Install Jentic One Beta
Jentic One is a self-hosted execution layer for AI agents. It lets your agent call the RunCloud 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%2Fruncloud.io%2Fruncloud" | 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%2Fruncloud.io%2Fruncloud" | 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 RunCloud API.
Test API authentication
Create a server
List servers
Get server details
Monitor RunCloud API operational status and events
GET STARTED
Patterns agents use RunCloud API for, with concrete tasks.
★ Communications Operations
Use the RunCloud API to perform communications operations programmatically. The API provides 13 endpoints covering core functionality including test API authentication, create a server, list servers.
Call GET /ping to test API authentication
Automated Ping Management
Automate ping operations by combining multiple RunCloud API endpoints. Agents can create a server and then list servers in a single workflow.
Call POST /servers to create a server, then verify the result
AI Agent Integration via Jentic
AI agents discover and call RunCloud API 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 basic tokens manually.
Search Jentic for 'test API authentication', load the operation schema, and execute with Jentic-managed credentials
13 endpoints — runcloud api allows you to manage your servers, web applications, databases, and more programmatically.

What agents get from Jentic-routed access to this vendor.
Setup
Wiring RunCloud by hand means setting up its basic auth against manage.runcloud.io/api/v2 and building your own request handling across the servers collection. Through Jentic you install once, import RunCloud from the API Directory, store the credential once, and your agent calls it.
Permission scoping
RunCloud puts the server id in the URL path (/servers/{id}), so a rule can pin your agent to one server: it can read that server's details and stats and nothing else. You choose the operations it may call, so creating a server is not included unless you add it.
Credential isolation
Your RunCloud basic auth credential 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 'list my servers' or 'get a server's installation script', and Jentic returns the matching RunCloud operation with its input schema so the agent calls the right endpoint without browsing the reference docs.

Specific to using RunCloud API through Jentic.
What authentication does the RunCloud API use?
The RunCloud API uses HTTP Basic authentication with username and password. 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 test API authentication with the RunCloud API?
Yes. Use the GET /ping endpoint. The API returns structured JSON responses that agents can parse and act on directly.
What are the rate limits for the RunCloud API?
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 test API authentication through Jentic?
Install the Jentic SDK with pip install jentic, authenticate through Jentic One, the self-hosted execution layer, then search for 'test API authentication'. Jentic returns the matching RunCloud API operation with its input schema. Load the schema and execute the call - credentials are injected automatically.
How many endpoints does the RunCloud API have?
The RunCloud API exposes 13 endpoints covering ping, servers operations.
Can I limit what my agent is allowed to do with the RunCloud API?
Yes. Because Jentic One is self-hosted, you set the rules that decide which RunCloud operations and credentials your agent may use. Since RunCloud puts the server id in the URL path (/servers/{id}), you can pin an agent to a single server so it only reads that server's details and stats through endpoints like GET /servers/{id} and GET /servers/{id}/stats. You choose the operations it may call, so a write action such as POST /servers to create a server is excluded unless you explicitly allow it.
For Agents
Programmatically test API authentication, create a server. Covers 13 operations with basic authentication.
Use for: I need to test API authentication, I want to a server, Search for servers, Find all shared servers
Not supported: Does not handle payments, crm, or developer tools - use for communications only.
RunCloud API allows you to manage your servers, web applications, databases, and more programmatically. The API exposes 13 endpoints secured with basic authentication.
