
Permission scoping
Sonarr uses a single API key across its operations, so limit the agent to the operations it needs, such as reading your series library, and leave out state-changing calls like adding or deleting series unless you add them. You choose the allowed set, so only the operations you pick can run.
Credential isolation
Your Sonarr API key is stored once, encrypted, by your own Jentic One instance and injected at execution time. It never enters the agent's prompt, logs, or context.
Intent-based discovery
Agents search Jentic by intent such as 'list series in Sonarr' or 'add a series to Sonarr', and Jentic returns the matching Sonarr operation with its input schema so the agent calls the right endpoint without browsing the reference docs.

Specific to using Sonarr API through Jentic.
What authentication does the Sonarr use?
The Sonarr uses an API key passed in the `X-Api-Key` header. Through Jentic, these credentials are stored encrypted in your Jentic One instance and injected at execution time, so raw secrets never enter the agent context.
What are the rate limits for the Sonarr?
Rate limits are not specified in the OpenAPI spec. Check the vendor documentation for current limits. Through Jentic, rate limiting is handled automatically with retry logic built into the execution layer.
How do I use sonarr through Jentic?
Install the Jentic SDK with pip install jentic, authenticate through Jentic One, the self-hosted execution layer, then search for 'use sonarr'. Jentic returns the matching Sonarr operation with its input schema. Load the schema and execute the call - credentials are injected automatically.
How many endpoints does the Sonarr have?
The Sonarr exposes 234 endpoints covering autotagging, blocklist, calendar operations.
Does the Sonarr support pagination?
Pagination support depends on the specific endpoint. Check the endpoint parameters for page, limit, or offset fields. Through Jentic, the operation schema exposes all available parameters so agents can paginate automatically.
Can I limit what my agent is allowed to do with the Sonarr API?
Yes. Because Sonarr uses a single API key across all of its operations, Jentic One, which you self-host, lets you decide which operations that key is allowed to run. You can restrict the agent to read-only calls such as listing your series library or checking the calendar, and leave out state-changing operations like adding or deleting series unless you choose to include them. Only the operations you select can be called, so your own rules govern what the agent can do.
For Agents
Programmatically access Sonarr resources. Covers 234 operations with apiKey authentication.
Use for: I need to integrate with Sonarr, Find available developer tools operations, Get the current status of Sonarr resources, List all records from Sonarr
Not supported: Does not handle payments, communications, or crm - use for developer tools only.
Sonarr API docs - The v3 API docs apply to both v3 and v4 versions of Sonarr. Some functionality may only be available in v4 of the Sonarr application. The API exposes 234 endpoints secured with apiKey authentication.
