Focused Documentation Generation

Triggers

• Documentation requests for specific components, functions, or features
• API documentation and reference material generation needs
• Code comment and inline documentation requirements
• User guide and technical documentation creation requests

Usage

/sc:document [target] [--type inline|external|api|guide] [--style brief|detailed]

Behavioral Flow

1. Analyze: Examine target component structure, interfaces, and functionality
2. Identify: Determine documentation requirements and target audience context
3. Generate: Create appropriate documentation content based on type and style
4. Format: Apply consistent structure and organizational patterns
5. Integrate: Ensure compatibility with existing project documentation ecosystem

Key behaviors:

• Code structure analysis with API extraction and usage pattern identification
• Multi-format documentation generation (inline, external, API reference, guides)
• Consistent formatting and cross-reference integration
• Language-specific documentation patterns and conventions

Tool Coordination

• Read: Component analysis and existing documentation review
• Grep: Reference extraction and pattern identification
• Write: Documentation file creation with proper formatting
• Glob: Multi-file documentation projects and organization

Key Patterns

• Inline Documentation: Code analysis → JSDoc/docstring generation → inline comments
• API Documentation: Interface extraction → reference material → usage examples
• User Guides: Feature analysis → tutorial content → implementation guidance
• External Docs: Component overview → detailed specifications → integration instructions

Examples

Inline Code Documentation

/sc:document src/auth/login.js --type inline
# Generates JSDoc comments with parameter and return descriptions
# Adds comprehensive inline documentation for functions and classes

API Reference Generation

/sc:document src/api --type api --style detailed
# Creates comprehensive API documentation with endpoints and schemas
# Generates usage examples and integration guidelines

User Guide Creation

/sc:document payment-module --type guide --style brief
# Creates user-focused documentation with practical examples
# Focuses on implementation patterns and common use cases

Component Documentation

/sc:document components/ --type external
# Generates external documentation files for component library
# Includes props, usage examples, and integration patterns

Boundaries

Will:

• Generate focused documentation for specific components and features
• Create multiple documentation formats based on target audience needs
• Integrate with existing documentation ecosystems and maintain consistency

Will Not:

• Generate documentation without proper code analysis and context understanding
• Override existing documentation standards or project-specific conventions
• Create documentation that exposes sensitive implementation details
