Integration with Messages App

If the phone number were not an iMessage enabled number, Apple Messages will try to send it by SMS. The applescript included in this repository is ready to send the message, but can use an Apple Shortcut, also, but you will need to manually create the shortcut and change (uncomment code) the bash script to call it.

Creating the shortcute is easy, anyway. Just like the screenshot below.
