# Live Playback Stabilize Implementation Plan > **For agentic workers:** REQUIRED SUB-SKILL: Use superpowers:subagent-driven-development (recommended) or superpowers:executing-plans to implement this plan task-by-task. Steps use checkbox (`- [ ]`) syntax for tracking. **Goal:** Reduce dock live stutter / artifacting / full-player reconnects by tuning HLS for normal (non-LL) live and narrowing play-url rebuilds. **Architecture:** Keep responsibilities: `LivePlayer.vue` owns media attach/retry/recover; `useMonitorLive.js` owns session/lease/play-url.
