How to set up Autorun in Focus on Mac

With the arrival of macOS Monterey and other current systems, we got a brand new feature called Focus. This feature replaces the original Do Not Disturb mode from previous versions of Apple operating systems and offers many more features. Within the Focus, you can create several different modes, in which all preferences can be changed individually independently of each other. As far as options are concerned, each Focus mode naturally includes settings for who will be able to call you, or which applications will be able to send you notifications. Of course, more of these presets are available.
