System Documentation
What problem does it solve?
This Skill helps developers capture and communicate the why behind code, focusing on design intent, invariants, and trade-offs to improve maintainability and reduce onboarding time for complex logic.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Why-focused documentation: Generate docstrings that explain purpose, reasoning, and constraints rather than line-by-line behavior.
- Invariant and trade-off clarity: Document non-obvious design choices, invariants, and performance or compatibility considerations.
- Onboarding and maintenance: Produce guidance that helps future contributors understand intent, risks, and expected behavior.
Quick Start
Provide a target function or code block and generate a concise, why-focused docstring explaining design intent and invariants.
