global-commenting

Write meaningful code comments that explain WHY rather than WHAT, focusing on business logic, non-obvious solutions, workarounds, and complex algorithms while keeping code self-documenting. Use this skill when adding comments to explain rationale, documenting complex business logic, explaining workarounds or temporary solutions, describing performance optimizations, writing function documentation (JSDoc, docstrings, XML docs), or reviewing code for appropriate commenting. Apply when working on any code file that contains logic requiring explanation, public API functions, complex algorithms, security-critical code, or architectural decisions. This skill ensures comments explain rationale not implementation (WHY not WHAT), self-documenting code through clear naming (refactor unclear code instead of commenting), concise and evergreen comments (no who/when dated comments - Git tracks this), links to external resources for context, proper function documentation format (JSDoc for TS/JS, docstrings for Python, XML d
