MoE Code adds additional useful actions to Apple's Shortcuts app. After spending ~2 years developing ~40 distinct shortcuts (https://routinehub.co/user/mythofechelon) over ~650 versions and encountering all sorts of functionality gaps, I decided to develop and share my own native solutions. These are currently as follows, and I'm happy to take suggestions! • AI ◦ "Is Apple Intelligence Functional?" ◦ "Is Apple Intelligence-Capable?" ◦ [iOS 27+ only] "Use AI Model With Images / Files" • Clipboard ◦ "Get Clipboards" ◦ "Set Clipboards" • Data: Dictionaries ◦ "Delete Nested Dictionary Key" ◦ "Pretty Print Dictionaries" ◦ "Set Nested Dictionary Value" • Data: HTML ◦ "Convert HTML Tables To JSON" ◦ "Extract HTML Elements Using SwiftSoup" • Data: JSON ◦ "Transform JSON Using JQ" • Data: Lists ◦ "Add Value(s) To List / Merge Lists" ◦ "Convert JSON Array To Shortcuts List" ◦ "Convert String / Shortcuts List To JSON Array" ◦ "Get Value Position In List" ◦ "List Contains List?" ◦ "List Contains Value?" ◦ "Remove Value From List" ◦ "Sort Keys Of Dicts In List" ◦ "Subtract Lists" • Data: Misc ◦ "Boolean" • Data: Text ◦ "Extract Strings From Binary" ◦ "Multi Replace Text" • Device ◦ "Get Device Ground Speed" ◦ "Get Device Model" ◦ "Get Device Type" ◦ "Is App Installed?" • Files ◦ "Get File / Folder Properties" • Media ◦ [iOS 27+ only] "Change Existing Images' / Videos' Captions" ◦ "Change Existing Images' / Videos' Creation Dates" ◦ "Change Existing Images' / Videos' Locations" ◦ "Chunk Video" ◦ [iOS 27+ only] "Find Photos By Captions" ◦ "Mark Photos / Videos" (as favourited, unfavourited, or hidden) ◦ "Play System Sound" ◦ [iOS 26+ only] "Resize Images With Fill (HDR)" • Network ◦ "Get Certificate Chain" ◦ "Is Internet-Connected?" ◦ "Make HTTP Request" • Settings ◦ "Get Reminders Default List" ◦ "Open Settings Deep Link" • Shortcuts ◦ "Convert JSON To PLIST" (XML or Base64-encoded binary) ◦ "Convert PLIST Binary To JSON" ◦ "Extract Action Blocks" ◦ "Find Invalid Variable References" • UI ◦ "Show Markdown" • Widget ◦ "Delete Widget / Complication Key" ◦ "Get Widget / Complication Value" ◦ "Set Circular Widget / Complication Value" ◦ "Set Text Widget / Complication Value" ◦ "Sync And Reload App Widgets"

Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: MoE Code at weekly against Action Status's every 6 months. MoE Code also leads on iOS requirement (18.0 vs 26.0). Action Status's advantage is device support (5 vs 3). On price, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
