Steps to reproduce the issue

Running latest OS and Supervisor > Findings
Known issue: Multiple forum reports of local add-ons not being detected
Community thread with 50+ replies

Common problem with no universal solution

Works for some users, not for others

Directory confusion:
Documentation mentions /addons/ (maps to /config/addons/ via Samba)

Some users report /addons/local/ works

Others report /config/addons/ should work

Behavior is inconsistent

What we tested:
/config/addons/myapp/ — not detected

/config/addons/local/myapp/ — not detected

/addons/local/myapp/ — not detected

Local git repository — not detected

Supervisor logs:
No scanning of /config/addons/

No scanning of /addons/local/

No errors (because it never attempts to scan)

Only git repository updates from /data/addons/git/*

Anything in the Supervisor logs that might be useful for us?

No error in logs

Same here. I see /addons
I create /addons/local/myApp/

Not detected

Also in File editor, there is no addons folder visible, despite its there in ssh & terminal

Oer locations mentioned are /mnt/data/supervisor
But there is nothing in /mnt

Try /addons/myapp/ and run "Check for updates" afterwards. This works for me.
