This is a very big question.

Do you have any existing devices that you want to control?

What sort/type are they?

of course there are devices to control because i use shellys for all lights in the house but i would like to program some entertainment possibilities with alexa

example if i say alexa how are you should alexa answer me well and you or i am bored  
........  
like a kai with whom I can talk and react and respond to different conditions

Hi matze,  
but that example has nothing to do with Node-RED!?  
You can talk to Alexa about the weather, but your Shellys won't start like this.  
What do you have beside these Shellys, since "of course" we do not have any clue about that?

If you want to define responses to spoken text, you can do that with routines in the alexa app.

Yes use the node-red-contrib-alexa-remote2 or node-red-contrib-alexa-home-skill or node-red-contrib-amazon-echo. All work differently, but should be possible with limitations

</div>

with thr remote2 nodes  
alexa event node set to device activity, you can get the spoken words from

```auto
msg.payload.description.summary.

```

then using routine node set to custom you can feed a json to get alexa to speak

```auto
{ type: 'speak', payload: { type: 'regular', text: 'Hello!', devices: ['My Echo']}

```

```

simple example, limitation you have to configure the spoken words in routines or a blue print question and answer to remove the alexa response i do not understand. This example uses the wake word computer, edit for alexa, echo, etc

hi good evening so i have tested it almost only alexa has to listen to a request and then be able to answer.  
but otherwise that's very cool, thank you for your help.  
if you still want to develop it further, I would be very happy.

By the way, I'm the matze and you ...

Ja schon klar 😊 ich meine aus welcher stadt / Bundesland

Aber wie auch immer 😉 hast du vielleicht eine Idee wie man den listening Modus der alexa im payload offen hält, so dass man mehrere Dinge abfragen und ausführen kann
