# Anthropic
|
|
|
|
To work with Anthropic's models, you need to provide your
|
|
[Anthropic API key](https://docs.anthropic.com/claude/reference/getting-started-with-the-api)
|
|
either in the `ANTHROPIC_API_KEY` environment variable or
|
|
via the `--anthropic-api-key` command line switch.
|
|
|
|
Aider has some built in shortcuts for the most popular Anthropic models and
|
|
has been tested and benchmarked to work well with them:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
python -m pip install -U aider-chat
|
|
|
|
export ANTHROPIC_API_KEY=<key> # Mac/Linux
|
|
setx ANTHROPIC_API_KEY <key> # Windows, restart shell after setx
|
|
|
|
# Aider uses Claude 3.5 Sonnet by default (or use --sonnet)
|
|
aider
|
|
|
|
# Claude 3 Opus
|
|
aider --opus
|
|
|
|
# List models available from Anthropic
|
|
aider --list-models anthropic/
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
{: .tip }
|
|
Anthropic has very low rate limits.
|
|
You can access all the Anthropic models via
|
|
[OpenRouter](openrouter.md)
|
|
or [Google Vertex AI](vertex.md)
|
|
with more generous rate limits.
|
|
|
|
You can use `aider --model <model-name>` to use any other Anthropic model.
|
|
For example, if you want to use a specific version of Opus
|
|
you could do `aider --model claude-3-opus-20240229`.
