So does anyone have any idea why I can't receive local traps?
What address(es) is your snmptrapd listening on? To receive traps to
localhost you must have either 127.0.0.1 or 0.0.0.0 in the list.
to 'localhost'.

Starting with the basics, I have /etc/snmp/snmptrapd.conf with one
entry in it:
authCommunity execute public
if I comment it out, snmptrapd complains so it’s clearly doing
something with this.

But you only authorized execution, not logging. Change execute
to log above and you should see the notifications.
Nope - changed it to 'log' and I still don’t anything reported by the trap
daemon. I think the purpose of execute was there to allow it to run a script
from the traphandle
