Changes since last release

Upstream bump v1.14271.0 -> v1.15200.0 (2 patches + 1 build-script fix; all 52 apply)

• Version bump v1.14271.0 -> v1.15200.0, a full re-minify release. Routine for Linux: no new platform gate locks out a Linux feature, no new native modules, no new built-in MCP servers, and the Cowork RPC contract between Desktop and claude-cowork-service is byte-identical in both directions (same socket name, framing, 22 methods, 7 event types, spawn args). The six new IPC handlers (directMcpCallTool/directMcpListResources/directMcpReadResource, getCrForSession/getCrRefSummary, reportCommitHash) are renderer<->Electron-main only and never reach the daemon. Three things needed work.
• enable_local_agent_mode: rebased the yukonSilver (Cowork) gate bypass. Upstream renamed the support function hre() -> $oe() and added a leading var r,n; hoist between the opening { and the delegate chain (const A=j4r();if(A)...). Patch 1b's anchor regex required {const immediately, so it matched 0 times and the patch failed. The pattern now allows an optional var <ids>; after the brace; the Linux early-return is injected before the hoist (the vars stay declared but unused on the Linux path - harmless). All 25 sub-patches apply; all 15 forced GrowthBook flag IDs and all 12 merger override feature names are still present (3 new upstream flags, none gating a cowork/code/dispatch surface, so nothing new to force on).
• fix_enterprise_config_linux: tracked the renamed managed-config log. Upstream renamed the debug log "Enterprise config loaded: %o" -> "Managed config loaded: %o" and the loaded-variant redact argument is now a nested call (yXA(zJ(l)) vs the old single ZZA(o)). The debug->info promotion (which makes a successful non-empty enterprise load visible in main.log at the default level) matched 0 times and failed. Updated the string and loosened the arg pattern to match any non-{} call expression, so only the loaded case is promoted and the empty/"none" case stays at debug. The Linux /etc/claude-desktop/enterprise.json reader sub-patch was unaffected.
• Build-script fix: node-pty 1.2.0-beta.13 moved to a prebuilds/ layout. Upstream bumped node-pty (Electron devDep now 42.4.0) to a prebuild-style package that ships prebuilds/win32-x64/ and no build/Release/ directory. build-patched-tarball.sh rebuilds node-pty for Linux and drops the result into build/Release/pty.node (which node-pty's loader still checks first), but the cp failed because the destination directory no longer exists. Added mkdir -p for the asar-contents build/Release dir, mirroring what the unpacked path already did. node-pty + spawn-helper now rebuild and the package completes.
• Baselines re-validated and updated: CLAUDE_FEATURE_FLAGS.md (registry D_() -> z_(), merger PwA -> yDA, gate pR() -> HR(); 3 new flags noted), ION.md (96 MB / 747 JS / 973 files; config chunk Cjzc-_Hc -> QjesmIoF; vendor bundle now split per-lib), PLATFORM_GATE_BASELINE.md (darwin 73->76 / win32 124->125; one new darwin-only getExternalRelayConfig partner-extension relay classified NATIVE), and claude-cowork-service's COWORK_RPC_PROTOCOL.md (re-validated, no change). .electron-version stays 42.0.0 (the 42.4.0 is upstream's build-time devDep, used only for node-pty header matching; our shipped runtime is unchanged), so no .electron-shasums update.

Fix: missing GNOME/KDE dock icon - StartupWMClass did not match the real window class (#148)

• Every .desktop we ship now sets StartupWMClass=claude-desktop instead of claude. The dock/taskbar icon was missing on GNOME (Fedora, Wayland) and KDE Plasma 6.7 (#148) because the running window's real X11 WM_CLASS / Wayland app_id is claude-desktop, not claude - confirmed here with xprop/wmctrl. GNOME/KDE match a window to its installed .desktop entry by StartupWMClass first, so the mismatch meant no icon. The window id comes from Chromium's GetXdgAppId(), which reads the app's desktopName (claude-desktop.desktop, set by upstream in app.asar package.json) and ignores the renamed Electron binary / --class / argv[0] - so renaming the binary to claude never set the window class, contrary to the old build comments. Fixed across all packaging formats: AUR (PKGBUILD.template), the .deb build script (packaging/debian/build-deb.sh, the path CI actually ships), the static packaging/debian/claude.desktop, the RPM spec, the AppImage build script, the Nix package, and the launcher's runtime-generated AppImage .desktop.
• Corrected the misleading "Electron derives WM_CLASS from the binary basename" comments in those files and the launcher header to state the real source (desktopName). The binary rename and APP_ID="claude" (systemd scope / .desktop filename / cgroup portal identity) are unchanged - that is a separate identity signal and was already correct.
• Known limitation, not addressed here: per-profile instances (--create-profile) still all report claude-desktop for the same reason (the shared app.asar desktopName wins over the per-profile binary basename), so they don't yet get distinct dock icons. A per-profile desktopName/CHROME_DESKTOP override (the mechanism fix_quick_entry_app_id.nim already uses) is the follow-up. Launcher/packaging-only change; no patch or upstream-version bump.
• Builds on #154 by @noprogressinpleasure, which had the right diagnosis but covered only the static deb file (inert for CI releases) and the RPM spec.
