Show Configuration (no arguments)

Execute using Bash tool:

# Resolve path to council_utils.sh
if [[ -n "${COUNCIL_PLUGIN_ROOT:-}" ]]; then
    UTILS_PATH="${COUNCIL_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/council-orchestrator/scripts/council_utils.sh"
elif [[ -n "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT:-}" ]]; then
    UTILS_PATH="${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/council-orchestrator/scripts/council_utils.sh"
elif [[ -n "${CLAUDE_PROJECT_DIR:-}" ]]; then
    UTILS_PATH="${CLAUDE_PROJECT_DIR}/skills/council-orchestrator/scripts/council_utils.sh"
else
    # Try standard installation locations
    for candidate in \
        "$HOME/.claude/plugins/cache/llm-council-plugin/skills/council-orchestrator/scripts/council_utils.sh" \
        "$HOME/.claude/plugins/llm-council-plugin/skills/council-orchestrator/scripts/council_utils.sh"; do
        if [[ -f "$candidate" ]]; then
            UTILS_PATH="$candidate"
            break
        fi
    done
fi

# Verify path exists
if [[ -z "${UTILS_PATH:-}" ]] || [[ ! -f "$UTILS_PATH" ]]; then
    echo "❌ Error: Cannot locate council utilities"
    echo "Please set COUNCIL_PLUGIN_ROOT to your plugin installation path."
    exit 1
