In your "info.rkt", define `racket-launcher-names` and
`racket-launcher-libraries`,
or `gracket-launcher-names` and `gracket-launcher-libraries` for a GUI app:
https://docs.racket-lang.org/raco/setup-info.html#(idx._(gentag._14._(lib._scribblings%2Fraco%2Fraco..scrbl)))

Note that this is handled by `raco setup`, not `raco pkg`, so you can do
this in an "info.rkt" file in any collection, not just at the top level
directory of the package. Here's an example "info.rkt" file from one of my
packages that uses `gracket-launcher-names`:
