name	write phpdocs
description	Write PHP DocBlocks with PHPStan support. DO NOT modify any code — only add/update documentation.

Rules

1. DO NOT change or modify any code — only add DocBlocks, comments, and reorder methods.
2. DO NOT Verbose docblocks - Keep concise, one line is ideal

File & Class Level

• File DocBlock (PSR-12): @package, @since, @version
• Class DocBlock: @name, description, @phpstan-use, @method — never use @extend
• Add @example with 1-2 usages example for class.

Methods

• DocBlock with @param, @return, and @since with single line description
• Use git log -S "method_name" to find when it was introduced
• Add @since annotation with that version
• Add @see where methods relate to each other
• PHPStan annotations (@template, @var) must support IDE autocompletion (PHPStorm etc.)
• Name hook callback methods: handle_{hook_name}
• Add @example with 1-2 usages example for public methods.

Hooks & Translations

• Inline comment for add_action() / add_filter() declarations
• Description of when the hook fires for do_action() / apply_filters()
• @param tags for each parameter passed to the hook
• Add /* translators: ... */ comments before translation strings (esc_html__, esc_html_e) wrapped in sprintf/printf
• Use git log -S "hook_name" to find when it was introduced
• Add @since annotation with that version

Method Organization

Group methods into logical sections with header comments like:

// =====================================================================
// Service Lifecycle Methods
// =====================================================================

// =====================================================================
// Service Provider Registration Methods
// =====================================================================

// =====================================================================
