For Agents
Create AWS CodeStar projects from templates, list their underlying AWS resources, and manage team members and user profiles. Backed by 18 endpoints across projects, team members, and user profiles.
Use for: I need to create a CodeStar project from a Lambda template, List all team members on a CodeStar project, Add a team member to a CodeStar project as a Contributor, List the AWS resources tied to a CodeStar project
Not supported: Does not handle pipeline execution, deployment orchestration, or source-code editing - use for CodeStar project, team member, and user profile management only.
Jentic publishes the only available OpenAPI specification for AWS CodeStar, keeping it validated and agent-ready. AWS CodeStar provides project-template-driven scaffolding that ties together CodeCommit, CodeBuild, CodeDeploy, CodePipeline, and CloudFormation under a single project. The API covers projects, team members, user profiles, and resource listings, so an agent can create a CodeStar project from a template, list its underlying AWS resources, and manage team membership.
Install Jentic One Beta
Connect the AWS CodeStar to your agent
Jentic One is a self-hosted execution layer for AI agents. It lets your agent call the AWS CodeStar, 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://jentic.com/install.sh?src=apis&api=%2Fapis%2Famazonaws.com%2Fcodestar" | sh2
Step 2: Agent machine
# On the machine where your agent runs (keep this separate from the instance):
curl -fsSL "https://jentic.com/install.sh?src=apis&api=%2Fapis%2Famazonaws.com%2Fcodestar" | sh
jentic register # connects your agent to your Jentic One instanceJentic 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.
Capabilities
What an agent can do with AWS CodeStar API.
Create a CodeStar project from a built-in or custom template covering source, build, and deploy resources
List AWS resources (CodeCommit repository, CodePipeline pipeline, EC2 or Lambda targets) backing a CodeStar project
Associate and disassociate team members on a project with a project role
Update team member project roles and remote-access permissions
Manage CodeStar user profile attributes including SSH public key and display name
Tag CodeStar projects for cost allocation and ownership
Use Cases
Patterns agents use AWS CodeStar API for, with concrete tasks.
★ Templated Project Provisioning
CodeStar's CreateProject takes a template (or a toolchain S3 reference for custom templates) and provisions a CodeCommit repository, CodeBuild project, CodePipeline pipeline, and target compute (EC2, Lambda, or Beanstalk) under one project ID. ListResources returns the ARNs of every backing resource, so an agent can hand off ARNs to downstream automation. This is useful when bootstrapping new microservices that follow a standard organisational shape.
Create a CodeStar project named billing-svc from template 'aws-lambda-nodejs' and list the resources it provisioned
Team Membership Lifecycle
Engineering managers use AssociateTeamMember, DisassociateTeamMember, and UpdateTeamMember to grant or revoke project access with roles such as Owner, Contributor, and Viewer. ListTeamMembers gives a per-project membership snapshot. Remote-access permissions for EC2-backed projects are also toggled here, so agents can offboard a leaving engineer with a single sequence of calls.
Disassociate user-arn arn:aws:iam::..:user/jane from project billing-svc and confirm the resulting team member list
Project Inventory and Ownership
Platform teams use ListProjects, DescribeProject, and ListTagsForProject to maintain a catalogue of CodeStar projects across an account, including their underlying resource set. This is helpful when consolidating ownership during reorganisations or when migrating projects off CodeStar templates onto custom IaC.
List all CodeStar projects and tag any without an Owner tag with Owner=unassigned
AI Agent Integration via Jentic
Through Jentic, an AI agent uses CodeStar by searching for an intent like 'create a CodeStar project', loading the CreateProject schema, and executing it with a project name and template. Jentic signs the SigV4 request server-side using IAM credentials in your Jentic One instance.
Search Jentic for 'create a CodeStar project', load the CreateProject schema, and execute it for a Node.js Lambda template

What agents get from Jentic-routed access to this vendor.
Setup
Wiring AWS CodeStar by hand means signing every request with AWS Signature v4 HMAC, choosing the correct regional host like codestar.{region}.amazonaws.com, and dispatching each operation through the X-Amz-Target header rather than a REST path. Through Jentic you install once, import AWS CodeStar from the API Directory, store the AWS access key and secret once, and your agent calls it.
Permission scoping
CodeStar routes operations through the X-Amz-Target header and carries the project id and team member in the request body, not the URL path, so scoping is by operation. You limit the agent to the operations it needs, such as DescribeProject or ListProjects, so DisassociateTeamMember or DeleteProject are not included unless you add them.
Credential isolation
Your AWS access key and secret are stored once, encrypted, by your own Jentic One instance and injected at execution time when the request is signed. They never enter the agent's prompt, logs, or context.
Intent-based discovery
Agents search Jentic by intent such as 'create a CodeStar project' or 'list CodeStar team members', and Jentic returns the matching CodeStar operation with its input schema, so the agent calls CreateProject or ListTeamMembers directly without browsing AWS docs.

FAQs
Specific to using AWS CodeStar API through Jentic.
Why is there no official OpenAPI spec for AWS CodeStar?
AWS does not publish an OpenAPI specification. Jentic generates and maintains this spec so that AI agents and developers can call AWS CodeStar 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 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.
