Actions in Shortcut not showing

Hello, I want to create an automation that will notify me when my battery is 80% by playing a sound or sending a notification. However, when I try to add the actions, I don’t see any options.

Shortcut automation on Mac I want to set up a shortcut on Mac that sends me a notification when my battery is at 20% and when my battery is 80%. I have this set up for my other devices but the Mac shortcuts app doesn't have automation. Is there a way to do this with or without the shortcuts app?

Apple Shortcut Action Toggle Problem I’d like to have a shortcut that automatically detects the previous action state. For instance, when airplane mode is off and I press the action button while in work focus mode, the action should automatically turn airplane mode on without requiring me to show an “Ask every time” pop-up. I want to avoid multiple presses. If I want that, I could simply swipe down the control panel and tap on airplane mode. Could you please help me achieve this single action button press that can automatically detect whether an action is true or false and perform the opposite action? Thank you. Below is the link to the shortcut Focus Smart Button

This happens to me occasionally, too. Quit Shortcuts completely and reopen it.
