ModLens DSH plugin questions
What is the ModLens DSH plugin?
ModLens is a project included in the current DSH plugin snapshot. This page organizes repository metadata and reviewed notes, but you should still inspect the upstream repository before running it.
How do I install the ModLens DSH plugin?
The page shows the install command captured from the source record. Copying does not run it, so confirm the package, profile, and version against upstream documentation first.
Which DSH profile does ModLens use?
The snapshot records web as the ModLens profile. DSH conventions can change quickly, so verify the manifest and README before installation.
Is ModLens compatible with the current DSH release?
The source data does not include a verified compatibility matrix. Check recent commits, releases, and DSH breaking changes, then test in a profile you can roll back.
What should I do if ModLens fails to load?
Check the install command, selected profile, dependency logs, and Cordis startup output first. Keep the exact error string, then compare it with this site's fix pages and upstream issues.
