I would like to say "hey Alexa, good morning", and have it do the following:

1) tell me the weather
2) turn on the TV
3) issue a command to a Fire TV

I can do all those things individually using Alexa voice commands, but the macro functionality couldn't string them all together. Has this changed?
I believe so.
Have you looked into Alexa templates?
