name: sc-document description: Generate focused documentation for components, functions, APIs, and features. Use when creating inline docs, API references, user guides, or technical documentation.

Documentation Generation Skill

Focused documentation for code, APIs, and features.

Quick Start

# Inline documentation
/sc:document src/auth/login.js --type inline

# API reference
/sc:document src/api --type api --style detailed

# User guide
/sc:document payment-module --type guide

Behavioral Flow

1. Analyze - Examine component structure and functionality
2. Identify - Determine documentation requirements and audience
3. Generate - Create appropriate documentation content
4. Format - Apply consistent structure and patterns
5. Integrate - Ensure compatibility with existing docs

Flags

Flag	Type	Default	Description
--type	string	inline	inline, external, api, guide
--style	string	detailed	brief, detailed
