Open terminal and run command

[stychu]

Hi, thanks for this great tool. Still finding out about it features.

I have some scripts/commands that I often run from my terminal. How could I make it so when running some ScriptKit it would open a window with preconfigured cli commands and then open an iTerm2 instance with the selected command and run it in that terminal instance? I found that I should be able to do this with open but can't make it work as it doesn't open the iterm instance.
Tried open('iterm') open('iterm2') open('iTerm') open('terminal')

I find the documentation really hard to follow and not containing all information regarding features/options in it.

Apparently you can't do it with open and have to use applescript for such.

await applescript(`
  tell application "iTerm"
    activate
  end tell

  repeat while application "iTerm" is not running
    delay 0.5
  end repeat

  tell application "iTerm"
    tell current window
      create tab with default profile
      tell current session of current tab
        write text "${command}"
      end tell
    end tell
  end tell
`)

This works. However, I have an issue. When iterm is closed and it opens first time via this run it doesn't trigger to write the command. I believe this is due to zsh loading or something. I can see that window of iterm on first run is ~zsh.... and then it loads my username.
If the iterm is already running this script works.

Any idea how I could make it work for the 1st run??
