# How to make comments in an Overleaf LaTeX project

## Commenting: feature overview

The Comment feature is available in all Overleaf accounts, free and paid, and this article shows how to use it. To read about Overleaf’s Track Changes features, available to paid accounts, you can find further information in the article [Track Changes in Overleaf](/latex/knowledge-base/136-track-changes-in-overleaf.md).

We provide three short video clips to demonstrate commenting:

* [The basics](#video-the-basics): A 30-second video which shows how to access Overleaf's commenting feature
* [Using comments](#video-using-comments): A 1 minute video which shows a single user adding, editing, archiving (resolving) and deleting comments
* [Collaborative commenting](#video-collaborative-commenting): This 2 minute video shows 2 fictitious users called Ivor Question and Alison Carefully. Ivor invited Alison to his project and they exchange comments in a thread to resolve an issue in the project.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://overleaf-pro.ayaka.space/latex/knowledge-base/074-how-to-make-comments-in-an-overleaf-latex-project.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
