Abstract
This disclosure is directed to systems, methods, and devices related to providing the execution of multi-operation sequences based on a trigger occurring which may be a voice-controlled utterance or execution may be based on a trigger occurring and a condition occurring. In accordance with various principles disclosed herein, multi-operation sequences may be executed based on voice-controlled commands and the identification that a trigger has occurred. The voice-controlled electronic devices can be configured to communicate with, and to directly control the operation of, a wide array of other devices. These devices can include, without limitation, outlets that can be turned ON and OFF remotely such that anything plugged into them can be controlled, turning lights ON and OFF, setting the temperature of a network accessible thermostat, etc.
