Some plugins have a confirmation to update the library. (According to this post it's a Calibre requirement to prevent db collisions/conflicts.) This confirmation uses a self.gui.proceed_question() dialog, which is the type that pops up in the lower right hand corner with yes/no/other options.

Count Pages, Extract ISBN, and FanFicFare are the three I know of and tested with. Calibre uses it for a few things too, bulk metadata downloads is one.

When I tested: Action Chains waited for the jobs to finish, but did not account for the confirmation and immediately fired off the next action.
I don't know FanFicFare, but for CountPages and ExtractISBN, you can configure them to not showing the confirmation, so it would work.
