How do I determine the plugin list for a 'default' scan using the
command line?

The Nessus server enables or disables plugins based on what is sent by the client (eg, listed in the PLUGIN_SET block of your .nessusrc file, in the case of the unix-based commandline client). If a client doesn't mention a plugin, it will be enabled as long as it is a "non-dangerous" plugin.
