Unclear The finding does not say what usageMetricsEnabled controls or what replaces relaunchEnforcementHours.

What

The admin configuration schema is the list of settings an organisation can enforce. Claude Code bundles this schema and shares it with the desktop app. It adds five keys:

The key relaunchEnforcementHours is removed. coworkEgressAllowedHosts now fails closed to an empty list ([]). The documentation reference to requireFullVmSandbox is corrected to requireCoworkFullVmSandbox.

Why

Administrators get a way to take bypass permissions mode away entirely, and a way to set an outbound proxy through MDM. Any managed configuration that still sets relaunchEnforcementHours refers to a key the schema no longer contains.

What the documentation says
Since it was published

The entry above is what we published on the day. These lines were added later, as Anthropic's own pages caught up, and they sit beside the original rather than replacing it.

Added since A small documentation edit on Network proxy touched a line naming egressProxyUrl after this was published. In a macOS configuration profile the same key is a `<key>egressProxyUrl</key><string>http://proxy.example.com:8080</string>` pair in the `com.anthropic.claudefordesktop` payload, and on Windows it is a `REG_SZ` value named `egressProxyUrl`… third-party/claude-desktop/network-proxy see the edit
