Describe the feature

With the release of Claude 3 Opus, it advertises the best coding assistant performance available today. Would be nice to be able to use different APIs with Zed

Just playing with the free model it's very impressive

[jaanli]

Major +1 on this, would help switch from VS code :)

[liam-k]

Yes please! although I would probably rename this issue to "make custom assistant APIs possible". Because who knows what the next best LLM will be?

[elamien]

YES claude 3 opus has been unmatched in terms of context length!

[lessless]

I'm not going back to ChatGPT anytime soon, so Claude support is very desired feature

[windhorn]

I'm looking forward to Claude3's support!

Here's the best that's available now of how I'm coping: https://colab.research.google.com/github/jaanli/language-model-notebooks/blob/main/notebooks/getting-started.ipynb

Claude is available in Zed v0.136.0-pre.

[jaanli]

Yay! Thanks so much @JosephTLyons !!!

@as-cii - is there more documentation or a way to check whether Claude or GPT4o is set?

I can't figure out the way to add the ANTHROPIC_API_KEY command line variable.

Has anyone gotten Claude working in Zed with their API key?

[rafaelbiten]

Same here. I've been trying to set an open API key to work with GPT4o within Zed and I can't get it work. It keeps saying: Failed to connect to OpenAI API: The model 'gpt-4o' does not exist or you do not have access to it.

Hey @jaanli, you should be able to set it in your shell rc file or by launching zed via the command line:

ANTHROPIC_API_KEY=xyz zed /path/to/project

Make sure you set this in your settings.json:

"assistant": {
    "version": "1",
    "provider": {
      "name": "anthropic"
    }
  }

@rafaelbiten: it seems like you're misspelling gpt-4o (0 vs o)?

[rafaelbiten]

Sorry, I just misspelled that in my initial message. Do I have to setup the assistant in the settings.json file? I tried resetting the key a few times. Also, just want to confirm one thing. The instructions say:

Make sure your OpenAI account has credits.

Is that the case if we're subscribed to ChatGPT Plus? If it is, then that's my problem...
