    jf plugin uninstall <plugin-name>

    Where:

    • <plugin-name>: Name of the plugin to remove

    For example:

    jf plugin uninstall rt-fs

On success, the command exits with code 0 and produces no output. To confirm removal, verify that ~/.jfrog/plugins/<plugin-name>/ no longer exists (for example, ls ~/.jfrog/plugins/).

Error Cases

  • The plugin's commands become unavailable immediately after uninstallation.
  • Does not affect any data or configurations the plugin may have created.
