@round tartan where can i get my anthropic api key to set it manually?

#

Ok, i have the antrhopic api key. where in clawdbot.json do i have to put it?

The API key goes in the auth profile, not directly in the main config. Here are the easiest options:

Option 1: Use the built-in command (recommended)

clawdbot models auth add --provider anthropic
# It'll prompt for your API key and store it securely

Option 2: Environment variable
Add to your shell profile or ~/.clawdbot/clawdbot.json:

{
  "env": {
    "ANTHROPIC_API_KEY": "sk-ant-api03-xxx..."
  }
}
#

Option 3: Direct auth profile file
The key gets stored at ~/.clawdbot/auth/profiles.json:

{
  "profiles": {
    "anthropic:default": { "key": "sk-ant-api03-xxx...", "provider": "anthropic", "mode": "api_key" }
  }
}

Simplest fix — just run:

export ANTHROPIC_API_KEY=sk-ant-api03-xxx...

Then Clawdbot will pick it up automatically.
