My effort is going to getting the skill published rather than adding new features at the moment
This is requiring quite a bit of back and forth given the nature of the skill

Hi,
can you help me with getting the key?
I get Skill response was marked as failure.
The Target Lambda application returned a failure response.

This has been far easier to setup (and much more effective) than previous solutions I've tried so Thanks! and it does look like a very promising start. Realizing that you're still in beta and busy trying to get the skill published, what are the chances that you could find time to add a working "select/enter" function? Currently the skill is not 100% effective at searching although the up/down/left/right work very well. If a "select" function were added it would provide basic voice navigation while you're pursuing other efforts and fine tuning at a later date.... (?)

I've got it hooked up, but I have no (blank) entries under all of the addon categories. I don't really have addons, but I have a huge (mysql) library. Does this not play things from the library?
I've tried asking Alexa to play a show/episode, and it says the media doesn't exist.
**Edit - I got it working. I made an assumption that I needed to change the host and port to mine. Bad assumption.

[FIXED] Never mind - I guess I had to reboot to see it in the Addons-Services menu.
I'm pretty new to both Kodi and the Echo, but getting through most of this has been a breeze! Thanks for your effort.
Of course, I'm getting stuck near the end of the setup and I'm positive it's just because of my ignorance/inexperience with Kodi.
I downloaded the repo .zip and enabled it - it shows up in my add-ons as enabled. However the next line says "Install the Alexa Service as normal." This is the part I have no idea how to do. When I click on the Alexa add on, the only options available are uninstall and disable. Configure is grayed out and I can't find the place to enter the key that got sent to my Alexa app.
Can anyone straighten me out on this?
Thanks.

In the latest Echo update, trying to play anything with the word "the" in it makes the Echo look for sports scores.
"Alexa, ask Kodi to play The Hateful Eight"
"I can't find a team named Hateful Eight"
Really pretty annoying that it doesn't understand you've "asked Kodi".
