What's Wrong?
When sending any message in the Dispatch tab (both from the Claude mobile app and from the Dispatch tab in Claude Desktop), the message shows as "Read" and a typing indicator appears, but no response ever comes back.
Regular Claude Code conversations work fine — only Dispatch is broken.
Steps to reproduce:
- Open Dispatch tab in Claude mobile app or Claude Desktop
- Send any message (e.g. "How's the health of this computer?")
- Message shows "Read" checkmark and typing indicator appears
- No response is ever delivered — the indicator just stays indefinitely
What Should Happen?
Dispatch should respond to messages sent from mobile and desktop, just like regular Claude Code conversations.
