When used as a verb, it's usually spelt with the hyphen — *short-circuit* — as
written here, see [“short-circuit” on Merriam
Webster](https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/short-circuit),
[“short-circuit” on Collin's
Dictionary](https://www.collinsdictionary.com/dictionary/english/short-circuit).
The [“short-circuit” entry on
Wiktionary](https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/short_circuit#Verb) lists the
spelling without the hyphen, however, in notes it is mentioned, <q
cite="https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/short_circuit#Usage_notes";>Senses 3 and 4
usually use the hyphenated spelling **short-circuit**.</q> I think the word is
used in the sense 3.
