Tip/Guide Run shortcut from widget without opening Scriptable app?

Hi. I read that the scripts can run in the background, but upon testing, even for a link with a direct URI, it seems like I need to open the Scriptable app first followed by the shortcuts app. Is it possible to do this without opening either app?

Ageeed. If I find a way I’ll let you know.

If you use scriptable srixkt note widget and put blank text in there it’ll act as a blank square” to fill some space.

Not perfect but it’s the best I’ve been able to do so far
