Install Jentic One Beta
Jentic One is a self-hosted execution layer for AI agents. It lets your agent call the Nutcache 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%2Fnutcache.com%2Fnutcache" | 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%2Fnutcache.com%2Fnutcache" | 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 Nutcache API.
List active projects in a Nutcache workspace
Create a new project in Nutcache
List logged timesheet entries across a workspace
Log a new time entry against a project
Sync external timesheet data into Nutcache for invoicing
GET STARTED
Pull Nutcache project data into external reporting dashboards
Patterns agents use Nutcache API for, with concrete tasks.
★ External Timer Sync
Agencies that prefer a desktop timer push completed sessions into Nutcache by calling POST /timesheets with the project ID and duration. This keeps Nutcache's billing and reporting accurate without forcing consultants to use the in-app timer. Integration is straightforward thanks to the small endpoint surface.
Call POST /timesheets with the project ID, user ID, and duration captured by an external timer
Project Reporting Dashboard
Operations leads pull Nutcache project lists into a BI dashboard via GET /projects to monitor active engagements alongside revenue and utilisation metrics. The endpoint returns enough metadata to filter by client, status, or owner without a full export.
Call GET /projects, filter the response by status, and pipe the results into a reporting warehouse
Agent-Driven Timesheet Logging
An AI assistant working alongside a consultant logs time entries to Nutcache as meetings end. Through Jentic the agent searches for 'log time entry', loads the POST /timesheets schema, and executes with the project and duration, eliminating the manual stopwatch step.
Search Jentic for 'log a Nutcache time entry', load the schema for POST /timesheets, and execute when a calendar event ends

What agents get from Jentic-routed access to this vendor.
Setup
Wiring Nutcache by hand means setting up its API key auth against api.nutcache.com and handling the request plumbing yourself. Through Jentic you install once, import Nutcache from the API Directory, store the key once, and your agent calls it.
Permission scoping
Nutcache carries no resource id in the paths you use, so scope the agent to the operations it needs: you can allow listing projects and logging timesheets while leaving project creation out. You choose the operations it may call, so it only reaches the endpoints you list.
Credential isolation
Your Nutcache 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 'log a time entry' or 'list Nutcache projects', and Jentic returns the matching Nutcache operation with its input schema so the agent calls the right endpoint without browsing the reference docs.

Specific to using Nutcache API through Jentic.
Why is there no official OpenAPI spec for Nutcache API?
Nutcache does not publish an OpenAPI specification. Jentic generates and maintains this spec so that AI agents and developers can call Nutcache API via structured tooling. It is validated against the live API and kept up to date. Get started with Jentic One, the self-hosted execution layer.
What authentication does the Nutcache API use?
The spec declares an apiKey scheme. Through Jentic the API key is stored encrypted in the vault and injected at execution, so it never appears in the agent's prompt or chat history.
Can I create a new project through the API?
Yes. POST /projects creates a project and returns its identifier, which downstream POST /timesheets calls reference. Use this to provision projects when a new client engagement starts in your CRM.
How do I log time entries through Jentic?
Search Jentic for 'log a Nutcache time entry', load the schema for POST /timesheets, and execute with the project ID and duration. Jentic injects the API key from the vault and returns the created timesheet record.
What are the rate limits for the Nutcache API?
Rate limits are not declared in the OpenAPI spec. Nutcache applies plan-based limits in production; check your account dashboard for the exact quota that applies to your API key.
Does the Nutcache API expose invoicing or expenses?
No. This spec covers projects and timesheets only. Invoicing, expenses, and budgets remain in-app for now and are not exposed through these endpoints.
Can I limit what my agent is allowed to do with the Nutcache API?
Yes. Because you run Jentic One yourself, your own rules decide which Nutcache operations the agent can reach, and it only calls the endpoints you list. The Nutcache paths carry no resource id, so you scope at the operation level: for example, allow listing projects (GET /projects) and logging time (POST /timesheets) while leaving project creation (POST /projects) out. Your API key stays with your instance and is injected only when the agent runs one of the operations you have permitted.

For Agents
Create projects and log timesheet entries in Nutcache, and pull project and time data for reporting.
Use for: List all projects in Nutcache, Create a new project in Nutcache, Log time against a Nutcache project, Retrieve timesheet entries for a date range
Not supported: Does not handle invoicing, expenses, or payroll - use for Nutcache project listing and timesheet logging only.
Jentic publishes the only available OpenAPI specification for Nutcache API, keeping it validated and agent-ready. Nutcache is a project management and time-tracking platform used by agencies and small teams to plan tasks, log billable hours, and invoice clients. The API exposes endpoints to list and create projects and to list and log timesheet entries, allowing automation around resourcing and billing. It is typically integrated by agencies that want to push timesheet entries from external tools and pull project data into reporting dashboards.
