@onthehead I agree with the article. I've used these approaches in my Illustrator scripts for years. Plus: always test on Mac/PC and multiple versions. That's how I found a 2020 v24.3 crash with app.undo() + textFrames.add().
@yamo74 I tested it on macOS Tahoe. It looks interesting, reminds me of SPAi by @monokano . I think the minimum version of macOS Sequoia should be specified in the requirements for Scripta app, as Sequoia v15.5 is not supported.

@yamo74 This is an interesting. But I see that GPT breaks the code a bit and, for example, has given you a non-existent undo in Illustrator. Since the correct app.executeMenuCommand('undo'). It will be interesting to study the entire code and at the same time make an English version
