Claude Desktop code-split layout mapped: 44 lazy-loaded chunks catalogued in free PDF

A maintainer of claude-desktop-debian, a project repackaging Anthropic's Linux .deb, discovered that release 1.19367.0 split the Electron main process into a 700-byte stub, a 7.7 MB core chunk, and 44 lazy-loaded satellite chunks. The change broke the build, prompting a fix (PR #793) and a full inventory of the new layout, published as a free 11-page PDF.

The maintainer of claude-desktop-debian (which repackages Anthropic's official Linux .deb into RPM/AppImage/Nix/AUR) found that upstream release 1.19367.0 replaced the previous single 15 MB minified index.js with a code-split architecture: a 700-byte stub, one 7.7 MB core chunk that always loads, and 44 lazy-loaded satellite chunks. The build broke because patches were hardcoded to the old path. After fixing it (PR #793), the maintainer catalogued all 44 chunks and wrote up the findings in a free 11-page PDF.
