Has anyone been using AI to write documentation for a workspace? 

I’ve found that some models are really good a looking over a codebase and putting together a readme for example. 

I’ve been experimenting with with workspaces and have also had pretty good results with copilot inside visual studio. 

would be great to have an AI Assist button inside the Help section in workbench.

But that would explain the “what” of the workspace, not the “why”, which I think is way more important.

Yeah, I was more thinking about a how-to (parameters and descriptions) and a what. Then you have a nice skeleton where you can add the why and limitations etc etc.

Having to write out a lot of the stuff already in a workspace does take up a lot of time. Also formatting the markdown.

Agreed, I (try to) put lots of ‘why’ in bookmarks explaining why I’m doing something a certain way. If bookmarks could be taken into account when summarising the workspace that would be helpful
