Condition --> ignoring automation if another is currently active

Configuration
1

Hello,

I’m new to this and I don’t know much about programming. So please bear with me.

Is it possible to create a Condition statement that ignores the automation if a specific automation is currently active?

Example

Light Bulb

    service: light.turn_on
      brightness_pct: '100'
      entity_id: light.light_bulb
      transition: '3600'

Transition

    service: light.turn_on
      brightness_pct: '80'
      color_name: magenta
      entity_id: light.light_bulb
      transition: '10'
      delay: 00:00:10
    service: light.turn_on
      brightness_pct: '80'
      color_name: cyan
      entity_id: light.light_bulb
      transition: '10'

Imagine that “Transition” is running on loop. Is there a way that “Light_Bulb” will not trigger if Transition is currently active? Can anyone please guide me how to write the Condition statement if possible?

Thanks.

If you separate the action section into it’s own script, you can check to see if the script is on.

I tried changing the loop into a script and I think it overrides the automation, which is what I wanted to happen.

Thanks!
