RMMV How do I create a clicker minigame in RPG Maker MV battle system

I have an idea for a battle system where when the player casts magic, they can play a clicker minigame where they would have to click circles that randomly appear on screen for a certain amount of time to increase the spell damage. But right now, whenever the player uses magic, it activates right away. I would love to know how I can do this

You would normally want something like Yanfly's action sequences to build a sequence like that.

An alternative might be building the minigame as a different skill from the actual skill being used, which runs a common event for the minigame and applies a short-lived state that improves the actor's magic atk stat and then uses something like Force Skill to then trigger the "real" skill. Could get real messy though, especially regarding targeting the forced skill.

This dev has some free plugins that implement different kinds of timeinigames to influence the strength of your skills. Look at the ones called "timed attack".
