Hello is a possibility to detect when app is opened using google assistant. My initial plan is when the app is opened by google assistant it will run a specific command on my app and run that command.
App Actions "let users launch specific features in your app using the Google Assistant."
Along certain verticals you are able to add information to your manifest that will allow a user to open your app to a specific activity with some additional information like parameters.

I am trying to use the Work Profile version of the Google Assistant app, but I cannot get past the "set default assist app" screen in order to start using Google Assistant. It works on some phones, but not on my Pixel 3 or a Pixel 2 XL that I tested it on.
Steps to reproduce:
Tap on the Work Profile Google Assistant app, and a screen appears to prompt the me to set the default assist app
Tap on "Settings".
When I tap on "Assist App", the "Permission Controller" screen opens briefly and then closes immediately.
Finally any more taps on "Assist App" again has touch feedback show nothing.

Make sure that your work account as permission to access your voice.
Go to the Activity Controls page.
Sign in with your Google account
Enable the following permissions:
Web & App Activity
Under Web & App Activity, check the box next to Include Chrome history and activity from sites, apps, and devices that use Google services.
If that doesn't work, this can be due to limitations or restrictions with work accounts. Contact your admin.
I developed a game using unity engine for android platform.
I have used GPGS plugin from github
But i was unable to "sign in" into GPGS during testing phase(A popup comes up saying "connecting to GPGS" loads 2 times and vanish).but as soon as i published my game on google play store,GPGS starts working properly(now i am able to sign in to my account).
Where i was wrong during my testing phase?
I already add tester email on google play console
Try to check this documentation.
Maybe you missed some essential steps.
To add testing access to an account:
Open the Testing tab for your game in the Google Play Developer Console.
Click the Add testers button.
In the dialog that appears, enter the email addresses of the Google Accounts that you wish to add as testers (one email address per
line).
Click Add to save your preferences. The tester accounts you added should now be able to access your Google Play games services.
You can also see this forum for reference.
I've got an Actions on Google application which runs when shared with another Google account but doesn't run for the application owner.
I keeps asking me to:

Voice, Audio, Web & App activity are turned on for my account. Any clues?
Thanks

I am wondering whether there is any JS API to start another chrome app on button click event in a chrome packaged app.
As a general rule, no, you can't invoke another app.
However, if you control both apps, you can set the second app to expect an external message.
You can add chrome.runtime.onMessageExternal listener to the second app's event page script, and send a message with the app ID from the first to wake the second app and launch the app window. See this for more details.
In general, an extension can do this task and more thanks to the management API. It is, however, unavailable for Apps as of now.
Feature request to add this API for apps: #455550
I'm actually developing an application using Google Drive SDK. I don't want to create a listing or register my app into Chrome Store. Anyways, my web app is able to connect to my personal GDrive account and upload a file without Chrome Store intervention just using Oauth authentication and my own API key.
But if I want "Open with" feature in my application, is it necessary to register it in Chrome Store, or can I use it without registration?
"Open with" feature allows to open file from Google Drive directly with any application associated for its file extension. For example, 8reader app allows me to open .epub files
Correct, currently for "Open with" functionality you need to register your app in the Chrome Web store. You no longer need a Chrome Web store app to access the Drive API (as you say). We are looking to improve this usability so users can install your app without the Chrome We store. Stay tuned!
