My KitchenAid dishwasher (KUDR24SEwh1) won't accept more than a drop or 2 of rinse-aid these days. The fill window is nearly dark (indicating that there is rinse-aid in that compartment).

I've tried using a paperclip to poke around the fill hole, but there's no obvious (or accessible) clog.

Suggestions?

It is not a matter of being clogged. Your dispenser is broken. It is electronically activated from behind, as seen in the picture below. You only have to remove the outer door panel to replace the dispenser, which comes as a modular unit. If you don't have access to parts, you can click the graphic below to order.
