docker-claude ba3730a24d feat(auth): support subscription login alongside API key

Make ANTHROPIC_API_KEY optional. Add CLAUDE_CODE_OAUTH_TOKEN pass-through
for headless token-based auth (claude setup-token). When neither is set,
Claude Code falls back to browser OAuth on port 54545. Add claude-config
named volume mounted at ~/.claude/ in both claude and webui services so
credentials persist across container runs. Pre-create ~/.claude/ in the
Dockerfile so the volume is initialised with correct ownership. Add
--service-ports to docker compose run calls to publish port 54545 during
CLI sessions.

Project Guidance

This file provides context and guidance for working with this project.

Project Overview

docker-claude runs Claude Code inside a hardened Docker environment with a Squid proxy sidecar. The goal is full host encapsulation: Claude cannot access the host filesystem or network. All egress is routed through an allowlist-enforcing proxy.

Architecture

Three containers managed by Docker Compose:

claude — Claude Code CLI (node:20-alpine), non-root (UID 1000), isolated to an internal-only Docker network
webui — Claude Code as a browser terminal via ttyd (node:20-alpine), non-root (UID 1000), same network isolation, basic auth required
proxy — Squid forward proxy (alpine:3.21), squid user, bridges the internal network to the internet with an egress allowlist

Key Docker network property: claude-internal has internal: true, meaning Docker adds no default gateway. The claude and webui containers physically cannot reach the internet without going through the proxy container.

The webui service reuses claude/Dockerfile. Its entrypoint (claude/webui-entrypoint.sh) starts ttyd --credential user:pass claude instead of claude directly.

Auth supports three modes (checked at startup by claude.sh):

ANTHROPIC_API_KEY — API key
CLAUDE_CODE_OAUTH_TOKEN — 1-year token from claude setup-token (headless-friendly)
Neither set — Claude Code prompts for browser login on first run; port 54545 is published for the OAuth callback. Credentials persist in the claude-config named volume.

Development Workflow

chmod +x claude.sh
cp .env.example .env      # set ANTHROPIC_API_KEY (and WEBUI_PASSWORD for web mode)
./claude.sh start         # build + start proxy + launch Claude interactively (CLI)
./claude.sh web           # build + start proxy + webui (browser terminal on :7681)
./claude.sh update        # rebuild images (no cache) after upstream updates

Coding Standards

Shell scripts use set -euo pipefail
Dockerfiles use Alpine (node:20-alpine, alpine:3.21) for minimal attack surface
Alpine packages use apk add --no-cache; no apt cache cleanup layer needed
No capabilities granted; no-new-privileges on all containers
.env is never committed (enforced by .gitignore and .dockerignore)
Commit messages follow Angular format: type(scope): summary

Extending the Egress Allowlist

Add domains to proxy/squid.conf under the allowed_sites ACL, then rebuild:

docker compose -p claude-secure build proxy
./claude.sh stop && ./claude.sh start

Environment Persistence

This sandbox has a persistent environment file at /etc/sandbox-persistent.sh.

This file is automatically sourced in all shell contexts:

Non-interactive shells: via BASH_ENV=/etc/sandbox-persistent.sh
Login shells: via /etc/profile.d/sandbox-persistent.sh
Interactive shells: via /etc/bash.bashrc and ~/.bashrc

Critical: Shell Completions Must NOT Be in the Persistent Environment File

NEVER add shell completion scripts to /etc/sandbox-persistent.sh.

Shell completion scripts will completely break the bash tool when sourced via the persistent environment file.

Network access

There is a firewall in place to restrict outbound network access. If you need http/https access to an external service, request it by running:

sbx policy allow network [domain]

Git Authentication

The sandbox proxy handles GitHub authentication automatically by injecting credentials for HTTPS Git operations.

Additional Notes

Always read relevant files before making changes
Run tests after making modifications
Follow the existing code structure and patterns
You have sudo permissions, so you can install necessary packages
npm, pip and uv are already available for package management
