02 / setup

Configure a coding tool safely

Claude Code integrations commonly use ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL and ANTHROPIC_AUTH_TOKEN, but the exact endpoint and authentication requirements are provider-specific.

export ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL="YOUR_PROVIDER_ENDPOINT"
export ANTHROPIC_AUTH_TOKEN="YOUR_PROVIDER_TOKEN"

# Follow the provider's official Claude Code or coding-plan quick start.
# Confirm region, quota window and supported tools before use.

GLM Coding Plan has a dedicated coding endpoint documented for Claude Code, Cursor and Cline. Start from its official FAQ and quick start rather than guessing an API URL.
