Summary
Channels currently require claude.ai login. Users on Vertex AI (or Bedrock/API key) auth cannot use channels at all.
Use case
I use Claude Code via Vertex AI (authMethod: "third_party", apiProvider: "vertex") and would like to use channels (Telegram, Discord, custom webhooks) for remote interaction with my sessions.
Current behavior
Channels require authMethod: "claude_ai". No error or workaround is provided for third-party auth users.
Requested behavior
Support channels with Vertex AI, Bedrock, and API key authentication methods.
