tid.sh "monkey"

There’s a `Run […]` action that almost does what you want, but the
executable goes in the third pane and the argument(s) in the third. It
should be possible to add a reverse of that to the plug-in, but it
doesn’t currently exist.
Your best bet at this point is probably to create an [AppleScript
action][asa]. The [Mosh script][mosh] looks pretty similar to what you
want to do. You just need to make the script return the results of the
shell command. [Another script][return] has an example of that.
