Python Documentation & Comment Expert FAQs

Question 1

Can it help me manage TODOs and technical debt?

Accepted Answer

Yes, it identifies 'Debt' comments (Type 8) and helps you decide whether to resolve the issue immediately or track it in your project management system.

Question 2

Which docstring styles does this skill support?

Accepted Answer

By default, it uses the Google docstring style, but it is designed to detect and match your project's existing style, including NumPy and Sphinx.

Question 3

Will it add comments to every line of code?

Accepted Answer

No. The skill follows the principle that comments should explain 'why' rather than 'what.' It specifically avoids adding trivial comments that simply restate what the code is doing.

Question 4

How does the Audit mode work?

Accepted Answer

Audit mode scans your file to classify every existing comment into one of nine types. It then generates a report highlighting documentation gaps, quality issues, and 'negative' comments that should be removed.

Question 5

Does it work with Python type hints?

Accepted Answer

Yes. It is context-aware of PEP 484 type hints and ensures that docstrings focus on semantic meaning rather than redundantly repeating type information.
