You may have identified the problem. The original HC stack was ported to
LC and the client used the free OSS version of LC to access it. Sonoma, of
course, broke that. This is the recipe stack that I posted here, with
permission, 2 years ago. He's not a developer and didn't want to pay a
subscription for the single stack he uses daily. He's been collecting
recipes for 30 years.
So I made him a quick splash app that would let him access the stack. Since
the original was created and opened with LC I think changing the extension
isn't working. I've been looking up ways to clear the icon cache. I'll try
a few things.

I don't think this is related to the problem (above) you have. If you
have identified the document extension in the Standalone setting for
macOS and set an ics file of icons (or the appropriate sizes required by
Apple) than documents created by that app should display the icon. I'd
double check that the Docunmet extension and Document Type (if you're
using Types) in the setting match what the file is actually using. I've
had an extra character (sometime a space which is hard to see) in the
past that took me a bit to figure it out.
Unrelated, if you ever need more than one document type, below is some
code I run 'on standaloneSaved' to modify the plist to add additional
document types and icon sets to my macOS app.
put tMac64BuildFolder&tAppName&".app/Contents/Info.plist" into
tSrcFile -- overwrite original

if there is a file tSrcFile then
put revXMLCreateTreeFromFile(tSrcFile,true,true,false) into tTreeID

document types during build.</p><p>"&tTreeID&"</p>"
