the informations can be expressed by attaching a reserved tag in the docstring of the schema file.

type Query {
    """
    @req
    ```graphql
        query GetGuestCart($input: GetCartByGuestInput!) {
            guestCart(input: $input) {
                items {
                    _id
                    name
                    quantity
                }
                total
            }
        }
    ```
    """
    guestCart(input: GetCartByGuestInput!): GetCartPayload!
}

@res

The @res tag inside the docstring is shown as a block of code in the paragraph "Response"

type Query {
    """
    @res
    ```json
    {
        "data:: {
            "items": {
                ...
            }
        }
    }
    ```
    """
    guestCart(input: GetCartByGuestInput!): GetCartPayload!
}

@desc

The @desc tag adds a description just below the resolver name.

type Query {
    """
    @desc Gets the list of customer's cart items
    """
    guestCart(input: GetCartByGuestInput!): GetCartPayload!
}
