Just an observation, but I don’t think your code in setup_output:
         If exposed_output_name:
                n1, _ = compound_data.ExposedOutputs()[0]
                n1.SetName(exposed_output_name)

Is needed. I had issues with creating a second compound node with two outputs getting labeled properly when connecting to another compound node.

Which version of Poser are you using?
I mean, I use this addon quite everyday and I haven't met this situation, but I'm using Poser 13.3.895, and I haven't tested it with older versions, nor with Poser 12.x
The code you are referencing in your comment is to allow me to rename the output in some cases, for example when I'd like to distinguish between lips, face, etc.
That being said, I don't recognize the "GlossSpecular Convert" compound node?

Using Poser 13.3.895. GlossSpecular Convert I duplicate in my code. You can find it in: "included\Superfly Materials\Superfly Tileable\!Guide\Gloss-Spec_Conversion."

Right or wrong this is just an observation that I found by trial and error to get my compound nodes (compound to compound) to connect correctly using your code as a baseline.

Tried to get some documentation on Poser 13.3 poser python compound nodes from support but they told me none was available yet. Told me that they would include an updated Poser Python Methods manual in the future.  I am currently using the PDF manual from Poser 11 Pro, but it does not include all the methods for compound nodes.
