# Bug Summary

The **Local Image Optimizer** add-on does not appear in Local’s **Add-ons** tab when other add-ons are installed.

# Steps to reproduce

1. Install Local (version 9.2.4).
2. Place the `local-addon-image-optimizer` folder in `/Users/luke_1234/Library/Application Support/Local/addons` .
3. Verify that `enabled-addons.json` contains `"@getflywheel/local-addon-image-optimizer": true` .
4. Install other add-ons (Cloud Backups v2.1.3, Instant Reload v1.1.4, Notes v1.2.2, Xdebug + VS Code v1.0.9) in the same folder.
5. Restart Local and open the **Add-ons** tab — **Image Optimizer** is missing.

**Notes:**

- A clean install (removing and re-cloning the add-on) does not resolve the issue.
- The add-on appears correctly when it is the only one in the `addons` folder, but disappears when other add-ons are present.

@laurievitas Are you running Local 9.2.5? This should no longer be an issue in the latest version.

Run ‘check for updates’ or download the new version here if you’re on an older one:
