Code Documentation Skill
Purpose
This skill provides TSDoc format templates, type documentation guidelines, and maintenance workflows. Use this when:
- •Writing or editing TSDoc comments for any function, type, or module
- •Reviewing documentation quality
- •Creating comprehensive API documentation
- •Documenting complex type structures
- •Cleaning up non-compliant comments (performance notes, timestamps, inline explanations)
- •Synchronizing out-of-sync TSDoc with code changes
- •Removing orphaned documentation for deleted code
Key Standard: No @example sections - tests and stories serve as living examples.
Quick Reference
- •Creating TSDoc: See workflow.md for the generation workflow
- •Maintaining TSDoc: See maintenance.md for cleanup and sync guidelines
This skill contains detailed templates for:
- •Public API Functions
- •Internal Module Documentation
- •Public and Internal Types
- •Helper Functions
- •Behavioral Programming Functions
- •Special Annotations (Security, Performance, Deprecated)
- •Type Documentation (Complex Objects, Unions, Functions, Utilities, Branded Types, etc.)
