devtools::document() is meant to be used within an R **package**, not for a standalone file. Try devtools::create() first.
But at any rate, roxygen format seems to answer your question about how to describe the specifications for a collection of functions written by different people. Translation to .Rd is not essential for this purpose. Create a package, put it on github, and away you go.
