Install Jentic One Beta

Connect the Space-Track Satellite Tracking API to your agent

Jentic One is a self-hosted execution layer for AI agents. It lets your agent call the Space-Track Satellite Tracking 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%2Fspace-track.org%2Fspace-track" | sh

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%2Fspace-track.org%2Fspace-track" | sh
jentic register       # connects your agent to your Jentic One instance

Jentic 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.

Use Cases

Patterns agents use Space-Track Satellite Tracking API for, with concrete tasks.

★ Communications Operations

Use the Space-Track Satellite Tracking API to perform communications operations programmatically. The API provides 11 endpoints covering core functionality including authenticate and get session, get current utc time, query general perturbations data.

Call POST /ajaxauth/login to authenticate and get session

Automated Authentication Management

Automate authentication operations by combining multiple Space-Track Satellite Tracking API endpoints. Agents can get current utc time and then query general perturbations data in a single workflow.

Call GET /time/getTime to get current utc time, then verify the result

AI Agent Integration via Jentic

AI agents discover and call Space-Track Satellite Tracking 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 'authenticate and get session', load the operation schema, and execute with Jentic-managed credentials

Why Jentic?

What agents get from Jentic-routed access to this vendor.

Setup

Wiring Space-Track by hand means running its cookie-session login flow to get a chocolatechip session, then querying the basicspacedata classes like gp, satcat, and decay against a single host while you manage session refresh yourself. Through Jentic you install once, import the Space-Track Satellite Tracking API from the API Directory, store the credentials once, and your agent calls it.

Permission scoping

The Space-Track query surface is read-only data retrieval, so limit the agent to the operations it needs, such as querying the gp catalog or reading decay predictions. You choose the operations it may call, so it only reads the space-object data classes you allow and nothing more.

Credential isolation

Your Space-Track credentials 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 'get current TLE data for a satellite' or 'look up a decay prediction', and Jentic returns the matching Space-Track operation with its input schema so the agent calls the right endpoint without browsing the reference docs.

FAQs

Specific to using Space-Track Satellite Tracking API through Jentic.

What authentication does the Space-Track Satellite Tracking API use?

The Space-Track Satellite Tracking API uses an API key passed in the `chocolatechip` cookie. 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 authenticate and get session with the Space-Track Satellite Tracking API?

Yes. Use the POST /ajaxauth/login endpoint. The API returns structured JSON responses that agents can parse and act on directly.

What are the rate limits for the Space-Track Satellite Tracking 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 authenticate and get session through Jentic?

Install the Jentic SDK with pip install jentic, authenticate through Jentic One, the self-hosted execution layer, then search for 'authenticate and get session'. Jentic returns the matching Space-Track Satellite Tracking API operation with its input schema. Load the schema and execute the call - credentials are injected automatically.

How many endpoints does the Space-Track Satellite Tracking API have?

The Space-Track Satellite Tracking API exposes 11 endpoints covering authentication, space data, utilities operations.

Can I limit what my agent is allowed to do with the Space-Track Satellite Tracking API?

Yes. Because Jentic One is self-hosted, you set the rules that decide which Space-Track operations your agent may call, and it can only use the ones you allow. The Space-Track surface is read-only data retrieval, so you can restrict the agent to just the classes it needs, such as querying the gp catalog, reading the satellite catalog, or looking up decay predictions, while leaving the rest off limits. Credentials are stored once by your own instance and injected only for the operations you permit, so the agent reads the space-object data you approve and nothing more.
