docs: explain how to actually get a CLAUDE_CODE_OAUTH_TOKEN#19
Merged
Conversation
Follow-up to the subscription-credential-check fix: the warning correctly
told users to "configure CLAUDE_CODE_OAUTH_TOKEN" but never explained how
to obtain one, leaving subscription-mode users stuck with no path
forward -- despite the feature being fully implemented and working once
that one env var is set.
Verified live: `claude setup-token` is a real, documented subcommand of
the official `@anthropic-ai/claude-code` CLI ("Set up a long-lived
authentication token (requires Claude subscription)", confirmed via
`npx @anthropic-ai/claude-code setup-token --help`). It runs on the
user's own machine (interactive browser login to their Claude Pro/Max/
Team account, with a manual URL/code fallback for headless/SSH use),
mints a token valid for 1 year, and instructs setting it as
CLAUDE_CODE_OAUTH_TOKEN -- exactly the env var CodeGraph's existing
claudeSubscriptionCredentialsAvailable() check already looks for.
No code change: the feature was already correct. This closes the actual
gap -- a user with a real Claude subscription had no way to discover the
one command that makes it work.
Changes:
- Settings page: the "no usable Claude Code login" warning now includes
the exact command (`npx @anthropic-ai/claude-code setup-token`) and a
concrete explanation of where the resulting token goes.
- DEPLOY.md: full 5-step walkthrough (run setup-token locally -> browser
login -> copy the 1-year token -> set CLAUDE_CODE_OAUTH_TOKEN on the
deployment -> redeploy) added to the Claude Agent SDK setup section.
Verification: full suite 232/232, tsc --noEmit clean, lint baseline
unchanged, next build clean.
