About
The comment-gen skill automatically adds meaningful inline comments to complex code by explaining the reasoning (the WHY) rather than just restating the logic. It's designed for situations where existing documentation is lacking and supports multiple verbosity levels for different audiences. Developers can use it via a simple CLI command to enhance code understanding while preserving original formatting.
