Install Jentic One Beta

Connect the Bhagavad Gita API to your agent

Jentic One is a self-hosted execution layer for AI agents. It lets your agent call the Bhagavad Gita API, 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%2Fbhagavadgita.io%2Fbhagavadgita" | sh

Step 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%2Fbhagavadgita.io%2Fbhagavadgita" | sh
jentic register       # connects your agent to your Jentic One instance

Jentic 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.

Use Cases

Patterns agents use Bhagavad Gita API for, with concrete tasks.

★ Daily Verse Delivery Service

Send a verse from the Bhagavad Gita to subscribers each morning via email or push notification. The agent picks a chapter and verse number, calls /api/v1/chapters/{chapter_number}/verses/{verse_number}, and pipes the Sanskrit text and English translation into the message. The complete corpus is 700 verses, so a daily cycle covers roughly two years of unique content.

Fetch /api/v1/chapters/2/verses/47 and send the Sanskrit and English translation to the subscribed email list.

Bhagavad Gita Study App

Power a mobile or web study application that lets users read the Gita chapter by chapter, with verse-level navigation. The /api/v1/chapters endpoint returns the index, /api/v1/chapters/{chapter_number} returns chapter metadata, and /api/v1/chapters/{chapter_number}/verses returns the full chapter text. Translations and commentaries embedded in the verse object support comparative reading.

Render chapter 4 by calling /api/v1/chapters/4 for the summary and /api/v1/chapters/4/verses for the 42 verses.

AI Spiritual Study Assistant

Build a conversational AI that answers questions about the Bhagavad Gita with citations to the original verses. Through Jentic, the agent issues natural-language searches like 'find verse on duty' or 'get chapter 2 verses', loads the schema, and pulls the cited verse with chapter and verse number for the response. The OAuth token stays in your Jentic One instance so the agent never handles raw credentials.

Search Jentic for 'fetch a Bhagavad Gita verse', execute /api/v1/chapters/2/verses/47, and quote it back with citation.

Key Endpoints

6 endpoints — the bhagavad gita api exposes the complete text of the bhagavad gita organised by its 18 chapters and 700 verses, with each verse available in sanskrit, transliteration, and translations or commentaries by recognised scholars.

Why Jentic?

What agents get from Jentic-routed access to this vendor.

Setup

Wiring the Bhagavad Gita API by hand means exchanging OAuth client credentials at /auth/oauth/token, refreshing the access token, and building chapter and verse paths yourself. Through Jentic you install once, import the Bhagavad Gita API from the API Directory, store the client credentials once, and your agent calls it.

Permission scoping

The Bhagavad Gita API puts the chapter number in the URL path (/chapters/{chapter_number}/verses/...), so a rule can pin your agent to one chapter and its verses. Every operation here is read-only text retrieval, so no write path is reachable regardless of the set you allow.

Credential isolation

Your Bhagavad Gita OAuth client credentials are stored once, encrypted, by your own Jentic One instance and injected at execution time. They never enter the agent's prompt, logs, or context.

Intent-based discovery

Agents search Jentic by intent such as 'fetch a Gita verse' or 'list the verses in a chapter', and Jentic returns the matching operation with its input schema so the agent calls the right endpoint without browsing the reference docs.

FAQs

Specific to using Bhagavad Gita API through Jentic.

What authentication does the Bhagavad Gita API use?

The API uses OAuth 2.0 client credentials. POST your client_id and client_secret to /auth/oauth/token to receive an access token, then send it as a Bearer token on every verse request. Through Jentic, both the client credentials and the resulting access token are stored encrypted in your Jentic One instance and never enter the agent's context.

Can I get a specific verse by chapter and verse number?

Yes. GET /api/v1/chapters/{chapter_number}/verses/{verse_number} returns a single verse, including the Sanskrit text, transliteration, and translations or commentaries provided by the API. For example, /api/v1/chapters/2/verses/47 returns the well-known karma yoga verse.

How many chapters and verses are in the Bhagavad Gita API?

The API covers all 18 chapters of the Bhagavad Gita and roughly 700 verses across them. GET /api/v1/chapters returns the chapter index; GET /api/v1/verses returns every verse in the corpus for bulk download.

How do I fetch a daily verse through Jentic?

Search Jentic for 'fetch a Bhagavad Gita verse', load /api/v1/chapters/{chapter_number}/verses/{verse_number}, and execute with the day's chapter and verse. With the SDK: pip install jentic, then SearchRequest, LoadRequest, and ExecutionRequest in an async flow.

Is the Bhagavad Gita API free?

The bhagavadgitaapi.in service is offered free for non-commercial use; client credentials are obtained from the bhagavadgita.io developer portal. Commercial usage tiers are not declared in the OpenAPI spec - contact the operators if your use case is commercial.

Can I limit what my agent is allowed to do with the Bhagavad Gita API?

Yes. Because you run Jentic One yourself, your own rules decide which operations and credentials the agent may use, so you can allow only the calls you want, such as fetching a single verse with GET /api/v1/chapters/{chapter_number}/verses/{verse_number} while blocking the bulk GET /api/v1/verses listing. Since the chapter number sits in the URL path, a rule can pin the agent to one chapter and its verses. Every operation on this API is read-only text retrieval, so no write path is reachable regardless of the set you allow.

For Agents

Read chapters and verses of the Bhagavad Gita in Sanskrit, transliteration, and multiple translations for study apps and verse delivery.

Use for: I need to fetch verse 47 from chapter 2 of the Bhagavad Gita, Get all 18 chapters of the Bhagavad Gita, List every verse in chapter 12, Retrieve the metadata for chapter 6 of the Gita

Not supported: Does not handle audio recitation, user accounts, or commentary submission - use for chapter and verse text retrieval only.

The Bhagavad Gita API exposes the complete text of the Bhagavad Gita organised by its 18 chapters and 700 verses, with each verse available in Sanskrit, transliteration, and translations or commentaries by recognised scholars. Agents can list all chapters, fetch a specific chapter's metadata, retrieve every verse in a chapter, or pull a single verse by chapter and verse number. Authentication uses an OAuth 2.0 client-credentials flow against the /auth/oauth/token endpoint to obtain a bearer token. The API is well suited to building reading apps, daily-verse delivery services, and AI study assistants.
