As pointed out here, HDR is absent from LrC for both Nik 5 and Nik 6 versions…even though they are visible and active according to LrC’s module manager:

Update: Copied the plugins from the respective folders in /Users/…/Library/… to /Library/ - but it did not help. Plugins showed up in the module manager, but not in the menu.

All of the above with LrC 12.5 on macOS Monterey (latest) on iMac 2019…and the expected stuff is present as we can see in EasyFind:

Platypus,

The HDR Efex plugin is accessed via the export menu:

Lightroom Classic Accessing Nik 6 HDR Efex Plugin 11.10.23
Lightroom Classic Accessing Nik 6 HDR Efex Plugin 11.10.231920×1080 173 KB

Alternatively right click on the thumbnail:

Lightroom Classic Accessing Nik 6 HDR Efex Plugin Right Click on Thumbnail 11.10.23
Lightroom Classic Accessing Nik 6 HDR Efex Plugin Right Click on Thumbnail 11.10.231920×1080 335 KB

I am running Windows 11, but as far as I am aware, Lightroom Classic functions on macOS in a similar manner.
