Executing Edit Alarm in Shortcuts stops the current alarm and opens the 'Alarm' section of the Clock.app .
Obviously not a solution that runs completely in the background.
Currently I cannot confirm how it behaves on a password protected device.

Can you elaborate a bit more what you seek to achieve?
Perhaps it is more feasible to create an Automation/Shortcut that rings an alarm sound at a given time for n times and then stops.

I could not find Edit Alarm in shortcuts or automation.. only Edit Sleep Alarm.
What I want to achieve is how to STOP an alarm from sounding/playing; as I think by default the alarm sounds for 15 minutes! Is there a command to stop an alarm after x amount of minutes?
