I have a Quick Action which flattens a PDF via Applescript. The code works extremely well--I right click in finder and the PDF is flattened, annotations are burned in, no other applications are opened, and the action completes in less than 2 seconds. Here is the Applescript code: I have a Shortcut which completes several operations on already-flattened PDFs. Presently 1) I run my Quick Action by right-clicking a PDF in Finder in order to flatten it, and 2) then right-click that save PDF in Finder to run my Shortcut on that now-flattened PDF. Ideally I'd like to add the Applescript code which flattens the PDF to the beginning of my Shortcut for the sake of convenience, and because sometimes I run my Shortcut having forgotten to flatten the PDF first. However I'm finding that the Applescript code, when placed into a Run Applescript action in Shortcuts, gives this error message: The exact same code when placed into a Run Applescript action in Automator and then run as a Quick Action by right-clicking the PDF in Finder, does not give an error and works perfectly. Does anybody have an explanation (and possible solution) for why this is the case?

After installing my notarized 3rd party app in a Tahoe VM, its embedded Automator actions can not be configured in Automator while defining a workflow: After adding the actions (enabling 3rd party extensions), their views / UI elements do not respond to any mouse event. When enabling „show this action when running“, the options can be changed during execution of the workflow. Needless to say: Adjusting these action settings in Automator was working for years, macOS 12 - 15 and before. Reported via Feedback Assistent (FB19015185). Can anybody confirm this issue with Automator actions?
