Groups

Anything you register (aliases, triggers, timers, hooks, binds, bars, slash commands) can carry a group. A group is a master switch: an item fires only if it is enabled and its group is enabled.

rune.trigger.contains("attacks you", "flee", { group = "coward" })
rune.alias.exact("cower", "hide",           { group = "coward" })
rune.timer.every(5, "peek",                 { group = "coward" })

/group coward off      -- everything above goes quiet
/group coward on       -- and comes back, individual states preserved
/groups                -- list groups and their state

From Lua: rune.group.enable/disable/is_enabled(name), and rune.group.list() returns an array of {name, enabled}.

Patterns

Mode switches. A combat mode that arms spell-up triggers, or a quiet mode that gags channels. Bind them to keys:

rune.bind("f2", function()
    if rune.group.is_enabled("spellup") then
        rune.group.disable("spellup")
    else
        rune.group.enable("spellup")
    end
    rune.ui.refresh_bars()
end)

Bulk removal. The alias, trigger, timer, hooks, binds, and bars registries can each drop a whole group with rune.trigger.remove_group("quest-xyz") and the equivalents. Useful when a script builds temporary registrations.

Gotchas

Group toggles don’t touch individual enabled/disabled states: disable one trigger inside an enabled group and it stays disabled when the group cycles.
A disabled bind swallows its key rather than letting it through to typing, so disabling a group of binds mutes those keys entirely.
