Install Jentic One Beta
Connect the Shireburn Indigo People API to your agent
Jentic One is a self-hosted execution layer for AI agents. It lets your agent call the Shireburn Indigo People 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%2Fshireburn.com%2Fshireburn" | sh2
Step 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%2Fshireburn.com%2Fshireburn" | 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.

Why Jentic?
What agents get from Jentic-routed access to this vendor.
Setup
Wiring the Shireburn Indigo People API by hand means placing your key in the Authorization header, pointing at the api.shireburn.com host, and threading it through employee and leave-request calls yourself. Through Jentic you install once, import the Shireburn Indigo People API from the API Directory, store the key once, and your agent calls it.
Permission scoping
Shireburn Indigo People takes its inputs in the request body rather than as path resources, so scope the agent to the operations it needs, such as listing employees or creating a leave request, and leave out the ones it should not run.
Credential isolation
Your Shireburn Indigo People 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 'add a new employee' or 'create a leave request', and Jentic returns the matching Shireburn Indigo People operation with its input schema so the agent calls the right endpoint without browsing the reference docs.

FAQs
Specific to using Shireburn Indigo People API through Jentic.
What authentication does the Shireburn Indigo People API use?
The Shireburn Indigo People API uses an API key passed in the `Authorization` header. 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 add a new employee with the Shireburn Indigo People API?
Yes. Use the POST /employees endpoint. The API returns structured JSON responses that agents can parse and act on directly.
What are the rate limits for the Shireburn Indigo People 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 add a new employee through Jentic?
Install the Jentic SDK with pip install jentic, authenticate through Jentic One, the self-hosted execution layer, then search for 'add a new employee'. Jentic returns the matching Shireburn Indigo People API operation with its input schema. Load the schema and execute the call - credentials are injected automatically.
How many endpoints does the Shireburn Indigo People API have?
The Shireburn Indigo People API exposes 4 endpoints covering employees, leave-requests operations.
Can I limit what my agent is allowed to do with the Shireburn Indigo People API?
Yes. Because Jentic One is self-hosted, you decide which of this API's operations your agent may call and which credentials it may use. Since the Shireburn Indigo People API takes its inputs in the request body rather than as path resources, you scope by operation: you can allow read-only calls like listing employees (GET /employees) or listing leave requests (GET /leave-requests) while withholding writes such as adding an employee (POST /employees) or submitting a leave request (POST /leave-requests). Only the operations you enable are exposed to the agent, and the stored key is injected at execution time under your rules.
