Description
Disable a community skill installed through the hub without removing its files. Use when the user wants to temporarily quiet a community skill ("disable [skill]"), stop its hooks from firing while keeping its config, or re-enable a previously disabled skill.
SKILL.md
/disable
Run the disable workflow from the skill-manager reference skill against the
named skill.
What disable does:
- Renames the skill's
SKILL.mdtoSKILL.md.disabledso Claude no longer discovers it as an active skill. Files, references, templates, and config stay in place. - If the skill ships hooks in
hooks/hooks.json, also rename that file tohooks.json.disabledso no automatic triggers fire while the skill is disabled. - Logs the action to
~/.claude/plugins/config/claude-for-legal/legal-builder-hub/install-log.yaml.
Safety rules:
- Only disable community skills installed through this hub. Same check as uninstall — consult the install log and CLAUDE.md installed table.
- Never disable a first-party plugin's skill. Off-limits.
- Confirm before renaming. Show the paths, get explicit
yes.
Re-enable by running the command again with the same skill name — the skill-manager workflow recognizes a disabled skill and flips the rename back.
Detailed uninstall, disable, and re-enable workflows live in the
skill-managerreference skill — load it before doing substantive work.
