Clicking with scripts

I am a beginner in programming. Is it possible to create a script that clicks on a specific position in the Krita canvas (for example, the current cursor position)? I would like to automate the process of switching to the continuous selection tool, clicking on an arbitrary position, extending the area, and so on. However, I could not find a function to do the clicking. Translated at DeepL

It can be used to force tools that require manual clicking, such as continuous selection or layer selection, to work programmatically, but it will not be useful in many situations.
Note that if you register this script to a shortcut that includes the Shift key, for example, the result will be a Shift+click situation.
