For Agents
Programmatically get account information, list available projects. Covers 18 operations with bearer authentication.
Use for: I need to account information, I want to available projects, Search for specific project, Find all templates
Install Jentic One Beta
Jentic One is a self-hosted execution layer for AI agents. It lets your agent call the Stencil 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%2Fusestencil.com%2Fusestencil" | 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%2Fusestencil.com%2Fusestencil" | 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 Stencil API.
Get account information
List available projects
Copy template
Create image synchronously
GET STARTED
Not supported: Does not handle payments, communications, or crm - use for media and content only.
API for generating images, PDFs, and managing templates with Stencil. The API exposes 18 endpoints secured with bearer authentication.
Monitor Stencil API operational status and events
Patterns agents use Stencil API for, with concrete tasks.
★ Media and Content Operations
Use the Stencil API to perform media operations programmatically. The API provides 18 endpoints covering core functionality including get account information, list available projects, get specific project.
Call GET /account to get account information
Automated Account Management
Automate account operations by combining multiple Stencil API endpoints. Agents can list available projects and then get specific project in a single workflow.
Call GET /projects to list available projects, then verify the result
AI Agent Integration via Jentic
AI agents discover and call Stencil 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 bearer tokens manually.
Search Jentic for 'get account information', load the operation schema, and execute with Jentic-managed credentials

What agents get from Jentic-routed access to this vendor.
Setup
Wiring Stencil by hand means learning its bearer token auth against api.usestencil.com and hand-coding calls for every project, template, and image operation. Through Jentic you install once, import Stencil from the API Directory, store the token once, and your agent calls it.
Permission scoping
Stencil puts the project and template ids in the URL path (/projects/{id}, /templates/{id}), so a rule can pin your agent to one project or template. You choose the operations it may call, so writes like copying a template or syncing images are not included unless you add them.
Credential isolation
Your Stencil bearer token 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 image templates' or 'generate an image from a template', and Jentic returns the matching Stencil operation with its input schema so the agent calls the right endpoint without browsing the reference docs.
Alternatives and complements available in the Jentic catalogue.
Specific to using Stencil API through Jentic.
What authentication does the Stencil API use?
The Stencil API uses a Bearer token 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 get account information with the Stencil API?
Yes. Use the GET /account endpoint. The API returns structured JSON responses that agents can parse and act on directly.
What are the rate limits for the Stencil 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 get account information through Jentic?
Install the Jentic SDK with pip install jentic, authenticate through Jentic One, the self-hosted execution layer, then search for 'get account information'. Jentic returns the matching Stencil API operation with its input schema. Load the schema and execute the call - credentials are injected automatically.
How many endpoints does the Stencil API have?
The Stencil API exposes 18 endpoints covering account, airtables, collections operations.
/templates/{id}/copy
Copy template
/images/sync
Create image synchronously
/images
Create image asynchronously
