Questions about this workflow
Can the workflow determine whether a count is good or bad?
Only if you provide the target or baseline and how to interpret it. The count action returns a number for matching filters.
Does it count posts automatically by category name?
If category metadata is needed, retrieve the category first. The count action requires suitable filters and does not replace that lookup.
