But that only passes --no-batch to gpg, not to gpg-agent. Werner said
you shouldn't put these options in your .conf-files. Please just include
--batch on the command line with the actual batch commands.

--pinentry-mode is a gpg option, not a gpg-agent option. The
loopback-related option to gpg-agent is --allow-loopback-pinentry.

Please just include --batch (I assume you mistyped when you wrote
--no-batch) on the command line with the actual batch commands.

Not sure what you mean by through the API.
