description: Toggle the wrapper's local 'enabled' flag for a named profiler module. Bookkeeping only — Unity's runtime API does not expose direct module control; for real module visibility use the Profiler window.

# Profiler / Enable Module

Adds or removes the given module name from the wrapper's `EnabledModules` set. This is local bookkeeping consumed by `profiler-get-status` and `profiler-list-modules`; Unity's runtime API does not allow programmatic toggling of Profiler-window modules from a built-in namespace, so this tool intentionally does not pretend to.

## Inputs

- `moduleName` (required) — one of the names returned by `profiler-list-modules`.
- `enabled` (default `true`) — set to `false` to mark the module disabled.

## Errors

- Returns an `[Error]` string when `moduleName` is empty or unknown.

## How to Call

```bash
unity-mcp-cli run-tool profiler-enable-module --input '{
  "moduleName": "string_value",
  "enabled": false
}'
```

> For complex input (multi-line strings, code), save the JSON to a file and use:
> ```bash
> unity-mcp-cli run-tool profiler-enable-module --input-file args.json
> ```
>
> Or pipe via stdin (recommended):
> ```bash
> unity-mcp-cli run-tool profiler-enable-module --input-file - <<'EOF'
> {"param": "value"}
> EOF
> ```


### Troubleshooting

If `unity-mcp-cli` is not found, either install it globally (`npm install -g unity-mcp-cli`) or use `npx unity-mcp-cli` instead.
Read the /unity-initial-setup skill for detailed installation instructions.

## Input

| Name | Type | Required | Description |
|------|------|----------|-------------|
| `moduleName` | `string` | Yes | Profiler module name (e.g. 'CPU', 'GPU', 'Memory'). |
| `enabled` | `boolean` | No | True to mark the module enabled in local bookkeeping; false to mark disabled. |
