 "summary": "Pair your laptop with a newer Google TV so the cleanup scripts can reach it.",
 "who": "An owner of a Chromecast with Google TV that has no plain USB debugging.",
 "problem": "Newer Google TVs only have Wireless debugging with a pairing code, so install.sh alone will not connect.",
 "outcome": "A laptop connected to the TV, ready for the cleanup scripts.",
 "steps": [
  "In Developer options open Wireless debugging and choose Pair device with pairing code, and leave that screen open",
  "On the laptop run adb pair with the IP and port shown under the code, and type the code",
  "On the Wireless debugging screen note the other IP and port and run adb connect with them",
  "Use that same address for every script, such as install.sh and undo.sh",
  "If a script cannot reach the TV, pair and connect again, since the port changes on every restart"
