Steps

•
Run esperkit config check. If it exits non-zero, tell the user to run /esper:init first and stop.
•
Run the backlog display subcommand:
bash
```
esperkit backlog
```
Print the output verbatim. Shows ACTIVE, PENDING, and DONE (last 3) sections.
•
Run esperkit config get backlog_mode. If the output is github, also run:
bash
```
gh issue list --state open --json number,title,labels
```
Cross-reference open issues with: the current phase file's gh_issue field (parent issue), and all plan files' gh_issue fields (sub-issues of the phase). Flag any open GitHub issues that have no matching phase or plan.
