I have a MBP that I connect to a 27" monitor when working from home. After hearing the guys talk about Moom I decided to give it a try and it’s awesome! I also went further down the rabbit hole and created a workflow that opens all of my “work” apps.
Right now, I hit one keyboard shortcut to run the workflow and open all of the apps then another keyboard shortcut to trigger Moom and arrange said apps.
Any idea how I can get that down to one keyboard shortcut? I tried assigning the same keyboard shortcut to both, but Moom overrides the shortcut and the workflow won’t run. I also looked at adding Moom to the workflow, but that doesn’t seem possible.
Two keyboard shortcuts is fine, but I’m having fun with this and wanted to see if I could be even more efficient. 
I like your thinking, but the problem is the second action is just a general keyboard shortcut for Moom, it’s not a part of Automator. I may be missing something, but I don’t see away to “fire off” Moom via Automator.
I completely misunderstood. Sorry.
Have you looked at Brett Terpstra’s Bunch app?
That looks pretty cool, but I don’t think that gets me any further than where I am now. It looks like that would just replace what I’m currently doing in Automator.
What are you using to create your keyboard shortcuts?
Nothing… I created a service for the Automator action to which I assigned a shortcut. Then I assigned a shortcut within Moom.
How about if you combined the Automator and Moom actions in a shell script and then run the shell script with a keyboard shortcut?
Do you have Keyboard Maestro installed?
You could have that fire of both items with one shortcut.
Oh man have you sent me down the rabbit hole. Yes, Keyboard Maestro works perfectly for this.
There goes many hours of my life… and $36

I’ll make it worse for you: KM can do it all natively…
