zi cdisable

Summary

Disable a specific installed completion without uninstalling it. The completion file remains on disk but is removed from the active $fpath symlinks.

Syntax / Usage

zi cdisable {cname}

{cname} is the completion name, typically the filename without the leading underscore (e.g., git for _git).

Details

Removes the symlink for the named completion from $ZINIT[COMPLETIONS_DIR] (the directory in $fpath), making it invisible to compinit. The source file in the plugin directory is untouched. The completion can be re-enabled at any time with zi cenable. This lets you selectively suppress one completion without removing the whole plugin or running cuninstall.

Examples

# Disable the _git completion
zi cdisable git

# Disable the _docker completion
zi cdisable docker
