The challenge
A personal watchlist needs useful title discovery and durable saved state without becoming a heavy media platform.
The approach
Use live television metadata search, resilient fallbacks, and a focused library interface designed around quick capture and retrieval.

Important decisions
- Use a supported live metadata source rather than inventing a local catalog.
- Design fallback behavior for incomplete or unavailable metadata.
- Keep the public product focused on personal organization.
Current outcome
WatchNest is a working public beta with live title search and persistent personal-library behavior.
