My tuppence worth:
Gimp does not have a macro function. The clever guys say, write a script, assign it to a shortcut key. Forty years ago I found FORTRAN and punched cards easy. Now anything other than a few command lines are **** . I will use something else.
As earlier there is BIMP.
Not really what you need, It works with files on disk, so anything in GIMP has to be saved first. However, there is a 64 bit version that works with Windows Gimp 2.10.2

Looks like this (another one of my all-in-one-screenshots
which incidentally uses two home-made scripts one to scale 2/3rds size with a bit of sharpening and a second which exports to a 85 quality jpeg - save bandwidth - save the planet)

(1) the image (2) a 50% scale setting (3) a brightness/contrast setting (4) export to a jpeg (5) the destination.
These can be saved in a 'preset' file for reuse later (6) is that scaled down jpeg in a viewer.
