# dissent config

> Manage providers, routing, and defaults

Subcommands for viewing and testing provider configuration.

## dissent config path

Print the path to the active configuration file.

```bash theme={null}
dissent config path
# ~/.mutual-dissent/config.toml
```

***

## dissent config show

Display the effective configuration — resolved API keys (masked), model aliases, routing mode per model, and current defaults.

```bash theme={null}
dissent config show [OPTIONS]
```

| Option           | Default | Description                                                   |
| ---------------- | ------- | ------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `--check-models` | off     | Fetch context window sizes from OpenRouter (requires network) |

```bash theme={null}
dissent config show
dissent config show --check-models
```

***

## dissent config test

Send a minimal test prompt (`"Say OK"`) to each model in the default panel and synthesizer. Reports routing decisions, provider used, latency, and any errors.

```bash theme={null}
dissent config test
```

Exits with code 0 if all models respond successfully. Exits with code 1 if any model fails — useful in CI or setup validation scripts.

### Example output
