Automation Blocks: convert Timline clips to Subclips

I am new to Automation Blocks, and trying to figure out how to take a long sequence full of clips and convert each of them into a subclip where the trims are restricted to the subclip boundaries.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Great!
Bonus tip:
If you replace the text "subclip of $1" by "footage\subclip of $1" it will place the subclips in the bin "footage" of your project.
Just make sure that bin exists or add a block at the beginning to create the bin if necessary.
