I’m exploring a Claude Cowork setup that uses a local LLM or third-party inference backend, and I’m trying to confirm one thing: does Dispatch still work with that kind of setup?
Has anyone here used Dispatch or remote phone-to-desktop access with Cowork pointed at Ollama, LM Studio, OpenRouter, or another local or third-party backend?
I’d especially like to know:
• whether Dispatch still pairs and works normally
• whether a paid Claude plan is still required for Dispatch
• whether anything breaks when Cowork is not using Anthropic’s default hosted setup
If you’ve tested this yourself, I’d really appreciate a quick note on what worked and what didn’t.
