SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

It prevents risky or unintended removal of skills by ensuring only eligible community skills installed via the legal-builder-hub are uninstalled, with explicit confirmation and an audit trail.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Community-only uninstall protection: Verifies the target skill is recorded as installed in the hub’s install log and starter pack table, refusing if not found.
  • First-party plugin safeguard: Refuses to uninstall any of the core/first-party skills that ship with Claude for Legal.
  • Safe deletion with confirmation: Lists every file path that will be deleted and proceeds only when the user explicitly confirms with yes.
  • Auditable action logging: Appends an uninstall entry with timestamp to install-log.yaml to maintain traceability.
  • Operates via skill-manager workflow: Runs the uninstall workflow from the skill-manager reference skill against the named skill.

Quick Start

Run uninstall for the community skill you want removed by typing: uninstall [skill-name] and confirm by replying yes when shown the deletion paths.

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I safely uninstall community skills from the legal-builder-hub?

Uninstalling community skills safely requires verifying the install log, enumerating all targeted delete paths, and requiring explicit yes confirmation before removing files. This prevents accidental deletion and maintains configuration cleanup integrity.

Can I remove first-party plugins that ship with Claude for Legal?

No, the uninstall process refuses to remove first-party plugins that ship with Claude for Legal. This safeguard prevents accidental deletion of core skills and ensures only eligible community-installed plugins are targeted.

What happens if a community skill is not found in the install log?

If the target skill is not recorded in the hub's install log or starter pack table, the uninstall process refuses to proceed. This ensures only verified community skills are removed and prevents unauthorized deletions.

Does uninstalling a skill leave an audit trail?

Yes, uninstalling a skill appends a timestamped entry to install-log.yaml to maintain traceability. This audit logging records the removal action, ensuring compliance tracking and historical accountability for configuration cleanup.

What is the difference between disabling a skill and fully uninstalling it?

Full uninstall deletes all associated file paths after explicit confirmation, whereas disabling retains files. Uninstall targets scenarios needing complete removal of outdated community automation rather than temporary deactivation, ensuring thorough configuration cleanup.

When should I not use the community skill uninstall tool?

You should not use this tool to remove first-party skills, as the system refuses to uninstall them. It is also unsuitable if the target community skill is not recorded in the hub's install log, as verification will fail and block deletion.
