For Agents

Create, list, retrieve, and delete text pastes on Pastery with API key authentication via query parameter. Supports paste expiry and language tagging for syntax highlighting.

Install Jentic One Beta

Connect the Pastery API to your agent

Jentic One is a self-hosted execution layer for AI agents. It lets your agent call the Pastery 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.

Use Cases

Patterns agents use Pastery API for, with concrete tasks.

★ Quick Code Sharing with Expiry

Create pastes with automatic expiration through the Pastery API to share code snippets that self-delete after a specified duration. The POST endpoint accepts a duration parameter in minutes, a language tag for syntax highlighting, and the paste content. This is useful for sharing temporary credentials, debug output, or one-time code reviews where persistence is undesirable.

Create a paste via POST /paste/ with api_key query parameter, duration=60, language=python, and the code content in the request body

Paste Collection Management

Manage your complete paste collection through the Pastery API by listing all stored pastes and deleting those no longer needed. The GET endpoint at /paste/ returns all pastes associated with your API key, including their IDs, titles, languages, and creation dates. The DELETE endpoint removes individual pastes permanently by ID.

List all user pastes via GET /paste/ with api_key parameter, identify pastes older than 30 days, and delete each via DELETE /paste/{id}/

Developer Snippet Library

Use Pastery as a lightweight snippet storage service by creating pastes with descriptive language tags and retrieving them by ID when needed. The API returns paste content, language, and metadata in a clean JSON format. Compared to full-featured code repositories, Pastery provides zero-friction storage for small code fragments and configuration templates.

Retrieve paste content via GET /paste/{id}/ with api_key parameter and return the raw text content for use in a build script

AI Agent Paste Operations via Jentic

AI agents create and manage pastes on Pastery through Jentic to share generated code, configuration outputs, or analysis results during automated workflows. Jentic stores the API key securely and provides operation discovery, letting agents create pastes with appropriate expiry settings by describing their intent rather than constructing query-parameter-authenticated URLs manually.

Search Jentic for 'create a code paste with expiry', load the Pastery create operation schema, and execute with content, language=bash, and duration=120

Why Jentic?

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

Credential isolation

Pastery API keys are stored encrypted in the Jentic vault. Agents receive pre-authenticated request URLs with the api_key query parameter injected without key exposure.

Intent-based discovery

Agents search by intent (e.g., 'create a paste that expires in 2 hours') and Jentic returns matching Pastery operations with their parameter schemas, including valid values for duration and language.

Time to first call

Direct Pastery integration: under half a day (clean REST API, query-param auth). Through Jentic: under 15 minutes — search, load schema, execute.

FAQs

Specific to using Pastery API through Jentic.

Why is there no official OpenAPI spec for Pastery API?

Pastery does not publish an OpenAPI specification. Jentic generates and maintains this spec so that AI agents and developers can call Pastery 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 Pastery API use?

The API uses an API key passed as a query parameter named api_key on every request. Through Jentic, the API key is stored encrypted in the vault and automatically appended to request URLs without exposing it in agent context.

Can I set an expiry time on pastes?

Yes. Include a duration parameter (in minutes) when creating a paste via POST /paste/. For example, duration=60 creates a paste that expires after one hour. If omitted, the paste persists until manually deleted.

How do I list all my pastes?

Call GET /paste/ with your api_key as a query parameter. The endpoint returns a JSON array of all pastes associated with your account, including each paste's ID, title, language, and creation date.

How do I delete a paste?

Call DELETE /paste/{id}/ with your api_key as a query parameter and the paste identifier in the URL path. The paste is permanently removed and cannot be recovered.

How do I create a paste with syntax highlighting through Jentic?

Search Jentic for 'create a code paste on Pastery' to find the POST /paste/ operation. Load the schema to see parameters including content body, language, and duration. Execute with your desired values. Install with pip install jentic.
