Power Automate Desktop (PAD) does this, actually.
If you select a set of actions from a "flow" in the PAD low code UI, copy to the clipboard, and paste into a text editor, you'll get the code for the original steps in a language called Robin[1][2], a DSL for Robotic Process Automation.
If you paste a selection of Robin code back into the PAD UI, PAD automatically generates the corresponding low code steps.
Public work on the Robin language appears to have ended in 2021. I seem to recall having read that MS acqui-hired the team and shut down the public-facing side of the project, but I may be misremembering that part.
