That's pretty much like doxygen comments work, which would look like
this (given that the AUTOBRIEF option is turned on, otherwise you'd
need an additional @brief in the first line):

/** short description of the function.
 * optional longer description of the function
 * @param arg1 description of arg1
 * @param arg2 description of arg2
 * @return description of return valus
 */

So I'd suggest when refactoring also moving to that syntax -- you
could still use your generator, or optionally run doxygen on it. There
are also groups (though I don't remember off the top of my head how
that tag was). As a side note, doxygen also understands tags with
leading \ instead of @ so that could also get used. I, however, prefer
the latter.
