Install Jentic One Beta
Jentic One is a self-hosted execution layer for AI agents. It lets your agent call the MixerBox FreecableTV, 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%2Ffreetv-app.com%2Ffreetv-app" | 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%2Ffreetv-app.com%2Ffreetv-app" | 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 MixerBox FreecableTV API.
Search the FreecableTV catalogue for free TV shows by keyword
Surface a list of free movies that match a viewer query
List free live TV channels available to stream
Return chat-formatted titles and links suitable for conversational UIs
Filter responses for mobile or desktop rendering using the mobile flag
GET STARTED
Patterns agents use MixerBox FreecableTV API for, with concrete tasks.
★ Free TV Recommendation Bot
Build a chat assistant that takes a viewer prompt like 'free crime dramas' and queries GetShowsForChatGPT to surface watchable titles with links. The endpoint returns chat-formatted entries the assistant can render directly without further enrichment. Integration takes minutes because the API is open.
Call GET /services with funcs=GetShowsForChatGPT and a query for crime dramas, return the top five titles with watchable links
Free Movie Finder
Surface a free-movie picker inside a chat flow by calling GetMoviesForChatGPT with a viewer prompt. Each result includes a title and a direct watch link, so the bot can answer in one turn. Useful inside cord-cutting assistants where licensing and authentication concerns prevent paid catalogue use.
Call GET /services with funcs=GetMoviesForChatGPT and a query for action movies and return three watchable links
Live Channel Guide
List currently watchable free live TV channels via GetChannelsForChatGPT for cord-cutting guides and dashboards. Channel entries include direct stream links, suitable for embedding in a TV-guide UI or returning as agent output.
Call GET /services with funcs=GetChannelsForChatGPT and return a list of free live channels with stream URLs
Agent Chat Plugin Replacement
FreecableTV originated as a ChatGPT plugin. Through Jentic, an agent reuses the same endpoints inside any framework, getting a chat-formatted free-TV recommendation in one call. No credentials are required, so the only cost is the search and load time.
Search Jentic for 'find free tv shows', load the schema for GetShowsForChatGPT, and execute with a user-supplied query

What agents get from Jentic-routed access to this vendor.
Setup
Wiring MixerBox FreecableTV by hand means calling the api.freetv-app.com services endpoint with the right funcs query value for shows, movies, or channels and parsing each shape yourself. Through Jentic you install once, import MixerBox FreecableTV from the API Directory, and your agent calls it, with no credential to configure since the API is unauthenticated.
Permission scoping
FreecableTV is read-only and unauthenticated, so you limit the agent to the operations it needs, such as fetching shows, movies, or channel listings. You choose which of these it may call, and nothing outside that set runs.
Credential isolation
FreecableTV needs no credential, so there is nothing to store; any keys for other APIs on the same agent are held 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 'find free tv shows' or 'find free movies', and Jentic returns the matching /services operation with the funcs query parameter described so the agent calls the right shape without reading the reference docs.

Specific to using MixerBox FreecableTV API through Jentic.
What authentication does the MixerBox FreecableTV API use?
FreecableTV is unauthenticated. Endpoints under https://api.freetv-app.com are public and return JSON to any caller. Jentic still routes calls through your Jentic One instance so the agent's network surface stays isolated.
Can I get a list of free live TV channels with the FreecableTV API?
Yes. Call GET /services with funcs=GetChannelsForChatGPT to retrieve a chat-formatted list of free live channels with stream URLs that can be returned directly to the user.
What are the rate limits for the FreecableTV API?
FreecableTV does not publish a fixed rate limit. Treat it as a courtesy-shared service: cache GetShowsForChatGPT and GetMoviesForChatGPT responses for at least a few minutes and back off on any 429 response.
How do I find free movies through Jentic?
Search Jentic for 'find free movies', load the GET /services schema with funcs=GetMoviesForChatGPT, and execute with a query string. The response is chat-ready and can be relayed straight to the user.
Does the FreecableTV API host or stream the videos directly?
No. The API returns links to free public sources rather than hosting the streams itself. Plan playback against the third-party URL, which may change without notice.
Is there a mobile-only mode for the FreecableTV responses?
The /services endpoint accepts a mobile=0 or mobile=1 flag that hints at the rendering target. Set mobile=0 for desktop-style responses and mobile=1 for mobile-friendly payloads when integrating into different surfaces.
Can I limit what my agent is allowed to do with the MixerBox FreecableTV API?
Yes. Because you run Jentic One yourself, your own rules decide which FreecableTV operations the agent may call, so you can allow only fetching shows via GetShowsForChatGPT, movies via GetMoviesForChatGPT, or live channels via GetChannelsForChatGPT. FreecableTV is read-only and unauthenticated, so there are no write actions or credentials to expose, and anything outside the operations you permit simply does not run. This lets you scope a recommendation agent to, say, channel listings alone while blocking the rest.
