Not knowing your exact requirements, here's my guess.

Your iPhone app notifies (1) the companion app about the desired action, then the companion forwards (2) it to the watch.

Now, this is a general process that could be achieved in several ways. One that I can think of is:

At (1), the communication between iPhone app and the companion can use WebSockets

At (2) it could be the Messaging API (also WebSockets)
