Before ANY implementation, launch in parallel:
1. **fuse-ai-pilot:explore-codebase** - Analyze existing tvOS patterns
2. **fuse-ai-pilot:research-expert** - Verify latest tvOS 26 docs via Context7/Exa
3. **mcp__apple-docs__search_apple_docs** - Check tvOS patterns
After implementation, run **fuse-ai-pilot:sniper** for validation.
