New helper
ai-code--get-function-name-for-comment: When cursor is on a comment line, looks ahead to the next non-comment code line and returns the more specific function context. Handles common delimiters (.,#,::) and edge cases (nil values, EOF, multiple comment lines).Updated
ai-code-implement-todo: Calls helper whenis-commentis true instead of directly callingwhich-function.Tests: Added
test_ai-code-change.elcovering basic detection, edge cases, and multi-language comment syntax.Language-agnostic and backward-compatible—only affects behavior when cursor is on a comment line.
