# atmos git hooks uninstall

Remove local `.git/hooks/*` shims previously installed by [`atmos git hooks install`](/cli/commands/git/hooks/install). Uninstall only ever removes shims that Atmos generated (identified by shim content) — user-authored hook scripts are never touched.

## Usage

```shell
atmos git hooks uninstall [hook-name...]
```

## Examples

```shell
# Remove all Atmos-generated hook shims
atmos git hooks uninstall

# Remove specific hooks only
atmos git hooks uninstall pre-commit commit-msg
```

## Behavior

- With no hook names, removes every Atmos-generated shim found in the hooks directory, including shims for hooks that are no longer configured under `git.hooks`.
- A named hook can be removed even after its configuration is deleted. It is an error only if the hook is neither configured under `git.hooks` nor an existing Atmos-generated shim.
- Removes **only** shims generated by Atmos. A hook script that was written or modified by the user is left in place.
- Removing a shim does not change the hook configuration under `git.hooks` in `atmos.yaml` — reinstall at any time with `atmos git hooks install`.

## Arguments

- **`hook-name...` (optional)**

  One or more Git hook names to uninstall. When omitted, all Atmos-generated shims found in the hooks directory are removed, whether or not the hook is still configured. A named hook must be configured or have an existing Atmos-generated shim.
