Start with com.microsoft.azure.toolkit.intellij.common.action.IntellijAzureActionManager$ActionGroupWrapper and inspect how its ServicesPopup action group gets its default text. Check the plugin.xml declaration or class constructor, then open the IntelliJ Services popup to verify the action has non-empty menu text and the PluginException no longer occurs.
