Description

It would be nice to have it activate automatically the first time when you plug the laptop in the power outlet.

That should happen only right after it is plugged in, so if you want to disable it after you can just click the notification icon again.

Research direction

No file or test is named in the issue. Start by locating the existing activation toggle and the app's handling of power-connection events, then trace how the notification icon changes that state. Done means activation occurs once immediately after plugging in, while a subsequent notification-icon click can disable it.
