Send Claude Code telemetry to Agent Authority

Claude Code and Claude Cowork emit OpenTelemetry usage data — tokens, cost, and sessions per user. Point them at your gateway's …/claude ingest endpoint to populate the LLM Usage tab in Analytics.

Claude Code

Add the telemetry block to Claude Code's managed settings. Because managed settings apply to every user on a machine, shipping this file through your device-management tooling turns telemetry on for the whole organization automatically — no per-developer setup.

{
  "env": {
    "CLAUDE_CODE_ENABLE_TELEMETRY": "1",
    "OTEL_METRICS_EXPORTER": "otlp",
    "OTEL_LOGS_EXPORTER": "otlp",
    "OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_PROTOCOL": "http/protobuf",
    "OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_ENDPOINT": "<endpoint>/claude",
    "OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_HEADERS": "Authorization=Bearer <token>"
  }
}

Replace <endpoint> with the OTLP endpoint shown when you created the ingest key (for example, https://telemetry.your-gateway-host/api/v1/telemetry) and <token> with the saai_ingest_… key.
