Wire your Claude Code key

The 5-minute setup that earns the 30% platform discount.

1. Get a key

Sign in to console.anthropic.com under your Claude Code Max subscription. Create a key scoped to API access. Copy it (you won't see it again).

2. Paste it into ChannelForge

Open Settings → Personal API keys → Add a key. Pick provider Anthropic, paste the secret, optionally label it ("Claude Code Max"), choose scope user (just you) or workspace (shared with workspace members).

3. Flip workflow steps to BYOK

In any workflow YAML, mark the BYOK-eligible steps:

- name: write_script
  action: script.generate
  useUserKey: true   # <- here
  params: { ... }

Save the workflow. The next run will route through your key, the run view will show a "Powered by your Claude Code" badge, and the step row's used_user_key=1 increments your eligibility counter.

4. Wait for the eligibility window

Once you hit 20 plus BYOK script.generate runs in 30 days with at least 60% ratio, the discount auto-applies. The /billing tab shows the live status.

5. (Optional) Rotate

If you rotate the upstream key in Anthropic, delete the old row and add a new one. Workflow steps keep running with the new key as soon as the row is enabled.
