changed the title
WC-Generator is no longer the supported way to scaffold Auro web components. Component tooling (build, docs, CEM output) now runs through auro-cli, and new-component scaffolding is moving there too. Add a deprecation banner to the README and an AGENTS.md so both humans and AI coding assistants are steered to auro-cli instead of creating new components here.

Summary
Repurposed: this PR previously added Custom Elements Manifest generation to the component template. That work is now redundant — component CEM output already runs through auro-cli's docs pipeline (the
devbranch runs the custom-elements-manifest analyzer + cem-sorter). WC-Generator itself is no longer the supported way to scaffold Auro components.This PR now marks WC-Generator as deprecated so both humans and AI coding assistants stop using it for new components.
Changes
README.md— deprecation banner at the top: not the supported scaffolding path, not actively maintained, contact the Auro team before creating a new component.AGENTS.md(new, repo root) — instructs AI coding assistants (Claude, Cursor, Copilot) not to use this generator for new components and to route users to the Auro team.Why not archive?
The team has decided not to archive the repo yet, so a README banner +
AGENTS.mdis the deprecation signal. No replacement command is named intentionally — component build/CEM already run through auro-cli, but the scaffold replacement (auro generate) is still in progress and not released, so pointing users at it would be premature.Notes
AURO-GENERATED-CONTENTblock sobuild:docswon't overwrite it.AGENTS.mdlive at repo root, not intemplate/, so they are not copied into scaffolded components.🤖 Generated with Claude Code
