So you mean deprecating the annotation based parameters?

Not sure if I want to deprecate the actual decorators as they are being used actively by old style automation clients. But deprecate the paramsMaker property of CommandHandlerRegistration and GeneratorRegistration etc might be a start.

Yes. We should discourage the annotation style as the newer parameters model is more composable and less magical. It now enforces that parameter definitions match the relevant interface, which eliminates the last reason to use decorators.

Ok agreed, but I'd change the documentation to have the parameterDefinition variables typed, i.e.:

const helloWorldParametersDefinition: ParametersDefinition = {
        name: { description: "name",
            required: true,
            pattern: /.*/ },
        location: {},
    };

That way people have code completion in IDEs.
