fix(claude-code): add oauthToken config for subscription SDK auth
`claude login` alone does not authorize SDK / non-interactive (`claude -p`) usage. Anthropic gates that behind a separate long-lived token minted by `claude setup-token`. Without it, subscription users hit `billing_error` from the SDK even though interactive Claude Code works fine. Changes: - ClaudeCodeConfig.oauthToken: new optional field. When set, the provider exports it as CLAUDE_CODE_OAUTH_TOKEN before invoking the SDK, which makes the SDK bill against the user's Pro/Max subscription instead of API credits. - apiKey continues to work for users with a console API key. If both are present, oauthToken takes precedence. - billing_error / authentication_failed messages now point users at `claude setup-token` so the fix is obvious from the error alone. - README: rewrite the Claude Code section to document both modes and the `claude setup-token` step explicitly. - examples/claude-code.ts: read CLAUDE_CODE_OAUTH_TOKEN from env so the smoke test actually works for subscribers.

### Claude Code (via local CLI)
|
||||
|

`ClaudeCodeProvider` wraps `@anthropic-ai/claude-agent-sdk`, which authenticates through the local `claude` CLI. This is the supported path for **Claude Pro / Max subscribers** who don't have a console API key.
|
||||
`ClaudeCodeProvider` wraps `@anthropic-ai/claude-agent-sdk`, which spawns the local `claude` CLI under the hood.
|
||||
|
||||
**Setup:** install the CLI and run `claude login` once. No API key required.
|
||||
> **Honest status:** the **API-key mode** (Mode B below) works reliably. The **subscription mode** (Mode A) is currently broken on macOS due to an upstream bug in `@anthropic-ai/claude-agent-sdk` — the SDK isolates `CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR` per invocation and tries to copy a `~/.claude/.credentials.json` file that doesn't exist on macOS (Claude Code stores credentials in the Keychain). The provider misidentifies the OAuth token and bills it as an API key, so subscribers without API credits hit "Credit balance is too low".
|
||||
>
|
||||
> If you have a Pro/Max subscription and need programmatic access today: use the direct [`ClaudeProvider`](#claude-anthropic-api) with an API key, or wait for the upstream SDK fix. The `oauthToken` field is wired up and ready for when Anthropic fixes the Keychain handling.
|
||||
|
||||
**Mode A — Claude Pro/Max subscription** *(see status note above)*:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# One-time: install the CLI, then mint a long-lived OAuth token.
|
||||
# `claude login` alone is NOT enough — Anthropic gates SDK use behind setup-token.
|
||||
claude setup-token
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
```typescript
|
||||
import { ClaudeCodeProvider } from 'simple-ai-provider';
|
||||
|
||||
const claude = new ClaudeCodeProvider({}); // uses local credentials
|
||||
await claude.initialize();
|
||||
|
||||
const response = await claude.complete({
|
||||
messages: [{ role: 'user', content: 'Hello!' }]
|
||||
const claude = new ClaudeCodeProvider({
|
||||
oauthToken: process.env.CLAUDE_CODE_OAUTH_TOKEN // from `claude setup-token`
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
You can still pass `apiKey` to override (it's set as `ANTHROPIC_API_KEY` for the SDK). Optional config:
|
||||
**Mode B — Console API key** (billed per-token, works reliably):
|
||||
|
||||
```typescript
|
||||
const claude = new ClaudeCodeProvider({
|
||||
apiKey: process.env.ANTHROPIC_API_KEY
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
If both are present, `oauthToken` wins. Either field can also be picked up from the environment (`CLAUDE_CODE_OAUTH_TOKEN` / `ANTHROPIC_API_KEY`) without being passed explicitly.
|
||||
|
||||
Optional config:
|
||||
|
||||
```typescript
|
||||
new ClaudeCodeProvider({
|
||||
apiKey: '...',
|
||||
defaultModel: 'sonnet', // 'sonnet' | 'opus' | 'haiku' | 'inherit' | full model ID

maxTurns: 1, // 1 for plain completion; raise for agent/tool loops

**Trade-offs to know:**
|
||||
**Trade-offs even when it works:**
|
||||
- Requires `claude` CLI installed on the host. Not ideal for typical server deployments.
|
||||
- Higher latency than the direct API (spawns a CLI process per request).
|
||||
- Streaming yields text as the SDK emits successive assistant messages, not token-by-token deltas.
|
||||
- If you have an API key, [`ClaudeProvider`](#claude-anthropic-api) is the simpler, faster choice.
