I got very excited when Apple announced that they had brought the Shortcuts app to macOS. I love automation, but I have a love/hate relationship with AppleScript. The Shortcuts app ships with a myriad of actions that you can use to build your shortcuts. However, I noticed some missing pieces, so I decided to scratch my own itch. The result is this collection of more than 50 actions to solve various problems. For example, it has an action to get a list of your music playlists. You can then pick a random one from that list and play it. I'm happy to consider requests for additional actions, either here or through the feedback button in the app.
