+  # How to Use the "Populate External Docs" Command in VSCode Extension
+
+## Step 1: Install and Set Up the Extension
+
+Ensure you have the Dev-Docs VSCode extension installed and properly configured.
+
+## Step 2: Locate the Command
+
+1. Open the Command Palette in VSCode (Cmd+Shift+P on Mac or Ctrl+Shift+P on Windows/Linux).
+2. Type "Dev-Docs: Generate External Docs" to find the command.
+
+## Step 3: Run the Command
+
+Execute the command by selecting it from the Command Palette.
+
+## Step 4: Customize Generation with dev-docs.json
+
+To customize the generation process, you need to modify the `dev-docs.json` file in your project root.
+
+1. Open `dev-docs.json` in your project.
+2. Look for the `ai` section, which controls the AI-based documentation generation.
+
+Example structure:
+
+```json
+{
+  "ai": {
+    "externalDocPrompt": "Custom prompt for external documentation",
+    "docPath": "docs",
+    "branch": "main",
+    "merge": true,
+    "components": {
+      "template": "path/to/component/template.md"
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+## Key Customization Options
+
+1. `externalDocPrompt`: Customize the AI prompt for generating external docs.
+2. `docPath`: Specify the directory where external docs will be saved.
+3. `branch`: Set the Git branch for committing generated docs.
+4. `merge`: Enable/disable merging of documentation for multiple symbols in a file.
+5. `components`: Define custom MDX components for documentation.
+
+## Step 5: Generate Documentation
+
+After customizing `dev-docs.json`, run the "Populate External Docs" command again. The extension will use your settings to generate and save the documentation to a branch of your documentation repo tied to Dev-Docs.
