Hi @bigmac5753,

You haven't downloaded the Python files correctly — you've accidentally saved the GitHub webpage HTML instead of the raw file content. The giveaway is this line in your error log:

<title>MeshCore-Home-Assistant-Panel-v2/appdaemon/apps/meshcore_snapshot_recorder.py at main · d3sbo/MeshCore-Home-Assistant-Panel-v2 · GitHub</title>

That's the GitHub page title being parsed as Python. The · character (U+00B7) is the separator GitHub uses in its page titles.

Fix: Use the Raw file URLs when downloading. For each file, click the Raw button on the GitHub page, or use wget directly:

wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/d3sbo/MeshCore-Home-Assistant-Panel-v2/main/appdaemon/apps/meshcore_hops.py
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/d3sbo/MeshCore-Home-Assistant-Panel-v2/main/appdaemon/apps/meshcore_paths.py
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/d3sbo/MeshCore-Home-Assistant-Panel-v2/main/appdaemon/apps/meshcore_cleanup.py
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/d3sbo/MeshCore-Home-Assistant-Panel-v2/main/appdaemon/apps/meshcore_greeter.py
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/d3sbo/MeshCore-Home-Assistant-Panel-v2/main/appdaemon/apps/meshcore_heatmap_export.py
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/d3sbo/MeshCore-Home-Assistant-Panel-v2/main/appdaemon/apps/meshcore_nodemap_export.py
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/d3sbo/MeshCore-Home-Assistant-Panel-v2/main/appdaemon/apps/meshcore_directlinks_export.py
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/d3sbo/MeshCore-Home-Assistant-Panel-v2/main/appdaemon/apps/meshcore_snapshot_recorder.py

Or clone the whole repo:

git clone https://github.com/d3sbo/MeshCore-Home-Assistant-Panel-v2.git

Then copy the files from appdaemon/apps/ to your AppDaemon apps folder.
