Shortcuts is buggy as hell in the beta, but it looks like it will be better than Automator when it's done - even for advanced tasks. What's most important is that third party apps actually support it, and that's way easier with Shortcuts.

Looks like it can even run bash, Python and Perl scripts so maybe we're not going to need Automator anyway.

Shortcuts on iOS is a godsend, so I'm very optimistic about this.
