Only being half ironic with this. I generally find that people somehow magically manage to understand how to be materially helpful when the subject is a helpless LLM. Instead of pointing it to a random KB page, they give it context. They then shorten that context. They then interleave context as comments. They provide relevant details. They go out of their way to collect relevant details. Things they somehow don't do for their actual colleagues.
This only gets worse when the LLM captures all that information better than certain human colleagues somehow, rewarding the additional effort.
This is a good goal. You should strive to make the code explain itself. To write code that does not need comments.
You will fail to reach that goal most of the time.
And when you fail to reach that goal, write the dang comments explaining why the code is the way that it is.
Agent is not going to know to look for a file to update unless instructed. Now your file is out of sync. Code comments keeping everything line of sight makes it easy and foolproof.
That's revealing waaaay more than the agent needs to know.
I think a big question is whether one wants your agent to know the reason for all the reasons for guidelines you issue or whether you want the agent to just follow the guidelines you issue. Especially, giving an agent the argument for your orders might make the agent think that can question and so not follow those arguments.
Comments are ultimately so you can understand stuff without having to read all the code. LLMs are great when you force them to read all code, and comments only serve to confuse. I'd say the opposite been true in my experience, if you're not forcing LLMs to not have any comments at all (and it can actually skip those, looking at you Gemini), you're doing agent coding wrong.
