Use Claude Code with your own model on Runpod: No Anthropic account required

If you've been using Claude Code with Anthropic's hosted models, you already know how powerful it is for AI-assisted development. But what if you could run the same workflow for a fraction of the cost, with complete control over the underlying model? In this guide, we'll walk you through connecting Claude Code to a self-hosted model running on Runpod using Ollama — no Anthropic API key required.

Faster GitHub Builds: Major Performance Improvements to Our Automated Integration

Runpod has significantly improved the performance and reliability of its automated GitHub integration by fixing a bottleneck in the container image upload pipeline that caused slow or timed-out builds. By rewriting key components of the registry image uploader and optimizing layer transfers, GitHub-triggered container builds now complete faster, more consistently, and with fewer deployment failures.
