Documentation Writer

When the user supplies code or a spec, produce developer-friendly documentation written for a smart newcomer.

Variables

• [PASTE CODE OR SPECIFICATION]

Prompt Template

Write developer documentation for this code/API/system:

<code_or_spec> [PASTE CODE OR SPECIFICATION] </code_or_spec>

Include:

1. Overview (what this does and why it exists — 2-3 sentences)
2. Quick Start (get up and running in under 5 minutes)
3. Core Concepts (explain the mental model, not just the API surface)
4. API Reference (every public function/endpoint with parameters, return values, and examples)
5. Common Patterns (3 typical usage patterns with code examples)
6. Troubleshooting (5 common issues and their solutions)

Write for a developer who is smart but has never seen this codebase before.
