When you finish, Voyager’s agent runs on your own Claude account, through Claude Code. This is part of step 2 of 5, Connect providers.
Before you start
  • A Claude plan that includes Claude Code, such as Pro or Max (see Claude’s plans), or an Anthropic API key. Claude Code can sign in with either.
  • Cost: nothing extra from Voyager. With a subscription, usage counts against your Claude plan’s own limits. With an API key, Anthropic bills you per use.
  • You don’t need to install anything yourself. If Claude Code isn’t on your computer, Voyager opens a terminal with the official installer ready to run. It doesn’t need Node or any other developer tools.
  • Prefer ChatGPT? See Connect ChatGPT. You can connect both.

Which model Voyager uses

Setup doesn’t ask you to pick a model. If Claude is connected, Voyager starts new chats on Claude Opus 5.5, even if you also connect ChatGPT or have a Voyager plan. To use something else, pick a different model in the chat box, or change the default in Settings → General, under Conversations → Model.

​
Check it worked

  • The Claude row on Connect providers shows a green check, and Continue is available.
  • After setup, Settings → Accounts lists Claude as signed in.
  • Your first chat opens on a Claude model.

​
If something went wrong

Click Retry in the terminal’s header. If it still fails, install Claude Code in your own terminal with the command above, run claude auth login, then click Refresh above the agent list.
Click Refresh above the agent list. Voyager re-checks Claude Code. If the row still doesn’t change, run claude auth login again and make sure you signed in with the Claude account that has your plan.
Claude Code is installed but something needs attention, for example an expired sign-in. The warning text says what. Usually clicking Sign in and signing in again fixes it.
No agent is ready yet. Finish signing in to Claude, connect ChatGPT, or use a Voyager plan (Voyager models and media).
