What about https://github.com/fablabnbg/inkscape-chain-paths?

It was made for exactly that purpose, as far as I understand what you're
asking for - although I don't get the complex chain of commands, so
maybe you're doing something different?

A manual option would be to select all (Ctrl+A), switch to node tool
(n), select all nodes (Ctrl+A) and then to join the nodes (button 'join
selected nodes with new segment' or Alt+J).
