Install Jentic One Beta

Connect the KustoManagementClient to your agent

Jentic One is a self-hosted execution layer for AI agents. It lets your agent call the KustoManagementClient, 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

Provision and manage Azure Data Explorer (Kusto) clusters, databases, and data connections through Azure Resource Manager. Use for cluster lifecycle and configuration, not for running KQL queries.

Use for: I need to provision a new Azure Data Explorer cluster in West Europe, Scale up an existing Kusto cluster to a larger SKU, Create a database inside a Kusto cluster with a 90-day retention policy, Set up an Event Hub data connection that streams telemetry into a Kusto table

Not supported: Does not run KQL queries, ingest event data, or manage table schemas - use only for provisioning and configuring Kusto clusters, databases, and data connections through Azure Resource Manager.

Use Cases

Patterns agents use KustoManagementClient API for, with concrete tasks.

★ Provision Telemetry Analytics Infrastructure

Platform teams building observability or product analytics pipelines need to stand up Azure Data Explorer clusters that ingest high-volume telemetry from Event Hubs. KustoManagementClient handles the full cluster lifecycle (PUT on /clusters/{clusterName}), database creation, and Event Hub data-connection wiring in one Azure Resource Manager flow. Provisioning a Standard_D13_v2 cluster typically takes 10-15 minutes via the asynchronous PUT pattern.

Create a new Kusto cluster named 'telemetry-prod' in eastus with SKU Standard_D13_v2 and capacity 2, then create a database 'events' with 90-day soft-delete retention, then add an Event Hub data connection pointing at the 'raw-events' hub.

Cost Control Through Cluster Stop/Start

Engineering teams reduce Azure Data Explorer compute spend by stopping non-production clusters outside business hours and restarting them on demand. The Clusters_Stop and Clusters_Start endpoints suspend compute billing while preserving data and configuration. A scheduled agent or runbook can list clusters tagged with environment=dev and stop them at 18:00, then restart at 08:00.

List Kusto clusters in the subscription tagged environment=dev, then call Clusters_Stop on each cluster that is currently in the Running state.

Multi-Tenant Follower Database Sharing

SaaS platforms expose customer-facing analytics by attaching follower databases from a central leader cluster to per-tenant clusters. The AttachedDatabaseConfigurations resource lets you configure read-only follower attachments without copying data. This pattern keeps storage costs flat while letting tenant-side clusters scale independently for query concurrency.

Create an AttachedDatabaseConfiguration on the 'tenant-a' cluster that follows the 'shared-analytics' database from the leader cluster's resource ID, with default principal modifications kind 'None'.

AI Agent ADX Operations

AI agents handling DevOps or SRE workloads use Jentic to discover and execute Kusto management operations without hardcoding ARM URLs. The agent searches for an intent like 'create azure data explorer cluster', loads the Clusters_CreateOrUpdate schema from Jentic, and executes against management.azure.com using an OAuth 2.0 token retrieved from your Jentic One instance.

Use Jentic to search 'provision azure data explorer cluster', load the Clusters_CreateOrUpdate operation schema, and execute a PUT to create the cluster in the requested resource group with the agent's scoped Azure credential.

Key Endpoints

34 endpoints — jentic publishes the only available openapi specification for kustomanagementclient, keeping it validated and agent-ready.

Why Jentic?

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

Credential isolation

Your Azure AD credential for the Kusto control plane 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 Kusto clusters' or 'check a Kusto cluster name', and Jentic returns the matching Kusto operation with its input schema so the agent calls the right endpoint without browsing the reference docs.

FAQs

Specific to using KustoManagementClient API through Jentic.

Why is there no official OpenAPI spec for KustoManagementClient?

Microsoft Azure does not publish an OpenAPI specification. Jentic generates and maintains this spec so that AI agents and developers can call KustoManagementClient via structured tooling. It is validated against the live API and kept up to date. Get started with Jentic One, the self-hosted execution layer.

What authentication does the KustoManagementClient use?

It uses Azure Active Directory OAuth 2.0 bearer tokens for the management.azure.com audience. Through Jentic, AAD client credentials live in the encrypted vault and a short-lived bearer token is injected into the Authorization header at call time - the client secret never enters the agent's context.

Can I run KQL queries with the KustoManagementClient?

No. This is the management plane. To execute KQL queries against a database, use the Azure Data Explorer query endpoint at https://{clusterName}.{region}.kusto.windows.net via the Kusto data-plane SDKs. KustoManagementClient only handles cluster, database, and connection lifecycle through Azure Resource Manager.

What are the rate limits for the KustoManagementClient?

Azure Resource Manager applies subscription-level throttling - typically 12,000 read and 1,200 write requests per hour per subscription per region, with 429 responses including a Retry-After header. Cluster create operations are long-running and return 202 Accepted with an Azure-AsyncOperation URL to poll.

How do I provision a Kusto cluster through Jentic?

Run pip install jentic, then search Jentic for 'provision azure data explorer cluster'. Jentic returns the Clusters_CreateOrUpdate schema (PUT /subscriptions/{subscriptionId}/resourceGroups/{resourceGroupName}/providers/Microsoft.Kusto/clusters/{clusterName}). Load it, fill in SKU and location, then execute - Jentic handles AAD token injection.

Can I add an Event Hub data connection to a Kusto database?

Yes. Use the DataConnections sub-resource on a Kusto database to wire up Event Hub, IoT Hub, or Event Grid streaming ingestion. The connection definition includes the Event Hub resource ID, consumer group, target table, and data format (JSON, CSV, etc.).

Can I limit what my agent is allowed to do with the Microsoft Azure Kusto API?

Yes. Because you run Jentic One yourself, your own rules decide which Kusto operations and credentials the agent may use, and the cluster name sits in the request path, so you can pin the agent to a single cluster. You might allow it only to read a cluster, list available SKUs, and check name availability, while withholding the create, update, and delete operations so it cannot provision or tear down infrastructure unless you explicitly add those. The same control applies to database and data-connection operations, so the agent calls only the endpoints you have approved.
