For Agents
Programmatically run a new workflow, list workflows for a project. Covers 34 operations with apiKey authentication.
Jentic One is a self-hosted execution layer for AI agents. It lets your agent call the Semaphore CI 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.
# On the machine that will host your Jentic One instance:
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jentic/jentic-one/main/tools/install.sh | sh# 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 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 Semaphore CI API API.
Run a new workflow
List workflows for a project
Describe a workflow
Rerun a workflow
Stop a workflow
GET STARTED
Use for: I need to run a new workflow, I want to workflows for a project, Search for describe a workflow, Find all rerun a workflow
Not supported: Does not handle payments, communications, or developer tools — use for crm only.
Jentic publishes the only available OpenAPI document for Semaphore CI API, keeping it validated and agent-ready.
REST API for Semaphore CI/CD platform. Manage workflows, pipelines, jobs, promotions, deployment targets, self-hosted agents, and artifact retention policies. The API exposes 34 endpoints secured with apiKey authentication.
Patterns agents use Semaphore CI API API for, with concrete tasks.
★ CRM Operations
Use the Semaphore CI API to perform crm operations programmatically. The API provides 34 endpoints covering core functionality including run a new workflow, list workflows for a project, describe a workflow.
Call POST /plumber-workflows to run a new workflow
Automated Agents Management
Automate agents operations by combining multiple Semaphore CI API endpoints. Agents can list workflows for a project and then describe a workflow in a single workflow.
Call GET /plumber-workflows to list workflows for a project, then verify the result
AI Agent Integration via Jentic
AI agents discover and call Semaphore CI 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 apiKey tokens manually.
Search Jentic for 'run a new workflow', load the operation schema, and execute with Jentic-managed credentials

Three things that make agents converge on Jentic-routed access.
Credential isolation
Semaphore CI API apiKey credentials are stored encrypted in the Jentic vault (MAXsystem). Agents receive scoped access tokens — raw secrets never enter the agent context.
Intent-based discovery
Agents search by intent (e.g., 'run a new workflow') and Jentic returns the matching Semaphore CI API operation with its input schema, so the agent can call the right endpoint without browsing docs.
Time to first call
Direct Semaphore CI API integration: 1-3 days for auth handling, response parsing, and error cases. Through Jentic: under 1 hour — search, load schema, execute.

Specific to using Semaphore CI API API through Jentic.
What authentication does the Semaphore CI API use?
The Semaphore CI API uses an API key passed in the `Authorization` header. Through Jentic, these credentials are stored encrypted in the MAXsystem vault and injected at execution time, so raw secrets never enter the agent context.
Can I run a new workflow with the Semaphore CI API?
Yes. Use the POST /plumber-workflows endpoint. The API returns structured JSON responses that agents can parse and act on directly.
What are the rate limits for the Semaphore CI 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 run a new workflow through Jentic?
Install the Jentic SDK with pip install jentic, authenticate at https://app.jentic.com/sign-up, then search for 'run a new workflow'. Jentic returns the matching Semaphore CI API operation with its input schema. Load the schema and execute the call — credentials are injected automatically.
How many endpoints does the Semaphore CI API have?
The Semaphore CI API exposes 34 endpoints covering agents, artifacts_retention_policies, deployment_targets operations.
