When to use it

An Anthropic API key and access to a Claude model are required.

Install

helm upgrade --install hermes-agent ./charts/hermes-agent \
  --namespace hermes-agent --create-namespace \
  -f charts/hermes-agent/values-anthropic.yaml \
  --set-string env.ANTHROPIC_API_KEY='<real-value>' --wait

When an example requires more than one credential, pass every listed value with --set-string or use extraEnvFrom to reference an existing Secret.

Adapt before deploying

Keep the provider set to anthropic and inject the Anthropic key through a Secret.
