@Séverin, I agree with you, but that is nothing to do with this plugin. The logging of changing the role definition is done my Moodle core (where the assign_capability function in accesslib.php fires \core\event\capability_assigned). So, changing this would require a Tracker issue.
C’est moi (il y a quelques années) :-)
I've just installed and used it with Moodle 4.3 (on servers using PHP 8.0 or 8.2), with no problem.
Just a little detail when looking at logs generated :
The user id id '3' has unassigned the 'mod/lti:requesttooladd' capability for role '3'
should better be :
The user with id '3' has unassigned the 'mod/lti:requesttooladd' capability for role '3'

Tested and confirmed: the latest version of this plugin works with Moodle 3.9.

This plugin works in Moodle 3.0.
Note that the automated Behat test fails, which I think is just because of some change in the Behat testing system. That needs to be fixed at some point, but not now.

Very useful. Thanks smile
BTW, I made a useful SQL query that compare Role capabilities
(If you are using block/configurable_reports or ad-hoc system reports)

Thank you Tim!

Actually, I just tested this myself quickly, and as far as I can see, this works find in Moodle 2.5, so I updated the listing to say that.
Tim
I bet the Moodle 2.4 version of the plugin works in Moodle 2.5, but I have not tested it yet. I suggest you try it.

Hi Tim
Is there a plan to make this plug-in available for Moodle 2.5
