Fortunately, I have a pro subscription, Keyboard Maestro is scriptable, and I was able to put together an AppleScript to allow an address to be generated by Hook for a macro or macro group. Pro subscribers of Hook can create their own integration scripts that allow Hook to work with any app capable of supporting hyperlinking to a specific resource. The one issue that is presented is that out-of-the-box, Hook does not have support for Keyboard Maestro. Being able to link out to Obsidian via Hook opens up a plethora of options around how I can document something in Keyboard Maestro. For example, you are not going to get a diagram or hyperlinks in those places.

While Keyboard Maestro does provide comment blocks in macros and notes fields for action blocks, they are quite limited in terms of trying to be comprehensive with documentation. It is a core tool in my Mac automation tool set. Keyboard Maestro is a tool that allows you to build sets of macros that can be activated by a wide variety of triggers and execute a wide variety of automation steps.

If you have ever looked for utility and flexibility with your automations on macOS, the chances are pretty high that you will have come across Keyboard Maestro. Today, I am going to share something that helps me work with documenting Keyboard Maestro macros. In my post yesterday, I described how I was using Obsidian and Hook to help me support my documentation of automations. Automation Documentation: Hooking Keyboard Maestro
