TronCode API Usage Guide

Use Claude Code and other AI tools via the TronCode API endpoint — no direct access to Anthropic services required. Just set two environment variables, ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL and ANTHROPIC_AUTH_TOKEN, to get started.

ℹ️

TronCode API endpoint: https://openapi.troncode.cn
Before getting started, register and obtain an API Key at the TronCode Platform.

Windows Installation

Method 1: One-Click Install (Recommended)

Run the following command in PowerShell to automatically install Node.js and Claude Code:

curl -fsSL https://claude.ai/install.sh | bash

⚠️

This command requires access to the international internet. Make sure your network can reach claude.ai. If not, you may need a VPN or proxy.

Method 2: Manual Install

1

Install Node.js

Visit the Node.js download page, download the LTS version, and run the .msi installer.

2

Install Claude Code

Open PowerShell and run:

npm install -g @anthropic-ai/claude-code

⚠️

If you get an "execution policy" error, open PowerShell as Administrator and run: Set-ExecutionPolicy RemoteSigned, then type Y to confirm and retry the install.

3

Configure Environment Variables

Run in PowerShell (persistent — survives restarts):

[System.Environment]::SetEnvironmentVariable("ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL", "https://openapi.troncode.cn", "User")
[System.Environment]::SetEnvironmentVariable("ANTHROPIC_AUTH_TOKEN", "your-api-key", "User")

Or temporary (current session only):

$env:ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL = "https://openapi.troncode.cn"
$env:ANTHROPIC_AUTH_TOKEN = "your-api-key"
