Alpaca APIs for AI Agents

Setup

Wiring Alpaca by hand means encoding two different auth models across three hosts and coordinating account, order, and data calls yourself. Through Jentic you install Jentic One once, add the Broker, Trading, and Market Data APIs from the Jentic directory, store each credential once, and your agent calls them.

Permission scoping

Because Jentic One is self-hosted, your own rules decide which Alpaca operations and credentials each agent may use. Account and symbol ids sit in the URL paths, so a rule can pin an agent to one customer account or one symbol, and write actions like placing orders or closing positions are only available if you add them.

Credential isolation

Your Alpaca Broker basic credential and your Trading and Market Data key pairs are each stored once, encrypted, by your own Jentic One instance and injected at execution time. They never enter the agent's prompt, logs, or context.
