device-risk. Newer Google TVs only offer Wireless debugging, which needs adb pair and adb connect before the scripts can reach the TV.
Who it is forSomeone who ran the cleanup and wants a feature, like voice search, back.
The problemTurned-off apps can break a feature you actually use, and you need a safe way back.
The outcomeEvery app the agent disabled running again.
What you need first
- Claude Code or Codex on a laptop
- A TV running Android TV or Google TV, on the same Wi-Fi as the laptop
- Developer mode and USB debugging turned on in the TV settings
Steps
- Turn USB debugging back on in Developer options on the TV
- Open your agent and ask it to run undo.sh for your TV, which turns everything back on using its undo list
- Restart the TV once and check it starts up normally
- Turn debugging off again when you are done
Prompt for your agent
Run TV Detox's undo.sh for my Android TV at <ip> and turn back on every app we turned off. Show me the undo list first, and check the TV restarts normally afterwards.
Caveat.
