Shortcut Information

This shortcut is designed to accept URLs from on-screen (on Mac), using the Share sheet, or from the clipboard and add it to Things.

The title of the link is extracted and used as the default to-do title, plus the item is stored in the Research area, set to Start this evening with a reminder at 7pm, a deadline due in 3 days, and the URL in the notes.

The Quick Entry action is used so that the task pops-up fully filled-in, with your cursor on the title so you can add any additional context before saving it into Things.
