   🛑 Automated plugin check: needs changes

   Plugin: fpp-plugin-FauxLite
   Repo: https://github.com/GraphicHealer/fpp-plugin-FauxLite
   Owner: GraphicHealer
   Category: Messaging, Signage & Countdown

   @GraphicHealer found 3 issue(s) this must be fixed before the plugin can be listed:

   • 🛑 Blocker - exec-bit - scripts/fpp_install.sh is not executable - commit it +x (git update-index --chmod=+x)

   • 🛑 Blocker - exec-bit - scripts/fpp_uninstall.sh is not executable - commit it +x (git update-index --chmod=+x)

   • ⚠️ Best practice - no-restart-flag - registers command type(s) via commands/descriptions.json but doesn't request an fppd restart at every lifecycle point that needs one - install: scripts/fpp_install.sh present, no restart/reboot flag; uninstall: scripts/fpp_uninstall.sh present, no restart/reboot flag.

     • This plugin's code itself looks fine for FPP 10 - structurally safe to hot-load/unload without a restart there. The flag is still needed because pluginInfo.json's versions[] serves this exact branch/build to FPP majors before 10 too, which have no plugin load/unload feature at all - those installs still need a full fppd restart to pick up install/uninstall.
     • Add ( set +u; source "${FPPDIR:-/opt/fpp}/scripts/common" && setSetting restartFlag 1 ) || true to each script listed above (creating fpp_install.sh/fpp_uninstall.sh if missing - only fpp_upgrade.sh is optional, and only needs it if you already have one); only drop it once you split off a separate FPP 10+-only branch/sha in versions[]

   Push a fix to your repo, then comment /recheck here (no need to edit this issue) to re-run the scan. If you believe these checks are wrong and want a maintainer to look anyway, comment /submit instead.

   @GraphicHealer no blocking issues found. A maintainer will still review this by hand before it's added to pluginList.json.
