Dot has no way to directly interact with a local desktop app?

AI summary

A user reported difficulties with Dot, stating that it cannot directly interact with local desktop applications despite documentation implying this is a supported feature. The user noted that Dot can interact with cloud_thread tasks but not traditional local tasks, highlighting a distinction in configuration and permissions. Dot's inability to list, read, message, or create local tasks contradicts its advertised capabilities. Attempts to use third-party tools or the codex CLI for remote interaction were also unsuccessful due to Dot's insistence on delegation.
