How Shortcuts for the Mac will fit in - All this

I've been a huge fan of Shortcuts since before Apple bought it and it was called Workflow. With Shortcuts coming to macOS Monterey I’m eager to play around with the bevy of powerful tools added to it. The fact that you can bridge Shortcuts into Unix style automation is incredible.

All in all, this looks like everything I wanted in Mac Shortcuts. As I said in the post two years ago, the ability to run every kind of automation from every other kind of automation is key to making a fluid system, where you can use each tool for what it does best. Also, it means that third-party automation tools like Keyboard Maestro, which has a good AppleScript dictionary for running its macros, will fit in well with the new environment even before they incorporate Intents that are directly accessible from Shortcuts.

I can’t wait to get my hands on this and start creating even more powerful automations! Automation is a super power! ⚡️
