If you’re unfamiliar with Javascript and Discourse this won’t be easy, but here’s how I’d go about it: There’s a plugin outlet called `topic-title` that you can use to add content at the top of a topic. You can add the navigation from the [d-navigation template](https://github.com/discourse/discourse/blob/master/app/assets/javascripts/discourse/app/templates/components/d-navigation.hbs) there… but you’ll also need some custom JS to pass the right parameters in, because some aren’t readily available on the topic page by default.
