-The source code from this repo is generated using [OpenAPI generator][1] and the Open API specification for the Tremendous API, available to Tremendous engineers.
+The source code from this repo is generated using [OpenAPI generator][1] and the Open API specification for the Tremendous API. The `.ts` files can be re-generated and compiled with the following commands:
 
 ```console
-# generate a fresh Open API spec file
-cd core && bin/openapi-bundle
-
-# generate new `.ts` files and compile them into `./dist`
-cd tremendous-node-spike && bin/generate [PATH TO YML] && npm run build
+bin/generate && npm run build
 ```
 
+After that, please review the changes to double check that the changes to the API spec were
+generated correctly. Please open a Pull Request with the file changes and wait for the test pipeline
+before merging it to master.

 ## Step 2 - Update the version on `package.json`
 
-Bump the version on `package.json` manually following [Semantic Versioning][2] practices - most changes here should be backwards compatible and deserve a MINOR version update
