FAQs

Can Claude Desktop access local files?

Yes! Claude Desktop can access local files on your computer when you grant permission.

With local file access, you can analyze reports, process spreadsheets, and review documents while maintaining complete data privacy.

Can Claude Desktop work offline?

Claude Desktop requires an internet connection for the main Claude AI models. However, when integrated with a local MCP server running local LLMs (like Ollama), you can create hybrid workflows where certain tasks run entirely offline on your infrastructure, while leveraging cloud capabilities when needed.

Can Claude Desktop use local LLM?

Absolutely! Through the Model Context Protocol and integration with Ollama or other local model servers, Claude Desktop can work alongside your on-premise AI models.
