Description
With the new autogenerated gems, I notice that they include everything in the packages. I think we should remove docs and specs. It also uses find *, which is bad as it pulls in .gitignored files as well as other ancillary things (like previous gem packages and other cruft).
Additionally, the README is very large - I wonder if there's an openapi setting to remove the docs from the README (especially since a whole separate docs dir is created). If not, maybe we can put in an upstream change for that.

Research direction
Start by locating the autogenerated gem packaging entry point and the use of find *; inspect how the generated README and separate docs directory are produced. Done means packages omit docs, specs, ignored files, previous gem packages and other cruft, with README documentation reduced if an OpenAPI setting supports it.
