StepFun opens Step-Cookbook repository with Claude Code setup scripts
StepFun launched the Step-Cookbook GitHub repository to collect practical examples, code, and scripts for its models. It currently includes Bash and PowerShell scripts to configure Claude Code with StepFun, with more cases planned.

StepFun opened a new GitHub repository, Step-Cookbook, to organize practical examples, sample code, and helper scripts for using StepFun models. The repository currently contains Claude Key Setup scripts for configuring Claude Code with StepFun, provided in Bash and PowerShell with Chinese and English instructions. Planned content includes getting-started examples, scenario practices, implementation tips, and tool scripts, organized by case with shared assets in root directories.
The repository is structured to support Jupyter Notebooks, code files, and Markdown tutorials. It defines a directory layout where case-specific code, images, and data are kept together, while shared resources go into root-level assets/ or data/ directories. Scripts for environment setup, data conversion, and batch processing are placed under scripts/, with single-file tools directly in scripts/ and multi-file or multi-OS tools in subdirectories. The README emphasizes that API keys should be provided via environment variables or local configuration, not committed to the repository.
Developers outside China who want to use StepFun models now have a public, structured starting point for integration examples and tooling, reducing the effort to evaluate and adopt StepFun's API. The inclusion of Claude Code setup scripts specifically lowers the barrier for developers already using Anthropic's coding assistant to switch or add StepFun as a backend.
For StepFun, the repository serves as developer enablement and documentation, which can increase API adoption. For developers, it provides a centralized resource for learning and reusing StepFun model usage patterns, though the current value is limited to the Claude Code configuration scripts until more cases are added.
The repository currently contains only the Claude Key Setup scripts; the README states that cookbook cases are 'to be organized and included.' A verifiable next signal is whether StepFun adds actual task-based examples (e.g., document processing, information extraction) and whether the repository gains community contributions or stars, indicating developer traction.
