passing output to use in other scripts with response_variable

[lawya-cm]

Is there a way to call a pyscript from within some other automation or yaml script and make use of the output in that other script.

For many services you can use response_variable e.g

- service: weather.get_forecast
  data:
    type: hourly
  target:
    entity_id: weather.forecast_home
  response_variable: hourly_forecast

Is this possible in a pyscript or is there another approach other than using a helper with an input_text as I am doing now?
