Summary

Ghost Note is a VS Code extension that allows developers to attach private notes, images, videos, and tags directly to code symbols without modifying source code. The tool addresses the problem of code comment clutter in repositories and stale external documentation by providing a way to capture personal notes that survive refactoring and remain hidden from Git version control.
