one which was missing. if you're on a watchface that doesn't support the current date ask it 'Show me the current date' and it will do that.
 
some of those no longer work. such as 'ok google play my music' only gives me a link to Google Play searches on the phone. it doesn't even load Play Music itself.

Asking for the next week's weather won't show a weekly forecast, only shows the current weather card for the current day.

Go Go Gadget doesn't work. again, defaults to a standard search. opens on phone.

a lot of commands just end with 'disconnected' with a slashed cloud icon. I've only found out a few that actually work. about 5 or so. you can send texts, open the weather card, show your steps, call people, but that's it. and, the syntax must be 100% or it will always go to a default search offering to open on the phone instead. only gripes but hoping they finish it.

the 'start [app]' command is extremely hit and miss, with no known reason. for example, I have 'Music Controller' installed on the watch, where I should be able to open it with 'OK Google, start Music Controller'. about 9 out of 10 times it defaults to a standard search, and hardly ever actually starts the app. I have not found out why it is that way. on my home wifi it works, but on a 4G LTE connection it does not.
