Disable

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.

File contents

/strategy-builder-hub:disable

When to use

Temporarily disable community skill — rename SKILL.md and hooks so discovery/triggers stop; files remain for re-enable.

What this skill does not do

Does not touch first-party plugin skills.
Does not delete files — use /strategy-builder-hub:uninstall for removal.
Does not act without explicit yes.

Preconditions

Input	If missing
Skill name	Ask
Install log entry (community, installed)	Refuse if not hub-installed
Load `skill-manager` reference	Required before substantive work

Provisional mode

N/A — confirm-before-rename always.

Trust spine

Governance-tracking; install-log.yaml audit trail; built-in plugin refusal.

Workflow

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-strategy/strategy-builder-hub/install-log.yaml.

Safety rules:

Only disable community skills installed through this hub.
Never disable a first-party plugin's skill.
Confirm before renaming. Show the paths, get explicit yes.

Re-enable by running the command again with the same skill name.

Detailed workflows live in the skill-manager reference skill — load it before doing substantive work.

Worked example

Input: disable competitor-scan — community skill in install log.

Expected output: Paths shown; user confirms yes; SKILL.md → SKILL.md.disabled; log appended.

Propose profile update

When a stable convention surfaces during this run (thresholds, naming, tone, output format, or recurring corrections), propose a profile update: show the exact diff against ~/.claude/plugins/config/claude-for-strategy/strategy-builder-hub/CLAUDE.md (org-wide facts go to org-profile.md), ask for confirmation, and write only on yes. Only /strategy-builder-hub:practice-setup auto-applies a full profile write.

Outputs

Follows plugin CLAUDE.md § Outputs. Next: re-enable same command, or uninstall if permanent removal needed.
