Summary

Adds documentation for claude-max-api-proxy, a community tool that lets users expose their Claude Max/Pro subscription as an OpenAI-compatible API endpoint.

Why This Matters

Approach Cost
Anthropic API (Opus) ~$15/M input, $75/M output tokens
Claude Max subscription $200/month flat, unlimited

Users with Claude Max subscriptions can save significant money by using this proxy with OpenAI-compatible tools instead of paying per-token API costs.

What's Added

  • New docs page: docs/providers/claude-max-api-proxy.md
  • Updated providers index with "Community tools" section

How It Works

App → claude-max-api-proxy → Claude Code CLI → Anthropic
    (OpenAI format)         (converts format)    (subscription)
