# Claude Code CLI

The recommended way to use Tensorix models with Claude Code.

## Recommended Models

We recommend these models for Claude Code:

| Model                    | Model ID               | Best For                                                                                            |
| ------------------------ | ---------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **GLM-4.7**              | `z-ai/glm-4.7`         | Tool calling & functions ([official docs](https://docs.z.ai/scenario-example/develop-tools/claude)) |
| **MiniMax-M2** (Default) | `minimax/minimax-m2`   | General coding, reasoning                                                                           |
| **MiniMax-M2.1**         | `minimax/minimax-m2.1` | Latest capabilities                                                                                 |

## Install Claude Code

Refer to the [Claude Code documentation](https://docs.anthropic.com/claude-code) for installation.

## Configure Tensorix API

{% hint style="warning" %}
**Important:** Clear existing Anthropic environment variables before configuration to avoid conflicts:

* `ANTHROPIC_AUTH_TOKEN`
* `ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL`
  {% endhint %}

1. Edit or create the Claude Code configuration file at `~/.claude/settings.json`:

```json
{
  "env": {
    "ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL": "https://api.tensorix.ai/anthropic",
    "ANTHROPIC_AUTH_TOKEN": "<YOUR_TENSORIX_API_KEY>",
    "ANTHROPIC_MODEL": "minimax/minimax-m2",
    "ANTHROPIC_SMALL_FAST_MODEL": "minimax/minimax-m2",
    "API_TIMEOUT_MS": "3000000",
    "CLAUDE_CODE_DISABLE_NONESSENTIAL_TRAFFIC": "1"
  }
}
```

2. Navigate to your working directory and run `claude` in the terminal.
3. Select **Trust This Folder** when prompted.
4. Start coding with Tensorix!

## Using Different Models

Update `ANTHROPIC_MODEL` to switch models.

### MiniMax-M2 (Default)

```json
{
  "env": {
    "ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL": "https://api.tensorix.ai/anthropic",
    "ANTHROPIC_AUTH_TOKEN": "<YOUR_TENSORIX_API_KEY>",
    "ANTHROPIC_MODEL": "minimax/minimax-m2",
    "ANTHROPIC_SMALL_FAST_MODEL": "minimax/minimax-m2",
    "API_TIMEOUT_MS": "3000000",
    "CLAUDE_CODE_DISABLE_NONESSENTIAL_TRAFFIC": "1"
  }
}
```

### MiniMax-M2.1

```json
{
  "env": {
    "ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL": "https://api.tensorix.ai/anthropic",
    "ANTHROPIC_AUTH_TOKEN": "<YOUR_TENSORIX_API_KEY>",
    "ANTHROPIC_MODEL": "minimax/minimax-m2.1",
    "ANTHROPIC_SMALL_FAST_MODEL": "minimax/minimax-m2.1",
    "API_TIMEOUT_MS": "3000000",
    "CLAUDE_CODE_DISABLE_NONESSENTIAL_TRAFFIC": "1"
  }
}
```

### GLM-4.7

Best for tool calling and function support. See [official GLM Claude Code docs](https://docs.z.ai/scenario-example/develop-tools/claude).

```json
{
  "env": {
    "ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL": "https://api.tensorix.ai/anthropic",
    "ANTHROPIC_AUTH_TOKEN": "<YOUR_TENSORIX_API_KEY>",
    "ANTHROPIC_MODEL": "z-ai/glm-4.7",
    "ANTHROPIC_SMALL_FAST_MODEL": "z-ai/glm-4.7",
    "API_TIMEOUT_MS": "3000000",
    "CLAUDE_CODE_DISABLE_NONESSENTIAL_TRAFFIC": "1"
  }
}
```
