An script with xdotool might suffice since it can map/unmap, resize.
cf. the following script for map/unmap based on wm name:

wm_name="$1"
tf="${HOME}/.wm-unmapped-${wm_name}"

[[ ! -e $tf ]] && {
        xdotool search $wm_name windowunmap
        touch $tf
        exit 0
}

xdotool search $wm_name windowmap
xdotool search $wm_name windowraise
xdotool search $wm_name windowsize 100% 100% windowmove 0 0
rm $tf
