Install Jentic One Beta
Jentic One is a self-hosted execution layer for AI agents. It lets your agent call the Orbit 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%2Forbit.love%2Forbit" | 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%2Forbit.love%2Forbit" | 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 Orbit API.
List and create members in a workspace
Record and read activities for members
Add notes and identities to members
List and read organizations and their members
Read workspace reports
GET STARTED
Manage webhooks for a workspace
Patterns agents use Orbit API for, with concrete tasks.
★ Member Sync
An agent keeps the community roster current by listing members with GET /{workspace_slug}/members and adding new ones with POST /{workspace_slug}/members. This lets a sign-up flow feed Orbit without manual entry.
List members with GET /{workspace_slug}/members and add new ones with POST /{workspace_slug}/members
Activity Logging
A relations agent records engagement by posting to POST /{workspace_slug}/activities when a member does something noteworthy. This builds an activity history that reports can draw on.
Record the engagement with POST /{workspace_slug}/activities for the member
Engagement Reporting
An agent reads GET /{workspace_slug}/reports to summarize how a community is doing and surface trends. This gives a team a current view without opening the dashboard.
Read the summary with GET /{workspace_slug}/reports for the workspace
Member Enrichment
When new context arrives, an agent adds a note or identity to a member so the record stays complete. Notes and identity endpoints let it attach detail gathered from other systems.
Attach context to the member with the notes and identities endpoints
33 endpoints — orbit is a community-management platform, and this api manages the members, activities, and organizations that make up a community workspace.

What agents get from Jentic-routed access to this vendor.
Setup
Wiring the Orbit API by hand means setting up bearer token authentication, learning its 33 operations across members, activities, organizations, and reports, and threading the workspace_slug through calls against https://app.orbit.love/api/v1. Through Jentic you install once, import the Orbit API from the API Directory, store the credential once, and your agent calls it.
Permission scoping
Because you run Jentic One yourself, you decide which Orbit operations the agent may call. Allow read-only access to members and reports, for example, and leave member creation, activity writes, and deletes out of the allowed set unless you add them.
Credential isolation
Your Orbit token is stored once, encrypted, by your own Jentic One instance and injected on the Authorization header at execution time. It never enters the agent's prompt, logs, or context.
Intent-based discovery
Agents search Jentic by intent, such as 'add a new member to a workspace' or 'record an activity for a member', and Jentic returns the matching Orbit operation with its input schema so the agent calls the right endpoint.

Specific to using Orbit API through Jentic.
What can an AI agent do with the Orbit API?
An agent can list and create members, record and read activities, add notes and identities, read organizations and reports, and manage webhooks. It covers the day-to-day of keeping a community workspace current.
What authentication does the Orbit API use?
The specification declares bearer token authentication, so each request carries the token in the Authorization header. Through Jentic that token is held by your own instance and set on the request at execution time.
Are Orbit operations scoped to a workspace?
Yes. Most endpoints take a workspace_slug in the path, so calls act on one workspace at a time. GET /workspaces lists the workspaces an agent can act on.
Is there an MCP server for the Orbit API?
You do not need a separate MCP server to use the Orbit API with an agent. Through Jentic One, the self-hosted execution layer, your agent calls the operations directly after you import them from the API Directory. Install Jentic One from github.com/jentic/jentic-one to run it yourself.
How does my agent discover Orbit operations through Jentic?
Agents search Jentic by intent, such as 'add a new member to a workspace', and Jentic returns the matching operation with its input schema. The agent then calls the right endpoint without reading the full reference.
Can I limit what my agent is allowed to do with the Orbit API?
Yes. Because you run Jentic One yourself, you decide which Orbit operations the agent may call. You can allow read-only access to members and reports, and leave member creation, activity writes, and deletes out of the allowed set unless you add them, so the agent acts only within the operations you permit.

For Agents
Manage community members, activities, organizations, notes, and reports within an Orbit workspace.
Use for: List the members of a workspace, Add a new member to a workspace, Record an activity for a member, Add a note to a member
Not supported: Does not host community conversations itself. Use it to manage members, activities, organizations, notes, reports, and webhooks within an Orbit workspace.
Orbit is a community-management platform, and this API manages the members, activities, and organizations that make up a community workspace. An agent can list and create members, record activities against them, add notes and identities, read reports, and manage webhooks. It fits developer-relations and community teams that want to keep member records and engagement current without manual data entry. Most operations are scoped to a workspace by its slug.
