Install Jentic One Beta
Jentic One is a self-hosted execution layer for AI agents. It lets your agent call the Remember The Milk, 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%2Frememberthemilk.com%2Frememberthemilk" | 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%2Frememberthemilk.com%2Frememberthemilk" | 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 Remember The Milk API.
Call an RTM API method
Redirect user to authorization page
Integrate Remember The Milk into automated workflows
Query and filter Remember The Milk records by parameters
Monitor Remember The Milk operational status and events
GET STARTED
Patterns agents use Remember The Milk API for, with concrete tasks.
★ Identity and Authentication Operations
Use the Remember The Milk to perform identity auth operations programmatically. The API provides 2 endpoints covering core functionality including call an rtm API method, redirect user to authorization page.
Call GET /rest/ to call an rtm API method
Data Retrieval and Monitoring
Query Remember The Milk resources on a schedule to track changes, generate alerts, or feed downstream dashboards. Agents poll relevant endpoints, compare against previous state, and trigger actions when thresholds are crossed.
Poll the primary Remember The Milk endpoint, compare response to last known state, and alert if changed
AI Agent Integration via Jentic
AI agents discover and call Remember The Milk endpoints through Jentic without managing credentials directly. An agent searches for the required operation by intent, receives the matching endpoint schema, and executes the call with Jentic-managed authentication. This eliminates the need to read API documentation or handle apiKey tokens manually.
Search Jentic for 'call an rtm API method', load the operation schema, and execute with Jentic-managed credentials

What agents get from Jentic-routed access to this vendor.
Setup
Wiring Remember The Milk by hand means passing your api_key as a query parameter and computing the required api_sig MD5 signature over sorted parameters for every call. Through Jentic you install once, import Remember The Milk from the API Directory, store the key and secret once, and your agent calls it.
Permission scoping
Remember The Milk routes every call through its rest and auth endpoints rather than per-resource URL paths, so limit the agent to the operations it needs, such as reading data through the rest method. You choose the operations it may call, so the auth flow is not included unless you add it.
Credential isolation
Your Remember The Milk key and shared secret are stored once, encrypted, by your own Jentic One instance and injected at execution time. They never enter the agent's prompt, logs, or context.
Intent-based discovery
Agents search Jentic by intent such as 'call an RTM API method' or 'start the auth flow', and Jentic returns the matching Remember The Milk operation with its input schema so the agent calls the right endpoint without browsing the reference docs.

Specific to using Remember The Milk API through Jentic.
What authentication does the Remember The Milk use?
The Remember The Milk uses an API key passed in the `api_key` query. Through Jentic, these credentials are stored encrypted in your Jentic One instance and injected at execution time, so raw secrets never enter the agent context.
Can I call an rtm API method with the Remember The Milk?
Yes. Use the GET /rest/ endpoint. The API returns structured JSON responses that agents can parse and act on directly.
What are the rate limits for the Remember The Milk?
Rate limits are not specified in the OpenAPI spec. Check the vendor documentation for current limits. Through Jentic, rate limiting is handled automatically with retry logic built into the execution layer.
How do I call an rtm API method through Jentic?
Install the Jentic SDK with pip install jentic, authenticate through Jentic One, the self-hosted execution layer, then search for 'call an rtm API method'. Jentic returns the matching Remember The Milk operation with its input schema. Load the schema and execute the call - credentials are injected automatically.
How many endpoints does the Remember The Milk have?
The Remember The Milk exposes 2 endpoints covering general, authentication operations.
Can I limit what my agent is allowed to do with the Remember The Milk API?
Yes. Because Jentic One is self-hosted, you set the rules that decide which operations and credentials your agent may use. Remember The Milk routes every call through its rest and auth endpoints rather than per-resource paths, so you can restrict the agent to just the operations it needs, such as reading data through the GET /rest/ method. The GET /auth/ authorization flow stays out of reach unless you explicitly grant it.
For Agents
Programmatically call an rtm API method, redirect user to authorization page. Covers 2 operations with apiKey authentication.
Use for: I need to call an rtm API method, I want to redirect user to authorization page, Get the current status of Remember The Milk resources, List all records from Remember The Milk
Not supported: Does not handle payments, communications, or crm - use for identity and authentication only.
REST API for the Remember The Milk task management service. All methods are called via a single REST endpoint with the method name as a query parameter. Authentication uses API key with MD5 signature and auth tokens. The API exposes 2 endpoints secured with apiKey authentication.
