The best advice I've seen so far is to just cull every cane/branch outside the main stem except vines running on the structure. It would be a year without fruit, but it puts me into a great position for the future.

Not sure if I should just eyeball dead vs live canes during the winter or just cull them all

These look like a Concord offshoot breed so that is good advice. I can't start trimming for 2 weeks, so by that time it mah be difficult to determine, what to trim.

I could video call you and you say 'cut' or 'no cut'

Nah. The older they are, the thicker they are. It will be obvious what's what. Prioritize the thicker, older branches but otherwise you can trim back pretty indiscriminately.
