Default BENCH_PROVIDER=claude_code for Bench self-governance#7
Merged
Conversation
Sets BENCH_PROVIDER=claude_code in the project's .claude/settings.json env block so Bench governs its own repo through each contributor's Claude Code subscription instead of requiring a separate ANTHROPIC_API_KEY. Bench only runs inside Claude Code (a PreToolUse hook), so subscription auth is always present. The PreToolUse hook config itself is unchanged. Overridable per contributor: set BENCH_PROVIDER in .claude/settings.local.json (local settings load after project and win). Takes effect on a fresh Claude Code session, since env is applied at startup. Ledger files carry this session's fail-open governance entries (no provider key was set during the edit), committed per the ledger-is-source policy.

Sets
BENCH_PROVIDER=claude_codein the project's.claude/settings.jsonenvblock, making the Claude Code subscription the default provider when Bench governs its own repo.Why
Bench only runs inside Claude Code (a PreToolUse hook), so every contributor already has subscription auth available. Defaulting to
claude_codemeans contributors govern the Bench repo through their existing subscription with no separateANTHROPIC_API_KEY. Dogfoods the provider added in #6.Details
envblock is added.BENCH_PROVIDERin.claude/settings.local.json(gitignored; local settings load after project and win) to use a different provider or your own key.envis applied at startup, so a restart is needed to pick it up.claude -pcalls, so edits are slower than the direct-API path.
