Domain 4Computer Use, Dispatch & Automation

macOS-Only Limitation

TL;DR

Computer Use cursor control — the ability for Claude to move your mouse and type on your keyboard — is currently available only on macOS.

Definition

Computer Use cursor control — the ability for Claude to move your mouse and type on your keyboard — is currently available only on macOS. Windows and Linux users cannot use this feature. Dispatch still works across platforms for sending text-based task instructions, but screen interaction requires a Mac host.

Exam Context

A trap may claim Dispatch on an iPhone can control the mouse on a Windows PC. It cannot — cursor control is macOS-only.
