It is reported that a manual step is required to enable user configuration of KWin scripts. This is a limitation of KWin scripting.

To enable configuration, you must perform the following in command-line:

mkdir -p ~/.local/share/kservices5/
ln -s ~/.local/share/kwin/scripts/bismuth/metadata.desktop ~/.local/share/kservices5/bismuth.desktop

A configuration button will appear in KWin Scripts in System Settings.

To make changes effective, the script must be reactivated:
