Disable tools to prevent agents from taking certain actions. Allow read access but block writes, or disable specific tools entirely.

​
Why disable tools

Tools let agents take actions: create issues, send messages, merge PRs. You might want to:
  • Allow reading GitHub but not merging PRs
  • Let agents draft Slack messages but not send them
  • Disable all write operations during a demo

​
Disable a tool

airstore tools disable github
The tool is no longer visible or executable by agents.

​
Using the dashboard

  1. Open the Airstore dashboard
  2. Go to Tools
  3. Toggle the tool off
Changes propagate to all mounted instances.

​
Enable a tool

airstore tools enable github
Or toggle it on in the dashboard.

​
List tool status

airstore tools list

Tools:
  github    enabled
  linear    enabled
  slack     disabled
  notion    enabled

​
Disable specific commands

Instead of disabling an entire tool, disable specific commands: 
# Allow GitHub but block merging
airstore tools disable github --command=merge-pr

# Allow Slack but block posting
airstore tools disable slack --command=post
List disabled commands: 
airstore tools list --verbose

github:
  create-issue    enabled
  comment         enabled
  merge-pr        disabled
  list-prs        enabled

​
Read-only mode

Disable all write operations across all tools: 
airstore tools readonly
This disables any command that modifies external systems. Read commands remain available. Exit read-only mode: 
airstore tools readonly --off

​
Per-mount permissions

Set different permissions for different mounts: 
# Local mount with full access
airstore mount ~/airstore

# Cloud mount with read-only tools
airstore mount /airstore --token=xxx --tools-readonly

​
Propagation

Permission changes propagate to all mounts using the same account. If you need immediate effect: 
airstore sync --permissions

​
Verification

Check tool status: 
airstore tools status github

Tool: github
Status: enabled
Disabled commands:
  - merge-pr

​
Audit trail

Tool permission changes are logged: 
airstore logs --type=permissions

2024-01-15 10:30:00  tools.disable  github/merge-pr  user=john
2024-01-15 10:35:00  tools.enable   slack            user=john
