Okay, this get's a little complicated. I first heard it used to mean something along the lines of "to add insult to injury."
Here are some similar examples I found online:
[1]請假顧生病兒被刁難公司補刀:你兒子不可能平安長大
[2]最後允許請事假卻補刀,「1年事假只有14 ...]
[3]花2700買名牌竟是二手貨? 網友補刀:好市多只要679元
[4]廣西斥資70億醫院被酸像馬桶網友狠補刀:還有衛生紙呢

I only found this later so I'm adding it here:

补刀是指在对话和跟帖中,用一种非常规式思路来回答对方的问题,从而达到一种打击对方或引起冷笑话效果的说话方式。在网络用语中被用作形容语言攻击。比喻一件事物已经破败不堪,却又进行了再一次的攻击。补刀两字前常加神字,被称神补刀。

but apparently it all originates from DOTA2

补刀又称补兵,是以dota为例的一类游戏术语,指的是抢最后一次攻击杀死小兵的技术。
外文名 Last hit

https://dota2.gamepedia.com/Creep_control_techniques#Last-hitting
Last-hitting is a technique where you (or a creep under your control) get the 'last hit' on a neutral creep, enemy lane creep, or enemy hero. The hero that dealt the killing blow to the enemy unit will be awarded a bounty.

GR also gives:
(Sigill.) Corrections apportées à un sceau (après en avoir tiré une première empreinte). Corriger le premier état d’un sceau.

my friend also insists that 神补刀 = perfect kill, if that helps at all.

Grand Ricci-type example:
每次,他放下刻刀,打完印拓,从不再补刀。
Diff:
# 補刀 补刀 [bu3 dao1] /(gaming) last hit/(neologism) to pour salt in the wound/(old) to fix a seal/
+ 補刀 补刀 [bu3 dao1] /(gaming) to finish off a wounded combatant/(fig.) to attack sb who is already under fire/to pile on/(sphragistics) to retouch a seal after taking a first impression/
