Bizarre. Tried your test. I get the exact same non-working behavior as mine. No indication anywhere that it ran, no change to the gain in the module UI, and the script path disappears from the Scripts Manager. Yes the script file is executable (+x). I'm using 3.5.7 Stable on Ubuntu 20.04.

Are there any other constraints? Does the script file HAVE to be in my home directory, does it have to have a certain name? Do I have to save the job as a sequence? Anything? Just brainstorming - something major is missing here.
