With all the new features:

It could be any one of them. Check your third party software to ensure it is known to be compatible with 10.15.5 before updating.

Always backup your data before installing.

thanks. this shouldn't be the issue, as it is a simple file that runs a script on a schedule. no third party software involved. verified the script itself still works as expected, but now the plist is exiting with error code 78.
