There will always be problems with abilities that allow you to "guess" ahead of time what will happen.
In this case, the target has to "guess" that he will be able to do/try said action *by the end of his turn*.
What i mean with this is that the spell asks you in the beginning of your turn if you will take X action by the end of turn, but realistically you cannot know if something will happen before the end of the turn that will stop that from happenning.
So, let's say that we cast that at someone in the back and ask him to strike. He accepts that he will do so, and then moves towards a target to punch him. While moving he gets tripped/trapped/interrupted/etc
Now he is on the floor, with no one around him, and one action left.
he has already said he was going to "strike" though.
Does he punch the air losing his last action, or does he stands up normally since at that point he is unable to take said action (even though he was able to take that action in the beginning of his turn when he declared so)?

You ask someone to cast a spell. He has shocking grasp, so he accepts. He starts moving closer to get in touch range and he is interrupted by a critical AoO.
Now what? He cant move for a second time and still have enough actions to cast the spell although he already accepted that this would be what he will be doing by the end of his turn.
Is he forced to cast it on himself? Are the rest of the actions lost (cast into nothing)? Is Nudge Intent suddenly "unable to comply so disreagard"?
