Yes, looks like that’s everything that’s available. We don’t expose the “stop moving” actions in cloud-to-cloud integrations because the latency might be too high. The time it’d take to say the phrase “Alexa stop (shades)” plus the time for the request to reach the Bond would probably make this not really usable.
