Have you tried threats?

I did not, but I'm curious if this would actually work.

It strips the comments from the code or else it gets the hose again.

I tried this as well. I'm interfacing with Gemini 2.5 using Cursor and I have rules to to limit the comments. It still ends up over-commenting.

I have a feeling this may be a cursor issue, perhaps cursors system prompt asks for comments? Asking in the aistudio UI for code and ending the prompt with "no code comments" has always worked for me
