# Lesser-used Commands

The **Lesser used** context-menu toggle marks quiet commands so they can be tucked out of the main command list without deleting or disabling them.

## How it works

When the lesser-used group is collapsed and no sidebar filter is active, Solo hides commands marked **Lesser used** only if they are not currently running. Running lesser-used commands stay visible so you can see and control active work.

While a sidebar filter is active, the collapsed state does not suppress lesser-used commands; matching marked commands can appear in the filtered results.

Expanding the lesser-used affordance shows the hidden commands again.

## Notes

- Lesser-used is a local command setting stored by process ID.
- The toggle is command-only. Terminals and agents cannot be marked lesser-used.
- Hiding a command this way does not affect start, stop, restart, [auto-start](./auto-start.md), [auto-restart](./auto-restart.md), [file watching](./file-watch-auto-restart.md), or [trust behavior](./trust-security.md).
