For this to work on my Shield TV do I have to use the Shield remote or can I add a USB mic to my Shield TV so that I don't have to be holding a piece of hardware?

My couch ate the remote... I need to find it again.

Has anyone gotten google photos or results from your own google photos library to show?

E.g. Show me pictures of my trip to Prague. Show me my photos.

Works on google pixel google assistant. Not so much on Shield tv.

Misleading title should say "... on Shield TV". Since Google doesn't seem at all interested in supporting the rest of Android TV.
