Making a Shortcut on Mac that Opens apps if a certain focus comes on!

Shortcuts automations are not available on the Mac (as they are on the iPhone or iPad). You would need to use a 3rd party tool such as Shortery: App Store - Shortery. In particular, this app allows you to use a Focus mode as a trigger for a shortcut.

So I'm on a mission to make the best productivity workflow using shortcuts and Focus!

One idea I have is when a focus is turned on to open an app or multiple apps! I have this on my phone but it would be great if I could have it on the new Mac I got making studying for subjects with things like sidecar with iPad a lot more seamless, I wonder if there is a way to even open up stage manger? If anyone would be so kind to let me know if there is a way to create such a shortcut! Also where can I find automations on the Mac, like in the shortcut app on iPhone?

Thank you!
