The wizard can run `claude setup-token` on the gateway host (or you run it yourself), then stores the token as an auth profile for the **anthropic** provider. That profile is used for model calls the same way an API key or OAuth profile would be. If you already ran `claude setup-token`, pick **Anthropic token (paste setup-token)** and paste it. More detail: [OAuth](/concepts/oauth). +### Do you support Claude subscription auth (Claude Code OAuth)? + +Yes. Clawdbot can **reuse Claude Code CLI credentials** (OAuth) and also supports **setup-token**. If you have a Claude subscription, we recommend **setup-token** on the gateway host for the most reliable long‑running setup (requires Claude Pro/Max + the `claude` CLI). OAuth reuse is supported, but avoid logging in separately via Clawdbot and Claude Code to prevent token conflicts. See [Anthropic](/providers/anthropic) and [OAuth](/concepts/oauth). + ### How does Codex auth work? Clawdbot supports **OpenAI Code (Codex)** via OAuth or by reusing your Codex CLI login (`~/.codex/auth.json`). The wizard can import the CLI login or run the OAuth flow and will set the default model to `openai-codex/gpt-5.2` when appropriate. See [Model providers](/concepts/model-providers) and [Wizard](/start/wizard).
