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.

AI-generated overview

Temporarily disables a community skill by renaming its SKILL.md and hooks file, keeping all files in place.

What it does: This skill runs a disable workflow from the skill-manager reference skill against a named community skill. It renames the skill's SKILL.md to SKILL.md.disabled so the agent no longer discovers it, and renames hooks/hooks.json to hooks.json.disabled if the skill ships hooks, leaving files, references, templates and config intact. It logs the action to an install log and can re-enable a previously disabled skill by running the command again.
When to use it: Use it when a user wants to temporarily quiet a community skill, stop its hooks from firing while keeping its configuration, or re-enable a skill that was disabled earlier. It applies only to community skills installed through the hub, not first-party plugin skills.
Requirements: Instructions only; no scripts are shipped. It depends on the skill-manager reference skill, which must be loaded before substantive work, and on the hub's install log and CLAUDE.md installed table for eligibility checks. It writes to a log file under the user's Claude plugins config directory.

/disable

Run the disable workflow from the skill-manager reference skill against the named skill.

What disable does:

Renames the skill's SKILL.md to SKILL.md.disabled so 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 to hooks.json.disabled so 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-manager reference skill — load it before doing substantive work.
