Disable and Enable Skills

Hide a skill from the generated target without deleting the real source folder.

Disable a skill

skill-organizer skill disable my-skills/coding-skills/astro-performance-auditor

This updates metadata.skill-organizer.disabled in the source SKILL.md and then runs sync so the generated target entry disappears.

Re-enable it later

skill-organizer skill enable my-skills/coding-skills/astro-performance-auditor

The skill stays in the organized source tree the entire time. Only the tool-facing target view changes.

Why this is better than deleting

Disabling preserves history, frontmatter, and folder placement. It is the right choice when you want to temporarily hide a skill from your tools without losing the curated source structure.
