For Agents

Programmatically fetch the list of cards, finds card by global id. Covers 33 operations.

Use for: I need to fetch the list of cards, I want to finds card by global id, Get the current status of TCGdex API resources, List all records from TCGdex API

Install Jentic One Beta

Connect the TCGdex API to your agent

Jentic One is a self-hosted execution layer for AI agents. It lets your agent call the TCGdex 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%2Ftcgdex.net%2Ftcgdex" | 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%2Ftcgdex.net%2Ftcgdex" | 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 TCGdex API for, with concrete tasks.

★ Developer Tools Operations

Use the TCGdex API to perform developer tools operations programmatically. The API provides 33 endpoints covering core functionality including fetch the list of cards, finds card by global id.

Call GET /cards to fetch the list of cards

Data Retrieval and Monitoring

Query TCGdex API 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 TCGdex API endpoint, compare response to last known state, and alert if changed

AI Agent Integration via Jentic

AI agents discover and call TCGdex 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 none tokens manually.

Search Jentic for 'fetch the list of cards', load the operation schema, and execute with Jentic-managed credentials

Why Jentic?

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

Setup

The TCGdex API needs no auth credential, but wiring it by hand still means filling the language segment in its api.tcgdex.net/v2/{lang} host, tracking its card paths, and building your own retry handling. Through Jentic you install once, import the TCGdex API from the API Directory, and your agent calls it.

Permission scoping

The TCGdex API puts the card id in the URL path (/cards/{cardId}), so a rule can pin your agent to reading a specific card, and its listed operations only read card data. You choose the operations it may call, and none of them change state, so nothing destructive is included.

Credential isolation

The TCGdex API needs no credential, so there is nothing for the agent to hold; any configuration your Jentic One instance stores is kept encrypted and never enters the agent's prompt, logs, or context.

Intent-based discovery

Agents search Jentic by intent such as 'fetch the list of cards' or 'get a card by id', and Jentic returns the matching TCGdex API operation with its input schema so the agent calls the right endpoint without browsing the reference docs.

FAQs

Specific to using TCGdex API through Jentic.

What authentication does the TCGdex API use?

The TCGdex API uses no authentication. 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 fetch the list of cards with the TCGdex API?

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

What are the rate limits for the TCGdex 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 fetch the list of cards through Jentic?

Install the Jentic SDK with pip install jentic, authenticate through Jentic One, the self-hosted execution layer, then search for 'fetch the list of cards'. Jentic returns the matching TCGdex API operation with its input schema. Load the schema and execute the call - credentials are injected automatically.

How many endpoints does the TCGdex API have?

The TCGdex API exposes 33 endpoints covering cards, filters operations.
