What command is sent from Android Wear when you click "Open On Phone"?

Question

I'm trying to make a tasker profile that sends a command to my PC to open different websites when I click the "Open on Phone" option. I'm going to set it up using an AutoWear command filter and Unified Remote. I'd like it to have it set that if I click the "Open on Phone" option for GMail, it opens gmail.com. Reddit will open reddit.com, etc. However, I don't know what command is sent from Android Wear to my phone to set the command filter, as well as how it identifies what application to open (probably com.something).

Does anyone know what the command is? It would be really helpful. Sorry if this isn't the right place to post. I saw a few threads about Android Wear on Google and figured it'd be a good place to ask.

The 'Open on Phone' option is an option on notifications posted from the phone to Android Wear. It triggers the PendingIntent set with setContentIntent() and could link to anywhere (it is entirely up to each app developer) - but a deep link into an app is the most common as that same action is shared on the phone side when tapping a notification.

So, for example, if I received click the Open On Phone button for GMail, it would send: setContentIntent(com.google.android.gm) ? – Nostradamefrus Apr 08 '16 at 16:13
No, unfortunately that's not how it works. As mentioned it could be **anything** at all. There's no pre-determined format, style, or even type of action. – ianhanniballake Apr 08 '16 at 17:00
Is there any way to find out what it is so I can create this profile? Any logs or something? – Nostradamefrus Apr 08 '16 at 17:08
