Document: $ARGUMENTS

Steps

1. Detect the language and doc style

   • Check existing docs in the codebase for style
   • TypeScript/JavaScript → JSDoc or TSDoc
   • Python → Google-style docstrings
   • Go → godoc comments
   • Rust → /// doc comments
   • Match whatever style already exists

2. Read the code thoroughly — understand every function, class, and type

3. Add documentation for:

   Element	What to Document
   Functions	Purpose, params, return value, throws, example
   Classes	Purpose, usage pattern
   Interfaces/Types	What it represents, field descriptions
   Constants	Why this value
   Complex logic	Step-by-step explanation
   Module/File	Top-level description of what this file does

4. Rules

   • Document the WHY, not the WHAT (code already shows what)
   • Keep descriptions concise — one line if possible
   • Include @example for non-obvious usage
   • Don't document getters/setters or trivial functions
   • Match existing doc style in the codebase exactly

5. Verify — ensure no code was accidentally changed

   git diff --stat
