Once configured, clicking the Dock tile runs that shortcut. To choose another, right-click the tile and open Configure widget…. Add more tiles for other shortcuts you use often.

Find a new or renamed shortcut

Choose Refresh in the widget after creating or renaming a shortcut. If the list is empty, click Open Shortcuts, create one, and refresh again.

If a shortcut does not run

Open it in the Shortcuts app and run it there first. Complete any setup or permission prompts required by its actions, then try the Dock tile again. If you renamed or deleted it, refresh the list and select an available shortcut.
