# `automations`

Automatically take [actions](actions/README.md) based on [conditions](conditions.md) being met.

> [!TIP]
> To change configuration conditionally use [overrides](overrides.md).

```yaml
automations:
  - conditions:
      - [condition]
    actions:
      - [action]
    actions_not:
      - [action]
```
