Install Jentic One Beta
Jentic One is a self-hosted execution layer for AI agents. It lets your agent call the Plane 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%2Fplane.so%2Fplane" | 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%2Fplane.so%2Fplane" | 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 Plane API.
Create projects and work items in a workspace
Move work items through project workflow states
Group work into cycles and modules
Label and categorize work items
List workspace members and project states
GET STARTED
Update work item fields on an existing item
Patterns agents use Plane API for, with concrete tasks.
★ AI Project Management Agent
An AI agent connected to Plane through Jentic can file work items from incoming requests, assign them to a cycle, and move them through workflow states as work progresses. Because Plane is open-source and self-hostable, teams keep their project data on their own infrastructure while the agent drives the board.
Create a work item in a project, add it to the current cycle, and set its workflow state to in-progress
Issue Tracking
Track issues as work items that move through a project's workflow states. The Plane API creates work items, updates their fields, and applies labels so a backlog stays organized and queryable.
Create a work item, apply a bug label, and move it to the triage state
Cycle and Module Planning
Plan work into cycles and modules to organize sprints and feature groupings. Plane lets an agent create cycles and modules in a project and list the states work items can occupy.
Create a new cycle for a project and list its workflow states
18 endpoints — the plane api manages projects and work items for teams using the open-source project management tool.

What agents get from Jentic-routed access to this vendor.
Setup
Wiring Plane by hand means sending its API key in a custom header and learning the workspace, project, and work-item path structure yourself. Through Jentic you install once, import Plane from the API Directory, store the key once, and your agent calls it.
Permission scoping
Plane puts the project id in the URL path, so a rule can pin your agent to one project: it can create and update work items there and nothing else. You choose the operations it may call, so project deletion is not included unless you add it.
Credential isolation
Your Plane 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 'create a work item' or 'list projects', and Jentic returns the matching Plane operation with its input schema so the agent calls the right endpoint without browsing the reference docs.
Alternatives and complements available in the Jentic catalogue.
Specific to using Plane API through Jentic.
Is there a Plane MCP server?
You don't need an MCP server to give your agent the Plane API. Jentic connects it directly from the API Directory: import it, store your API key once, and your agent can create and update work items. Operations are discovered on demand, so your agent's context stays lean.
Can I limit what my agent is allowed to do with the Plane API?
Yes. Plane puts the project id in the URL path, so a rule can pin your agent to one project and allow only work-item creation and updates there. The agent cannot delete the project or touch other projects unless you add those operations, and every call is logged.
What authentication does the Plane API use?
The Plane API authenticates with an API key sent in the X-API-Key header per its OpenAPI spec; you generate the key from Personal Access Tokens in your profile settings. With Jentic, the key is stored encrypted by your own Jentic One instance and injected at call time.
Can I create a work item with the Plane API?
Yes. The work-items endpoint creates an item in a project, and a related endpoint updates its fields and state. You can also add the item to a cycle or module and apply labels to categorize it.
What are the rate limits for the Plane API?
The OpenAPI spec does not specify rate limits. Check the Plane developer documentation at https://developers.plane.so for current limits before running bulk work-item operations.
How do I create a work item with the Plane API through Jentic?
Import the Plane API from the Jentic API Directory, store your API key once, and have your agent search by intent such as 'create a work item'. Jentic returns the create operation with its input schema, and your agent passes the workspace and project. To run it on your own infrastructure, install Jentic One from its GitHub repo.
For Agents
Create and update projects, work items, cycles, modules, labels, and workflow states in a Plane workspace. Programmatic access to an open-source Jira and Linear alternative.
Use for: Create a new work item in a project, List all projects in a workspace, Move a work item to a different state, Start a new cycle for a project
Not supported: Does not handle source code hosting, CI/CD, or time tracking. Use for project and work item management only.
The Plane API manages projects and work items for teams using the open-source project management tool. It creates and updates projects, work items, cycles, modules, labels, and workflow states within a workspace. Plane is positioned as a Jira and Linear alternative, giving agents programmatic control over an issue tracker that teams can self-host.
