Description

File system locations related to automatic launch seem to have moved around. The same steps worked fine on a Monterey upgraded from older OS X.

I am not that good with OS X, so feel free to correct me.

Research direction

Start with the linked Telegraf installation page and compare its automatic-launch steps with a fresh Monterey installation; the issue does not name a repository file or test. Done means the documented filesystem locations and installation steps work on fresh Monterey, with the page updated accordingly.
