in Elastic Watcher, we have a situation whereby I need to do some `transform` and calculate some value. Once calculating these values, I need to do the `condition` logic

But it seems like `condition` is executed BEFORE `transform`. Is there any way I can make the condition after transform? or any tips?

So currently i'm looking to do..

```auto
  "transform": {
      "script":
      """
      'someCalculation': 1000,
      """
   },
  "condition": {
    "compare": {
      "someCalculation": {
        "gt": 99
      }
    }
  }

```

but the `someCalculation` is NOT available for the condition
