About
Clacks Overhead is a feature based on the concept of semaphore towers from the Discworld fantasy book series written by Sir Terry Pratchett, an English author and humorist.
It was devised by 
Reddit users and allows websites to broadcast a message to the world via the non-standard X-Clacks-Overhead HTTP header. This message is usually dedicated to the memory of Terry Pratchett, reading "GNU Terry Pratchett", though it can contain any text.
JSDoc tags are annotations in 
JavaScript comments beginning with the '@' symbol that are parsed by the JSDoc tool to produce structured API documentation.
They document parameters, return values, types, classes, modules, and cross-references, and are often stripped from production bundles.
