I’ve been using Stream Deck heavily for development, automation, support workflows, and daily productivity.

One thing that surprises me is that the built-in Text plugin still only supports static text.

It would be amazing to have placeholders / variables support like:

• {date}
• {time}
• {clipboard}
• {app}
• {username}

Even basic dynamic variables would unlock a huge number of workflows:

• quick support replies;
• timestamp insertion;
• coding snippets;
• dynamic stream titles;
• automation macros;
• terminal workflows.

Apps like Alfred, Raycast, Keyboard Maestro, and TextExpander already do this really well.

Feels like Stream Deck could become much more powerful with even simple placeholder support inside the Text action.

Does anyone else want this feature?
