Install Jentic One Beta

Connect the KERALA PUBLIC SERVICE COMMISSION, Kerala to your agent

Jentic One is a self-hosted execution layer for AI agents. It lets your agent call the KERALA PUBLIC SERVICE COMMISSION, Kerala, 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://raw.githubusercontent.com/jentic/jentic-one/main/tools/install.sh | sh

Step 2: Agent machine

# On the machine where your agent runs (keep this separate from the instance):
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jentic/jentic-one/main/tools/install.sh | 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.

For Agents

Issue Kerala PSC One Time Verification certificates to candidates as DigiLocker-compatible verified documents.

Use for: Retrieve a Kerala PSC OTV certificate for a candidate, Verify a candidate's Kerala public service eligibility, Pull a KPSC One Time Verification document into DigiLocker, Fetch a Kerala government job appointment certificate

Not supported: Does not handle exam registration, rank-list publication, or admission tickets - use for retrieving Kerala PSC One Time Verification certificates only.

Use Cases

Patterns agents use KERALA PUBLIC SERVICE COMMISSION, Kerala API for, with concrete tasks.

★ Government Appointment Verification

Kerala state government departments appointing candidates from PSC rank lists can pull the OTV certificate directly from API Setu instead of waiting for paper documents. The single operation returns a signed DigiLocker payload that proves the candidate has cleared the PSC-side scrutiny on qualifications, age, and eligibility.

Call POST /otcer/certificate with the candidate's PSC identifiers, retrieve the OTV certificate, and attach it to the appointing department's onboarding record.

DigiLocker Citizen Wallet Issuance

DigiLocker partner apps that aggregate citizens' verified government documents can list KPSC OTV certificates alongside academic and identity records. Once issued, the certificate stays available in the citizen's DigiLocker wallet for future job applications and departmental submissions.

Authenticate with X-APISETU-APIKEY and X-APISETU-CLIENTID, request the OTV certificate for a candidate, and store the issued document in the user's DigiLocker wallet.

Recruitment Background Check

Background-check vendors and HR-tech platforms operating in Kerala can replace manual KPSC certificate uploads with a programmatic fetch. Because the source is the issuing authority, the result is treated as authoritative and reduces back-and-forth with the candidate.

Retrieve a candidate's OTV certificate as part of a background-check workflow and surface the result alongside other verified credentials.

AI Agent Document Retrieval

An AI agent helping a citizen complete a Kerala government appointment can call the KPSC API through Jentic without exposing API Setu credentials in its context. Jentic returns the single operation by intent search and handles header injection, so the agent only needs to pass through the candidate's PSC reference.

Search Jentic for 'fetch Kerala PSC OTV certificate', load the schema, and execute it with the candidate's PSC identifiers.

Why Jentic?

Three things that make agents converge on Jentic-routed access.

Credential isolation

Your API Setu API key and client id 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 a Kerala PSC OTV certificate', and Jentic returns the POST /otcer/certificate operation with its input schema so the agent calls the right endpoint without browsing the API Setu documentation.

Time to first call

FAQs

Specific to using KERALA PUBLIC SERVICE COMMISSION, Kerala API through Jentic.

What authentication does the Kerala PSC API use?

The KPSC endpoint requires the X-APISETU-APIKEY and X-APISETU-CLIENTID headers issued by API Setu during integrator onboarding. Through Jentic, both values are stored encrypted in the vault and injected at call time, so they never appear in the agent's prompt or logs.

Can I fetch admission tickets or departmental test certificates with this API?

Not from this spec. The OpenAPI surface here exposes only POST /otcer/certificate (the One Time Verification certificate). Admission tickets and departmental test certificates are documented as part of the wider KPSC DigiLocker programme but are not endpoints in this version of the API.

What are the rate limits for the Kerala PSC API?

Rate limits are not declared in the spec; API Setu negotiates throughput per integrator during onboarding. Treat the OTV operation as low-frequency and cache issued certificates per candidate rather than re-requesting on each page view.

How do I issue an OTV certificate through Jentic?

Install the SDK with pip install jentic, then search Jentic for 'Kerala PSC OTV certificate', load the schema for POST /otcer/certificate, and execute it with the candidate's PSC identifiers. Jentic injects the X-APISETU-APIKEY and X-APISETU-CLIENTID headers from your stored credentials. Run it through Jentic One, the self-hosted execution layer.

Is the Kerala PSC API free to use?

API Setu is a Government of India service and the KPSC OTV endpoint is offered to onboarded integrators without per-call fees. You must complete the API Setu and DigiLocker partner onboarding to receive valid credentials.

Does the OTV response include a verifiable signature?

Yes. POST /otcer/certificate returns a DigiLocker-compatible record signed at the issuing authority. Downstream consumers can treat the certificate as a verified government document rather than as untrusted JSON.

Can I limit what my agent is allowed to do with the Kerala PSC API?

Yes. This API exposes a single operation, POST /otcer/certificate, and because you run Jentic One yourself, your own rules decide which operations and credentials the agent may use. You can add only the One Time Verification certificate call, so the agent can fetch OTV certificates and nothing else in the API Setu surface. Your API Setu API key and client id stay in your own instance and are injected at call time, never exposed to the agent.
