Anthropic provides direct API access to Claude models. Choose this provider when you want Anthropic billing and rate limits without routing requests through a multi-provider gateway.

​
Get an API key

Create a key in the Anthropic Console. The organization that owns the key must have billing and model access enabled.

​
Configuration

Add Anthropic in Settings > Models and paste the key, or configure:
Roomote adds a recommended Claude model set after the provider connects. Model IDs use the anthropic/ prefix. You can keep one Claude model for every role or use a faster model for helper and explore work and a stronger model for coding, planning, and review.

​
Cost behavior

Anthropic charges the account for input and output tokens, with model-specific pricing and possible differences for features such as prompt caching. Roomote records token usage and estimates cost from its current model metadata. The Anthropic pricing page and console bill are the source of truth.

​
Verify setup

  1. save ANTHROPIC_API_KEY
  2. confirm recommended Anthropic models appear and enable at least one
  3. assign an anthropic/... model as the coding model or another role
  4. run a small task and check that it completes and reports token usage

​
Common issues

  • Authentication fails. Recreate the key and confirm it belongs to the organization with active API billing.
  • A model is unavailable. Confirm the model is available to the key’s organization, then refresh model metadata in Roomote.
  • Requests are rate-limited. Check the Anthropic Console limits and reduce concurrent work or request a higher usage tier.
