AWS CodeStar

What authentication does the AWS CodeStar API use?

CodeStar uses AWS Signature Version 4 (HMAC) signed requests with an IAM access key and secret. Through Jentic, IAM credentials live encrypted in your Jentic One instance and the SigV4 signature is computed server-side, so the agent context never holds the raw secret.

Can I list the AWS resources backing a CodeStar project?

Yes. Call ListResources with the project id, and the response returns an array of resource ARNs covering the CodeCommit repository, CodeBuild project, CodePipeline pipeline, and target compute resources tied to that project.

How do I add a team member to a CodeStar project?

Call AssociateTeamMember with the project id, the IAM user ARN, a projectRole (Owner, Contributor, or Viewer), and remoteAccessAllowed. UpdateTeamMember adjusts the role later, and DisassociateTeamMember removes the member.

What are the rate limits for the AWS CodeStar API?

AWS enforces per-account, per-region throttling on CodeStar; throttled requests return ThrottlingException. CodeStar's own service is being phased down by AWS - verify availability in your target region. The AWS SDKs that Jentic wraps implement exponential backoff automatically.

How do I create a CodeStar project through Jentic with an AI agent?

Run pip install jentic, then have the agent search for 'create a CodeStar project', load the CreateProject schema, and execute it with id, name, and a sourceCode/toolchain pair (or template). Use ListResources afterwards to capture the provisioned ARNs.

Can I limit what my agent is allowed to do with the AWS CodeStar API?

Yes. Because Jentic One is self-hosted, you write the rules that decide which CodeStar operations and credentials your agent may use. CodeStar routes every operation through the X-Amz-Target header and carries the project id and team member in the request body rather than the URL path, so scoping is done per operation. You can restrict the agent to read-only calls such as DescribeProject, ListProjects, and ListResources, leaving mutating operations like AssociateTeamMember, DisassociateTeamMember, and DeleteProject out unless you explicitly add them.
