I’ve started digging into Alfred (alfredapp.com) automations recently and have had similar experiences. It’s pretty easy to create simple automations using their workflow interface, and I was pleased to discover they made it really simple to publish the resulting workflow using git. In a few minutes I was able to create a workflow to pull a highlighted value and push the user to a variety of different internal websites depending on a regex match.

I’ve poked at Automator and Shortcuts a bit and found them similarly useful. The only issue is that not every app exposes functions to them yet, so there are a number of workflows I’d like to create that won’t work until the app dev adds functions to support “tell this app to do this thing”. KeyboardMaestro works well for filling that gap, but it’s a little awkward to figure out the “click at this spot on the screen” bits.
