Can I use Jina AI as a CLI?

Yes. KosmoKrator exposes a Jina AI CLI through kosmo integrations:call and the provider shortcut command. Commands can return JSON for scripts, CI, and coding agents.

Can I expose Jina AI through MCP?

Yes. The KosmoKrator MCP gateway can expose selected Jina AI tools to clients such as Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, and other MCP-compatible tools.

Where are Jina AI credentials stored?

Jina AI credentials are configured in KosmoKrator's local integration settings and reused by CLI, Lua, and MCP gateway surfaces.

Can I deny write access for Jina AI MCP tools?

Yes. Start the gateway with --write=deny for read-only clients, or use ask/allow only for trusted workspaces.

Jina AI CLI for Shell Scripts

Call integration functions from shell scripts with stable JSON input and output.

Use shell scripts for small local automations that need one or more integration calls. The Jina AI CLI uses the same integration registry as the TUI, Lua runtime, and MCP gateway, but returns predictable command output for automation.

Command Shape

# Jina AI CLI for Shell Scripts
kosmokrator integrations:configure jinaai --set api_key="$JINAAI_API_KEY" --enable --read allow --write ask --json
kosmo integrations:call jinaai.jinaai_search '{"q":"example_q"}' --json

Discovery Before Execution

Agents and scripts can inspect Jina AI docs and schemas before choosing a function.

kosmo integrations:docs jinaai --json
kosmo integrations:docs jinaai.jinaai_search --json
kosmo integrations:schema jinaai.jinaai_search --json
kosmo integrations:search "Jina AI" --json
kosmo integrations:list --json

Useful Jina AI CLI Functions

Function	Type	Parameters	Description
`jinaai.jinaai_search`	Read	q	Search the web using Jina AI. Returns search results with titles, URLs, descriptions, and extracted content. Useful for finding up-to-date information on any topic.
`jinaai.jinaai_read`	Read	url	Read and extract clean content from a URL using Jina AI Reader. Returns the main text content of a web page, stripping away navigation, ads, and other clutter. Useful for reading articles, documentation, or any web page.
`jinaai.jinaai_ground`	Read	statement, context	Ground a statement against provided context using Jina AI. Verifies whether a claim or statement is supported by the given reference text. Returns grounding results indicating which parts of the statement are supported or contradicted.
`jinaai.jinaai_embeddings`	Read	input, model	Generate text embeddings using Jina AI. Converts text into dense vector representations useful for semantic search, similarity comparison, clustering, and retrieval-augmented generation (RAG).
`jinaai.jinaai_rerank`	Read	query, documents, model, top_n	Rerank documents by relevance to a query using Jina AI. Takes a query and a list of text documents, then returns them sorted by relevance with scores. Useful for improving search results or filtering the most relevant content.

Automation Notes

Use --json for machine-readable output.
Keep credentials out of argv by using environment variables or stored KosmoKrator configuration.
Configure read/write policy before unattended runs; use --force only for trusted automation.
Use the MCP gateway instead when the agent needs dynamic tool discovery inside a conversation.
