Install Jentic One Beta

Connect the Mapbox Static Images API to your agent

Jentic One is a self-hosted execution layer for AI agents. It lets your agent call the Mapbox Static Images 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%2Fmapbox%2Fmapbox" | 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%2Fmapbox%2Fmapbox" | 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.

Select any Mapbox or custom style by username and style id

Use Cases

Patterns agents use Mapbox Static Images API for, with concrete tasks.

Location Thumbnails in Listings

A real-estate or travel listing generates a small map thumbnail for each property by requesting a static image at the property's coordinates and a fixed size. The thumbnails render server-side, so the listing page loads without a heavy interactive map for every card.

Produce a 300 by 200 map thumbnail for each listing centered on its coordinates

Report and Email Map Images

A reporting or notification service embeds a map picture in a PDF or email by requesting an auto-fitted image that frames a set of overlays, such as a delivery route or a cluster of markers. The rendered image travels with the document, so recipients see the map without loading a live tile layer.

Render an auto-fitted map that frames a list of marker overlays and embed it in a weekly report

Key Endpoints

2 endpoints — the mapbox static images api renders a standalone map image from a chosen style, returning a ready-to-embed picture with no client-side rendering.

Why Jentic?

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

Setup

Wiring Mapbox static images by hand means creating an access token, assembling the style, center, zoom, and size into a long URL, and appending the token yourself. Through Jentic you install once, import Mapbox from the API Directory, store the token once, and your agent calls the render operation with structured inputs.

Permission scoping

The Mapbox Static Images endpoints only render images, so a rule can bound your agent to just those render operations. You choose which operations it may call, so it can produce map pictures and reach nothing else in your account.

Credential isolation

Your Mapbox access token is stored once, encrypted, by your own Jentic One instance and added as the access_token query parameter at execution time. It never enters the agent's prompt, logs, or context.

Intent-based discovery

Agents search Jentic by intent such as 'render a static map' or 'map image at coordinates', and Jentic returns the matching Mapbox render operation with its input schema so the agent calls the right endpoint without reading the reference docs.

FAQs

Specific to using Mapbox Static Images API through Jentic.

What authentication does the Mapbox Static Images API use?

The Mapbox Static Images API authenticates with an API key: you pass your Mapbox access token as the access_token query parameter on each request, per its OpenAPI spec. Through Jentic the token is stored once, encrypted, by your own Jentic One instance and added at call time, so it never enters the agent's prompt or logs.

Can I render a static map at a specific size and zoom?

Yes. Request a map by longitude, latitude, and zoom, then set the width and height in the path to control the output size. A second request form auto-fits the view to the overlays you supply instead of a fixed center.

Is there a Mapbox MCP server?

You don't need an MCP server to give your agent Mapbox static maps. Jentic connects the API directly from the API Directory: import Mapbox, store your access token once, and your agent requests rendered images. Discovery happens on demand, so no extra server's tool definitions sit in the agent's context.

Can I restrict what my agent is permitted to do with Mapbox?

Yes. Write a rule that permits only the static image render operations, so the agent can produce map pictures but reach nothing else in your Mapbox account, and every call it makes is logged. You choose the operations it may call, so nothing beyond image rendering is included unless you add it.

What are the rate limits for the Mapbox Static Images API?

The OpenAPI spec does not specify rate limits. Check the Mapbox documentation at https://www.mapbox.com for current limits and quota details.

How do I render a Mapbox static map through Jentic?

Import the Mapbox Static Images API from the Jentic directory, store your access token once, and have your agent request a map with an intent such as 'render a static map at coordinates'. Jentic returns the render operation with its input schema so the agent supplies the style, center, and size. To run it on your own infrastructure, install Jentic One from its GitHub repo.

For Agents

Render standalone Mapbox map images from a style, either centered on a longitude, latitude, and zoom or auto-fitted to overlays, at a requested width and height. Returns a ready-to-embed picture for thumbnails, previews, and snapshots.

Use for: Render a map image of downtown Chicago at zoom level 12, Create a static map centered on a set of coordinates, Generate a map thumbnail with a marker at a location, I need a map picture sized 600 by 400 pixels

Not supported: Does not geocode addresses, calculate routes, or serve interactive vector tiles. Use for rendering static map images only.

The Mapbox Static Images API renders a standalone map image from a chosen style, returning a ready-to-embed picture with no client-side rendering. It exposes two request forms: one centered on an explicit longitude, latitude, and zoom, and one that auto-fits the view to the overlays supplied, both sized to a requested width and height. Requests authenticate with a Mapbox access token passed as the access_token query parameter, and the response is a rendered image suited to thumbnails, previews, and shareable snapshots.
