+  # Using the "Generate High Level Context for the Folder" Command
+
+## Overview
+
+The "Generate High Level Context for the Folder" command is a powerful feature in Dev-Docs that allows you to automatically generate high-level documentation for an entire folder in your project. This guide will walk you through how to use this command and customize its behavior using the `dev-docs.json` configuration file.
+
+## Step-by-Step Guide
+
+### 1. Right-Click on a Folder
+In your VS Code file explorer, right-click on the folder you want to document.
+
+### 2. Select the Command
+From the context menu, choose "Generate High Level Context for the Folder".
+
+### 3. Wait for Processing
+The extension will analyze the folder contents and generate documentation. This may take a moment depending on the folder size and complexity.
+
+### 4. Review Generated Documentation
+Once complete, a new Markdown file will be created in your `dev-docs` folder, containing the high-level context for the selected folder.
+
+## Customizing with dev-docs.json
+
+You can customize the behavior of this command by modifying the `dev-docs.json` file in your project root. Here are some key configurations:
+
+### 1. Customizing the Context Prompt
+
+```json
+{
+  "ai": {
+    "contextPrompt": "your_custom_prompt_here"
+  }
+}
+```
+
+This allows you to specify a custom prompt for generating the context. You can also use a Markdown file for more complex prompts:
+
+```json
+{
+  "ai": {
+    "contextPrompt": "dev-docs/prompt.md"
+  }
+}
+```
+
+### 2. Specifying Context Directories
+
+```json
+{
+  "ai": {
+    "contextDirs": ["src", "lib", "utils"]
+  }
+}
+```
+
+This limits the context generation to specific directories, which is useful for large projects.
