# Quick Start: Using Claude Code Subscription
|
|
|
|
This guide shows you how to use your Claude.ai subscription with OpenClaw instead of paying for API calls.
|
|
|
|
## Why Use Claude Code Subscription?
|
|
|
|
- **No API costs**: Use your existing Claude Pro subscription
|
|
- **Same capabilities**: Full access to Claude Opus 4.6, Sonnet 4.5, and Haiku 4.5
|
|
- **Simple setup**: Just install the CLI and authenticate
|
|
- **All features**: Works with all OpenClaw channels and features
|
|
|
|
## Setup (5 minutes)
|
|
|
|
### Step 1: Install Claude Code CLI
|
|
|
|
Choose your preferred installation method:
|
|
|
|
**Option A: Install script (recommended)**
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
curl -fsSL https://claude.ai/install.sh | sh
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
**Option B: npm**
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
npm install -g @anthropic-ai/claude-code
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
**Option C: Homebrew (macOS)**
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
brew install anthropics/tap/claude
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Step 2: Authenticate
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
claude login
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
This will open your browser to authenticate with Claude.ai.
|
|
|
|
### Step 3: Configure OpenClaw
|
|
|
|
Run the interactive configuration wizard:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
openclaw configure --section model
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
When prompted:
|
|
|
|
1. Select **Anthropic**
|
|
2. Choose **Claude Code subscription (recommended)**
|
|
3. Select your preferred primary model (Sonnet recommended)
|
|
4. Optionally select fallback models
|
|
|
|
That's it! OpenClaw is now configured to use your subscription.
|
|
|
|
## Quick Test
|
|
|
|
Send a test message:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
openclaw message send "Hello! This message uses my Claude subscription."
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
You should see a response using your subscription instead of API calls.
|
|
|
|
## What's Next?
|
|
|
|
- **Set up channels**: Link WhatsApp, Telegram, or other messaging platforms
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
openclaw configure --section channels
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
- **Configure gateway**: Set up remote access
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
openclaw configure --section gateway
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
- **Check status**: View your configuration
|
|
```bash
|
|
openclaw models list
|
|
openclaw channels status
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Manual Configuration
|
|
|
|
If you prefer to edit the config file directly:
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
# ~/.openclaw/config.yaml
|
|
agents:
|
|
defaults:
|
|
# Register models (required)
|
|
models:
|
|
claude-cli/opus: {}
|
|
claude-cli/sonnet: {}
|
|
claude-cli/haiku: {}
|
|
|
|
# Set primary and fallbacks
|
|
model:
|
|
primary: claude-cli/sonnet
|
|
fallbacks:
|
|
- claude-cli/opus
|
|
- claude-cli/haiku
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Available Models
|
|
|
|
When using `claude-cli` provider:
|
|
|
|
| Model ID | Description | Best For |
|
|
| ------------------- | ----------------- | ----------------------- |
|
|
| `claude-cli/opus` | Claude Opus 4.6 | Complex tasks, analysis |
|
|
| `claude-cli/sonnet` | Claude Sonnet 4.5 | Balanced performance |
|
|
| `claude-cli/haiku` | Claude Haiku 4.5 | Fast, simple tasks |
|
|
|
|
## Switching Between Subscription and API
|
|
|
|
You can use both subscription and API models:
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
agents:
|
|
defaults:
|
|
# Register both CLI and API models
|
|
models:
|
|
claude-cli/opus: {}
|
|
claude-cli/sonnet: {}
|
|
anthropic/claude-opus-4-6: {}
|
|
|
|
model:
|
|
primary: claude-cli/sonnet # Use subscription first
|
|
fallbacks:
|
|
- anthropic/claude-opus-4-6 # Fall back to API if needed
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Troubleshooting
|
|
|
|
### "claude: command not found"
|
|
|
|
The CLI isn't installed or not in PATH. Reinstall:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
curl -fsSL https://claude.ai/install.sh | sh
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### "Not authenticated"
|
|
|
|
Run authentication again:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
claude login
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### "Command failed"
|
|
|
|
Check your Claude CLI status:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
claude whoami
|
|
claude --version
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Cost Comparison

|
|
- Sonnet 4.5: $15/million output tokens
|
|
