Subcommands

show — Display Current Configuration

1. Read .claude/crew-config.json (if exists, otherwise show defaults)
2. Display:

Config: Mode={full|lite} | Auto-Index={on|off} | History={count}
Budgets: Opus {t}tk/{s}sk | Sonnet {t}tk/{s}sk | Sonnet-planner {t}tk/{s}sk | Haiku {t}tk/{s}sk
Model overrides: {none | list}
Agent overrides: {none | list}

set <key> <value> — Update a Setting

Supported keys:

Key	Values	Example
mode	full, lite	/crew config set mode lite
auto-index	true, false	/crew config set auto-index false
history-limit	number	/crew config set history-limit 100
agent.<name>.model	opus, sonnet, haiku	/crew config set agent.senior-dev.model opus
agent.<name>.active	true, false	/crew config set agent.security-analyst.active true
budget.<tier>	number (tokens)	/crew config set budget.sonnet 2500

Process:

1. Read existing .claude/crew-config.json (or start with defaults)
2. Validate the key and value
3. Apply the change
4. Write back to .claude/crew-config.json
5. Confirm: "Set {key} = {value}"

Validation rules:

• mode: must be full or lite
• agent.<name>.model: agent must exist in crew-team.json
• budget.<tier>: must be a positive number, max 5000
• Warn if user sets a Haiku agent to Opus (expensive, possible but discouraged)
