Global Commenting

When to use this skill

  • When deciding whether code needs comments or can be made self-explanatory through better naming
  • When writing comments for complex algorithms or business logic that isn't immediately obvious
  • When removing temporal comments like "fixed bug yesterday" or "TODO: refactor later"
  • When reviewing existing comments to ensure they're still accurate and evergreen
  • When explaining WHY code makes a particular decision rather than WHAT it does
  • When documenting large sections of code logic with concise, helpful summaries
  • When avoiding redundant comments that just restate what the code obviously does
  • When refactoring code to eliminate the need for explanatory comments through clarity
  • When adding comments to configuration files explaining non-obvious settings
  • When documenting workarounds for third-party library quirks or platform limitations
  • When ensuring comments will remain relevant months or years into the future
