I've only been able to do this sort of thing by taking advantage of the
fact that buttons can fire two actions in sequential order: <$button
action<<second_action>>> <<first_action>></$button>.
So you can use <$action-createtidder
$savetitle="$:/temp/new_button_tiddler"> in <<first_action>> to save the
*actual* title and not the base title and then use it in in the
second_action like:
<$fieldmangler tiddler={{$:/temp/new_button_tiddler}}>
<$action-sendmessage $message="tm-add-tag" $param=<<currentTiddler>>/>
</$fieldmangler>
See https://sextant.space/#ButtonHere
and stick a {{||ButtonHere}} in a new tiddler to see it in action.
You might be able to adapt it to your needs.
