Like the title says, would be nice if an automation can check if another automation is not running without using input boolean work around.
Need to make it limitable like, if this other automation has not been run last minute, then it’s oke to continue…
You can do this without a boolean by looking at the current attribute on the automation. If it’s greater than zero, it’s running.

I tought the same…but that didn’t work If I remember correctly. Aldough, you maybe right. But I needed something of a time frame like “it just ran last minute”. And the "current’ attribute has no “last changed” status -info I could finetune on If I was correct. So if the automation triggers just after or before the “current” attribute they mis out eachother.
I hope I’m correct on this comment, need to double check again later.
If an automation’s trigger is executed but its condition isn’t fulfilled, the automation’s last_triggered remains unchanged. The value of last_triggered represents the time when the automation started executing its actions.
