Checklist

• The directory name matches the part of id after the / in plugin.toml exactly.
• It ships plugin.toml, README.md, thumbnail.webp, and translations/en.json.
• README.md follows the
  README template, documents
  every entry id and dependency, and includes exact panel IPC commands and launcher prefixes where applicable.
• I created thumbnail.webp with the thumbnail generator.
• version follows semver and is bumped in this PR; plugin_api is the oldest API level this plugin requires.
• Every non-English translation in this PR uses a locale supported by Noctalia core, and I can read, write, and
  understand that language well enough to review and maintain it (no unreviewed machine/LLM translations).
• I did not edit catalog.toml; CI generates it.
• This PR touches exactly one plugin directory.

Code review attestation

Plugins run as trusted, unsandboxed Luau in the user's session. Confirm:

• The code is readable and not obfuscated, minified, or generated.
• It does not download and execute remote code.
• Every network call, filesystem write, and spawned process is something the description above accounts for.
• I have the right to publish this code under the license declared in plugin.toml.

out of curiosity, why was this marked as a draft?

is it something that i need to change? are we just waiting for approval from @CSY2569 or will they need to make changes afterwards as well?

[CSY2569]

Thanks for the PR, and sorry for the slow reply — the bot CCs me as the plugin author, but I do not have merge rights in this repo, so a maintainer will still need to review and merge.

This looks good and is a clean superset of #248 (hide battery icon), so I would suggest closing #248 in favor of this one.

One gap: this only updates translations/en.json. The plugin also ships Simplified Chinese (translations/zh-Hans.json), so the two new settings (show_device_name, battery_display + its option labels) will render raw keys for Chinese users. I will add the zh-Hans entries myself as a follow-up, so no action needed from you on that.

Re: your draft question — the draft status is set on the PR itself, not something I control. Once it is marked ready for review, a maintainer can pick it up. From my side as the plugin author, this looks good to merge (modulo the translation gap above).

[redxtech]

Yeah, I was only allowed to update the English translations, as that's the only language I'm capable of actually verifying.

As for approval, I'm pretty sure the maintainer should merge it once you've given the OK, but repo rules say that your plugins won't be modified without original owner's approval, other than with bug fixes or tree-wide changes.

I don't think you can modify this PR to add the translations on top, but I think a subsequent PR would work fine!

Thanks 👍
