Python Code Documentation Generator - AI Docs & Docstrings
Generate Python documentation with AI: add comments and docstrings to your code, or create a README, API reference, architecture overview or usage guide — for a single file or an entire project.
Python code documentation, generated — not hand-written
Most AI tools stop at sprinkling comments over a snippet. This documentation generator reads your
Python code the way a new team member would — single file or entire project —
and produces the documentation you actually need: docstrings and comments woven into the code itself,
or standalone Markdown documents (README, API reference, architecture overview, usage guide)
ready to commit to your repository.
Five kinds of documentation, one tool
Pick a type above
Comments & docstrings — your complete code returned with documentation added, in the docstring style you choose (Google, NumPy, reST/Sphinx, JSDoc, Javadoc, Doxygen, XML doc comments) or your language's default.
README.md — what the project does, features, installation, usage with real examples from your code.
API reference — every public class, function and constant: signatures, parameters, returns, errors, examples.
Architecture overview — components, responsibilities and data flow, with a Mermaid diagram.
Usage guide — a step-by-step tutorial for new users of your code.
Document a whole project, not one file at a time
Multi-file aware
Drop a project .zip or a folder into the upload area and it's parsed instantly in your
browser — nothing is uploaded. You get a file tree that auto-skips the junk (node_modules,
binaries, lockfiles) where you tick exactly which files to document, with a live character budget.
The AI treats the selection as one codebase — it infers the project's purpose, entry points and
structure, and documents how the pieces fit together instead of describing each file in isolation.
For the best result
Include the entry point (main, index, app) so the AI understands how the project is used.
Set the depth slider to match your audience — brief for experienced developers, in-depth for onboarding docs.
Use the instructions field for team conventions (tone, sections, what to skip).
Generating several documents? Run once per type — each produces a focused, complete document.
When to turn on Web Access and Agent Mode
These tools provide different kinds of context and verification. Enable them when they improve the task.
Web Access
Use for current docs
Enable Web Access when the task depends on current documentation, an external API, or a third-party package—especially a new, niche, or less familiar library.
For the best result
Paste the official documentation URL into your prompt.
Name the package and version you intend to use.
Ask the model to follow the linked API instead of relying on memory.
For multiple sources, say which source is authoritative.
Example: “Use version 4.x and follow the official documentation at https://docs.example.com/.”
Agent Mode
Use for automatic checks
Turn on Agent Mode when you want the model to run the code, execute tests, reproduce an error, or compare the result with an expected output.
Particularly useful for
Algorithms with testable inputs and outputs.
Parsing, data transformation, and numerical tasks.
Debugging a reproducible error.
Checking that dependencies install and tests pass.
Credit note: Running and iterating on code may consume more credits than a single response alone. Leave execution off when you only need a small snippet you can inspect yourself.
Compare the current code with the previous version. You can edit the old code
using the Edit Old Code button.
Fetching previous code, please wait...

// 3. Hide the old-code editor container at first
document.getElementById("oldCodeEditorContainer").style.display = "none";
editorVisible = false; // If you're tracking the toggle in a global or outer variable
// 4. Retrieve the new & old codes
let newCode = getCodeBlocks(accumulatedMarkdown);
// 5. remove first line & last line (```python and ```)
newCode = newCode.replace(/^```[\s\S]*?\n/, "").replace(/\n```$/, "");
let oldCode = localStorage.getItem(`text-${path}`);
cachedNewCode = newCode;
cachedOldCode = oldCode;
if(!oldCode) {
// Just show a no-code message and return
codeDiffContainer.innerHTML = "
No previous code found.
";
cachedOldCode = "No previous code found.";
}
// 6. Render the diff
renderDiff(cachedOldCode, cachedNewCode);
// 7. update oldCodeEditor with the old code
const oldCodeEditor = document.getElementById("oldCodeEditor");
oldCodeEditor.value = oldCode;
