One approach for integrating Alexa (#2934) requires the user to provide Alexa's response via a response to a message like:

Research direction
Start with the linked src/server/services/remote-client.js RemoteClient class and review the Alexa integration context in the issue. Determine how browser messages should be addressed to server services or RPCs and whether a blocking sendMessage operation fits. The issue does not specify completion criteria, so those requirements need clarification before implementation.
