 title: Claude Code
 ---

+Claude Code is Anthropic's agentic coding tool that can read, modify, and execute code in your working directory. 
+
+Open models can be used with Claude Code through Ollama's Anthropic-compatible API, enabling you to use models such as `glm-4.7`, `qwen3-coder`, `gpt-oss`.

 ## Usage with Ollama

+### Quick setup
+
+```shell
+ollama launch claude
+```
+
+To configure without launching:
+
+```shell
+ollama launch claude --config
+```
+
+### Manual setup
+
 Claude Code connects to Ollama using the Anthropic-compatible API.

 1. Set the environment variables:

 ```shell
+export ANTHROPIC_AUTH_TOKEN=ollama
+export ANTHROPIC_API_KEY=""
 export ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL=http://localhost:11434
-export ANTHROPIC_API_KEY=ollama
 ```

 2. Run Claude Code with an Ollama model:

 ```shell
-claude --model qwen3-coder
+claude --model gpt-oss:20b
 ```

 Or run with environment variables inline:

 ```shell
-ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL=http://localhost:11434 ANTHROPIC_API_KEY=ollama claude --model qwen3-coder
+ANTHROPIC_AUTH_TOKEN=ollama ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL=http://localhost:11434 ANTHROPIC_API_KEY="" claude --model qwen3-coder 
 ```

-## Connecting to ollama.com
-
-1. Create an [API key](https://ollama.com/settings/keys) on ollama.com
-2. Set the environment variables:
-
-```shell
-export ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL=https://ollama.com
-export ANTHROPIC_API_KEY=<your-api-key>
-```
-
-3. Run Claude Code with a cloud model:
-
-```shell
-claude --model glm-4.7:cloud
-```
+**Note:** Claude Code requires a large context window. We recommend at least 64k tokens. See the [context length documentation](/context-length) for how to adjust context length in Ollama.

 ## Recommended Models

-### Cloud models
- `glm-4.7:cloud` - High-performance cloud model
- `minimax-m2.1:cloud` - Fast cloud model
- `qwen3-coder:480b` - Large coding model
+- `qwen3-coder` 
+- `glm-4.7`
+- `gpt-oss:20b`
+- `gpt-oss:120b`
+
+Cloud models are also available at [ollama.com/search?c=cloud](https://ollama.com/search?c=cloud).

-### Local models
- `qwen3-coder` - Excellent for coding tasks
- `gpt-oss:20b` - Strong general-purpose model
