Consilium-Principis — connect the server (onboarding)

Important, read first. This markdown skill is a funnel, not the product. The advisor logic — the fidelity contour (🔵 verbatim / 🟢 commentary / 🟡 extrapolation / 📐 calculation), fail-closed abstention, the quote gate, the council choreography, and every tool — lives in a local MCP server (scripts/mcp_server.py), not in this file. Installed on its own via npx skills add, this skill has no tools to call yet. Its whole job is to get you to the server.

Do not fabricate advisor answers or pretend the tools exist. If the MCP server is not connected, say so and walk the user through connecting it.
