Claude Code + Luma Cloud

Direct connection needs Anthropic Messages compatibility, which is not a documented Luma API interface.

Check compatibility first

This client does not offer a verified direct Luma Cloud connection. Follow the alternatives below. SuperGPT desktop installation and sign-in are separate.

Before you start

  • For a direct Luma connection, choose a client that supports Chat Completions or Responses.

Set up Claude Code

  1. Understand the protocol

    Claude Code treats ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL as an Anthropic-format endpoint and sends Messages requests. Pointing that setting at an OpenAI-compatible base URL does not translate the request.

  2. Choose a direct alternative

    Use OpenCode, Aider, Cline, or another documented compatible client with a Luma API key. Keep your existing Claude Code login and configuration.

Check the connection

  1. There is no direct Claude Code acceptance test in this guide. Follow the setup and verification steps for the compatible client you choose.

For errors or a request that stops, see troubleshooting. A visible model list alone does not confirm that a chat or editing task can complete.

What to expect

  • Luma's documented API does not include an Anthropic /v1/messages endpoint. This page does not provide an ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL configuration.
  • A third-party protocol translator is a separate integration and requires its own authentication, tools, streaming, and usage validation.

Troubleshooting Claude Code

Changing ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL returns 404

Claude Code is still sending Anthropic Messages. An OpenAI-compatible Base URL cannot change that protocol. Restore only the endpoint override you added, retaining your original Claude configuration and login.

A Luma key is rejected as an Anthropic key

Do not replace your Anthropic credentials. Create a named Luma API key for a compatible client and follow that client's recipe. Paying for a Luma plan does not authenticate Claude Code to Anthropic.

A plugin or MCP server offers Luma access

An MCP tool connection is not a replacement for Claude Code's primary model provider. Treat an external translator as a separate integration; this guide does not claim its tools, billing or streaming have been validated.
