I couldn't find any mod for that, except this outdated one:
https://mods.factorio.com/mod/dont-touch-my-ghost

Also, I saw a suggestion on the same topic from 2017, but don't know if it was completed.

I wonder if it's really possible to stop the robots from building at the moment.
If someone knows a mod or practical trick please let me know :P

Well you can turn of your personal bots.
Otherwise maybe use a blueprint they can't build yet - like use level 3 assemblers, blue belts etc and use an up(down)grade planner when you want them to build?

It limits the gameplay too much for me. My best idea is to don't store any items in the logistic system, I only put them if I want to build something. I thought about writing a suggestion for this.
