Shortcut Information
Use this shortcut to change your active text displayed in One Thing in the Menu Bar on your Mac.
This shortcut gets the current menu bar text and shows it in the prompt, plus includes the current text as the default answer.
In effect, this is the same as tapping the menu bar item, but this flow can be used with Run Shortcut inside any other shortcut when you want to update your current status.
