Recurring list item using automation

I created a list that has recurring (yes/no), frequency (number-meant to be days), completed (yes/no), and a due date (friendly format) columns. I want to use the information in this list to create a power automate flow to set a recurring item triggered by when it is completed. Just create a new task with same information but updating the due date with the frequency days. I’m new and would appreciate help.

    You could create flow as following pictures show.

    2.Step2, in the Compose3: int(outputs('Compose')), in the Compose4: addDays(outputs('Compose_2'),outputs('Compose_3'),'yyyy-MM-dd')

    Based on your description, I understand that your requirement is to update due date column values with frequency column values when recurring column is Yes.

    In my opinion, the due date column is a date and time column and the frequency column is a number column, you cannot update due date column values with frequency column values.
