For Agents

Create and update client-facing projects and tasks in CoordinateHQ, apply playbook templates and register webhooks for project events.

Install Jentic One Beta

Connect the CoordinateHQ API to your agent

Jentic One is a self-hosted execution layer for AI agents. It lets your agent call the CoordinateHQ 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://raw.githubusercontent.com/jentic/jentic-one/main/tools/install.sh | sh

Step 2: Agent machine

# On the machine where your agent runs (keep this separate from the instance):
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jentic/jentic-one/main/tools/install.sh | 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.

View OpenAPI Document

Jentic publishes the only available OpenAPI specification for CoordinateHQ API, keeping it validated and agent-ready. CoordinateHQ is a client-facing project management platform built around shared projects between a vendor and their external stakeholders. The 25 endpoints span projects, tasks, comments, groups, stakeholders, goals, organizations and webhooks, with operations to apply playbook templates to a project, look up a project by external object ID, and register webhooks for downstream sync. Authentication is API key based and tags partition the surface into clean resource groups for tasks and project hierarchy.

Use Cases

Patterns agents use CoordinateHQ API for, with concrete tasks.

★ Client Onboarding Automation

When a new deal closes in the CRM, an automation can create a CoordinateHQ project with the customer organization attached, then apply a standard onboarding playbook to scaffold the task list. POST /projects creates the project, then POST /projects/{project_id}/apply_playbook seeds tasks and goals. The external_object_id field lets the CRM keep its own deal record linked to the CoordinateHQ project.

POST /projects with the customer name and external_object_id matching the CRM deal, then POST /projects/{project_id}/apply_playbook with the standard onboarding template ID.

Task Status Sync to External Systems

Engineering and operations teams can mirror CoordinateHQ task status into their internal systems by registering a webhook for task events. The webhook payload includes the project ID and task ID, and a follow-up GET /projects/{project_id}/task/{task_id} returns the full state including assignee, due date and comments.

Register a webhook on /webhooks for the task.updated event and on receipt call GET /projects/{project_id}/task/{task_id} to fetch the new status.

Goal-Driven Project Reporting

Customer success teams can pull every active project for a stakeholder organization, list each project's goals, and roll up completion percentages into a weekly report. The Goals tag exposes endpoints to read and update goal records attached to a project, supporting outcome-based reporting rather than raw task counts.

List projects for organization ID 'acme-corp', for each project fetch the goals, and compute the average goal completion percentage.

AI Agent Project Assistant

An AI agent embedded in a CSM workflow can take instructions like 'create a project for the new Acme account using the onboarding playbook' and execute them against CoordinateHQ via Jentic. The agent uses the external_object_id field to maintain idempotency between CRM events and CoordinateHQ projects.

Use Jentic to call POST /projects creating an Acme onboarding project with external_object_id 'crm-deal-9921', then apply the onboarding playbook to it.

Why Jentic?

Three things that make agents converge on Jentic-routed access.

Credential isolation

The CoordinateHQ API key is held in the Jentic credential vault. Agents call CoordinateHQ operations through Jentic and the apiKeyAuth header is set at execution time, so the secret never reaches agent reasoning context.

Intent-based discovery

Agents search Jentic with intents like 'create CoordinateHQ project from playbook' or 'register CoordinateHQ webhook' and Jentic returns the matching operation along with its input schema, including the external_object_id field for idempotent linking.

Time to first call

Direct integration: 2-3 days to wire up project creation, playbook application, webhook receivers and task sync. Through Jentic: under an hour to create the first project from a playbook.

FAQs

Specific to using CoordinateHQ API through Jentic.

Why is there no official OpenAPI spec for CoordinateHQ API?

CoordinateHQ does not publish an OpenAPI specification. Jentic generates and maintains this spec so that AI agents and developers can call CoordinateHQ API via structured tooling. It is validated against the live API and kept up to date. Get started at https://app.jentic.com/sign-up.

What authentication does the CoordinateHQ API use?

The API uses an API key, declared in the spec under the apiKeyAuth scheme. Through Jentic the API key sits in the credential vault and is attached to outbound requests at execution time, so the raw key never appears in agent context.

Can I create a project from a playbook template with the CoordinateHQ API?

Yes. POST /projects creates the project, then POST /projects/{project_id}/apply_playbook attaches the chosen template, which seeds tasks and goals defined by that playbook.

How do I link a CoordinateHQ project to my CRM deal?

Set the external_object_id on the project at creation time, then use GET /projects/external_object_id/{external_object_id} to look it up later. This keeps your CRM record and the CoordinateHQ project in sync without storing CoordinateHQ IDs separately.

What rate limits apply to the CoordinateHQ API?

The OpenAPI spec does not declare formal rate limits. Use webhook subscriptions on /webhooks for state change notifications instead of polling, and back off on HTTP 429 responses.

How do I update a task through Jentic with the CoordinateHQ API?

Run pip install jentic, search Jentic with 'update CoordinateHQ task', load the operation schema for POST /projects/{project_id}/task/{task_id} and execute with the new status and comment payload.
