## Why Jentic

- **Setup:** Wiring the Zalando Shop API by hand means reading its catalog endpoints, paging through articles and reviews, and coding the request handling for each read yourself. Through Jentic you install once, import Zalando Shop from the API Directory, and your agent calls it against api.zalando.com without that plumbing.
- **Permission scoping:** Zalando Shop puts the article id in the URL path (`/articles/{articleId}/reviews`), so a rule can pin your agent to reads for one article and its media and reviews. This API exposes only GET reads, so you choose which lookups the agent may call and nothing writes back to the shop.
- **Credential handling:** This API needs no credential, so there is no secret to store, and any configuration your Jentic One instance holds is kept encrypted and injected at execution time. Nothing enters the agent's prompt, logs, or context.
- **Discovery method:** Agents search Jentic by intent such as 'get article reviews' or 'look up an article by id', and Jentic returns the matching Zalando Shop operation with its input schema so the agent calls the right endpoint without browsing the reference docs.
