Research direction
Open the existing Anthropic provider page and compare its current configuration examples with the requested custom endpoint guidance. Add YAML and legacy JSON examples using the /v1/ suffix, the API Token Sale example, and the stated independence disclaimer; done when the page covers all four requested points without changing transport code.
Written by the indexing model from the issue text.
Description
Problem
The Anthropic provider supports a custom apiBase, but the provider page only shows the default Anthropic-hosted configuration. Users of Anthropic-compatible Messages API endpoints do not currently have an example showing the required /v1/ suffix.
Proposed documentation change
Add a focused section to the existing Anthropic provider page that:
- explains that
provider: anthropiccan use a third-party Anthropic-compatible endpoint; - shows
apiBasein both YAML and legacy JSON; - uses API Token Sale as a concrete tested example; and
- clearly states that it is an independent provider, not affiliated with Anthropic or Continue.
This is documentation-only and uses Continue’s existing native Anthropic transport.
