+# Archived non-workflow files
+
+These files lived in `.github/workflows/` but are **not** valid GitHub Actions
+workflows — they are notes, markdown explainers, and a couple of text files whose
+names looked like workflow files. They were moved here so the actions directory
+contains only real workflow YAML.
+
+| File | Was | Why moved |
+|---|---|---|
+| `ADD-EXAMPLAE-AGENTS.md` | `.github/workflows/ADD EXAMPLAE AGENTS` | Sample `AGENTS.md` content, no extension — not a workflow. |
+| `Auto-Build-SVG.md` | `.github/workflows/Auto-Build-SVG.md` | Workflow-pattern notes in Markdown — not a workflow. |
+| `README-workflows-notes.md` | `.github/workflows/README.md` | Copy-paste instructions text — not a workflow. (The repo root `README.md` is untouched.) |
+| `deploy-production.yml.txt` | `.github/workflows/deploy.yml (Production)` | A workflow draft saved with `(Production)` in the name — invisible to Actions. |
+| `name-Deploy-Static-Content-to-Pages.txt` | `.github/workflows/name Deploy Static Content to Pages.txt` | A workflow draft saved as `.txt` — invisible to Actions. |
+| `staging-workflow-example.md` | `.github/workflows/🧪 Staging Workflow Example` | Example text, emoji name, no extension — not a workflow. |
+| `vercel-deployment.md` | `.github/workflows/vercel-deployment` | Vercel CLI install notes, no extension — not a workflow. |
+
+Nothing was deleted — every file is preserved here verbatim.
