Anthropic API Base URL
Setting key
anthropic_api_base_url
Default
https://api.anthropic.com
What it does
Base URL for all Anthropic API requests made by the news gate classifier. The default points to Anthropic's production API. Override only if you are routing through a proxy, a self-hosted endpoint, or a test environment. Changing this incorrectly will break the news gate entirely.
When to change it
Almost never. Leave at the default unless you have a specific proxy or enterprise routing requirement.
Safe range
A valid HTTPS URL with no trailing slash.
Example
Default: https://api.anthropic.com. An enterprise proxy might use https://your-proxy.internal/anthropic.
