An API key is not accepted. Failures carry the HTTP status, and 401 or 403 responses append a hint pointing at `claude login` and `ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL`.\n\n**Details**\n\n- The API base is `ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL` with trailing slashes stripped, falling back to the built-in Anthropic API URL.\n- These tools are only reachable from the setup and doctor wizards.\n\n**Evidence**\n\n`Self-hosted runner management is only available on the first-party Anthropic API provider.`\n\n- Area: Self-Hosted Runners\n- Names: `claude login`, `ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL`\n- Tier: You'll notice\n- Useful: 4\/5\n- Signal: 3\/5"}
