description: 'Semgrep Guardian supports two authentication methods: OAuth for Claude Code and API token for other coding agents.'
schemes:
- type: oauth2
  name: OAuth
  evidence: Claude Code uses Semgrep's hosted remote server and authenticates through OAuth, so developers don't need to install or run the Semgrep
    CLI.
- type: apiKey
  name: API token
  evidence: Each developer signs in with `semgrep login`, which opens a browser-based login flow.
