When a required field is missing from library.properties the Arduino IDE does not recognize the library:

  • Sketch > Include Library > Add .ZIP Library fails silently.
  • Compilation of any code that includes the library fails.
  • After manual installation, "Invalid library" warnings are shown every time the libraries are scanned.
  • Library Manager index inclusion request is blocked.
