Run Ghidra and click on the green dragon CodeBrowser icon in the Tool Chest.

Open the Script Manager window by selecting Window -> Script Manager in the application menu.

Select the Manage Script Directories button in the top right corner of the script manager window.

Add the ~/ghidra_scripts directory as a bundle.

Click Ok and the ~/ghidra_scripts directory should be added as a script search directory for Ghidra indicated by a green path location and check mark.

Exit out of the bundle manager and refresh the script list.
