AI Provider Setup · BYOK
Claude Opus, Sonnet, and Haiku straight from Anthropic.
Anthropic is the maker of Claude — the model Admaxxer itself is built on. Connect directly if you want first-party prompt caching, the lowest per-token latency on Claude, or your org already has an Anthropic enterprise agreement.
ANTHROPIC_API_KEYGo to console.anthropic.com and sign up with your work email. Anthropic separates Console (API) from claude.ai (chat) — you need the Console one.
Open Settings then Billing and add a card. Anthropic requires a payment method before the API will accept any requests, even for trial credits.
Navigate to console.anthropic.com/settings/keys. You may need to select a workspace first if your org has more than one.
Labels help you rotate later. We recommend one key per app so you can revoke just Admaxxer if it ever leaks.
The full key starts with sk-ant-api03- and is displayed exactly one time. Paste it somewhere safe before closing.
Go to Settings then AI Providers, find the Anthropic row, paste the key, and click Connect. Admaxxer runs a one-token test call to verify.
We recommend claude-opus-4-7 — best reasoning and tool use, 200K context. Use claude-sonnet-4-6 for cheaper day-to-day work.
Make sure the key starts with sk-ant-, billing is active in Console, and your workspace has API access enabled.
Once you've pasted your key into /settings/ai-providers, hit Test. Admaxxer makes a single no-cost call against the provider's /v1/models (or equivalent) endpoint and reports back:
These are the pinned model IDs Admaxxer tests against. The model picker in chat will show these plus any live-catalog entries the provider returns.
| Model ID | Display name | Context | Tools | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|---|
claude-opus-4-7 |
Claude Opus (recommended) | 200K | Yes | Top-tier reasoning and tool use. The default we ship with for Admaxxer chat. |
claude-sonnet-4-6 |
Claude Sonnet | 200K | Yes | Roughly 5x cheaper than Opus, still strong on tool use. Good for agent loops. |
claude-haiku-4-5-20251001 |
Claude Haiku | 200K | Yes | Fastest Claude. Use for quick classification, short summaries, batch work. |
When it happens: Immediately on Connect, if the key is wrong or revoked.
Fix: Go to console.anthropic.com/settings/keys, create a fresh key, paste it in.
When it happens: When you exceed per-minute or per-day token limits.
Fix: Anthropic rate-limits by org tier. Check console.anthropic.com/settings/limits and request a tier bump if needed.
When it happens: If billing is not set up or the card on file was declined.
Fix: Open console.anthropic.com/settings/billing and confirm the card is active.
When it happens: Overloaded — a rare capacity error under peak demand.
Fix: Retry after a short backoff. If it persists, switch to a Sonnet-tier model or via OpenRouter.
When it happens: If the model id is stale or not enabled for your account.
Fix: Use claude-opus-4-7 or claude-sonnet-4-6. Enterprise-only models need activation in Console.
