OpenAPI/Swagger comment parser for ruby
This gem takes directives in your controllers and can output swagger.json. It takes some work but it is nice that it can provide examples by capturing test output and because of this it doesn't get out of date as easily. https://github.com/Apipie/apipie-rails

I spent the past 3 months working on a fork of the Annotate models gem

What was the name of the gem that finds all unindexed foreign keys?
A gem that's pretty useful alongside this one is the annotation gem -- it prefixes models with their specific schema dump (as comments) and then updates those descriptive comments on migration. It's one of my go-to gems to install when I rotate onto a new-to-me Rails project (or start a new one) and I'm working to understand the data model.

I get it, though. Sounds like you're used to seeing every column definition in there. And that would be handy. There is a gem that you might like: https://github.com/ctran/annotate_models
