# Claude's browser is wherever the machine is

Claude computer use opens pages from the computer it was given. On a cloud VM, set a residential or mobile exit IP in the ship-to or catalog country.

Claude computer use opens pages from the computer it was given. In the cloud, that computer's IP is the datacenter. A store that will not ship to that country, or that shows the wrong catalog, is reacting to that IP.

## The command

```sh
npx aluvia-cli setup
aluvia geos
aluvia proxy-on --geo US
```

Replace `US` with the ship-to or catalog country. Sticky sessions last up to 30 minutes.

## The problem

Support material for Claude computer use assumes a local desktop. It does not give the agent a country when the computer is a cloud VM in the wrong place for the shop.

## The solution

On that machine, `npx aluvia-cli setup`, then `aluvia proxy-on --geo US` — replace `US` with the ship-to or catalog country. Sticky sessions last up to 30 minutes, so a checkout that spans a few pages can keep the same country IP.

## What this does not do

Anthropic's model-region and API availability are outside this page. If Claude the model is refused in a data center, a browser exit IP will not lift that. Do not use Aluvia to pass a normal login wall.
