Is this Claude API relay authentic?
Clodex checks Claude through Anthropic thinking signatures plus additional detectors. Free, no signup, no API-key retention.
Thinking signature
Anthropic server-side signature is the strongest Claude authenticity signal.
Protocol baseline
Checks message IDs, tool use, stream/non-stream consistency, and usage.
Shareable report
After the check you get a permanent HTML URL and JPG report.
FAQ
What is thinking signature?
It is like an Anthropic server stamp on Claude thinking blocks. A relay should not be able to create it by itself.
The detector checks signature presence, shape, and length in extended/adaptive thinking responses and treats it as a key signal.
Does Clodex store my API key?
No. The key is used during the job and then removed from memory. Reports keep only a masked form.
The key is not serialized into report JSON and should not reach persistent storage. This can be audited in the open code.
