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.)

Navigation

• workflow.md - TSDoc generation workflow (4 phases)
• maintenance.md - Comment policy, sync tasks, orphaned doc handling
• public-api-templates.md - Templates for public-facing APIs
• internal-templates.md - Templates for internal code and modules
• type-documentation.md - Comprehensive type documentation templates

Related Skills

• typescript-lsp: Use for type verification and discovery during documentation workflow. Essential for Phase 1 (type analysis) and Phase 2 (usage discovery) of the TSDoc generation process. Run lsp-hover to verify signatures, lsp-references to find usages, and lsp-symbols to understand file structure.
