# Enable AI models for Agent Mode
Enable the Anthropic Claude models required for groundcover Agent in a GCP BYOC deployment.
The groundcover Agent uses both **Anthropic Claude Sonnet 4.6** and **Anthropic Claude Haiku 4.5** models. To use it in a GCP BYOC deployment, enable both models in your BYOC project by repeating the steps below for each one.
1. In the GCP Console, open your BYOC project. Search for `Model Garden`, then open it.
2. Search for `Claude Sonnet 4.6`, then open the model page.
3. Click **Enable**.
4. Fill in the required details, then click **Next**.
5. For **Location**, select `global`.
6. Expand the **Terms and agreements** section, review it, then click **Agree**.
7. Repeat the same steps for `Claude Haiku 4.5`.
After both models show as enabled, groundcover Agent is ready to use in your BYOC environment.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.
Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:
```
GET https://docs.groundcover.com/collect-data/byoc/setup-byoc-with-gcp/enable-ai-models-for-agent-mode.md?ask=&goal=
```
`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.
Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
