Manage long context in debates

For debates with many rounds, you can control how much prior context each expert sees. This prevents responses from becoming repetitive and manages token usage.

Experts see only the most recent turns:

Terminal window
council convene "Long architectural debate" --template architecture-review \
--max-rounds 10 --context-scope recent

Experts only see other responses from the current round:

Terminal window
council convene "Long debate" --template architecture-review \
--max-rounds 10 --context-scope same-round

Prepend a summary after a specified round:

Terminal window
council convene "Long debate" --template architecture-review \
--max-rounds 10 --summarize-after 3
