Little workaround

I have thougth this:

Items---> Trigger--->Action
Action is the only "Object" that can manage variables:
Host: echo {testmachine:item.ket.last(0)} > file.txt.

Now is an only example, I want pass {testmachine:item.ket.last(0)} in a sql query
and insert the result in a file.
After an other item read the file and send an alert to the my condition.

well but, can I insert different command in the same action?

Hostname: command1
Hostname: command2
