+# Deprecation Notice
+
+## What is deprecated
+
+The `make87` Python SDK is deprecated. This SDK was designed to support the legacy make87 "application SDK integration" workflow for building applications on the make87 platform.
+
+## What to use instead
+
+make87 has pivoted to a **CLI/agent-based device management workflow**. The SDK integration approach is no longer supported.
+
+## Maintenance stance
+
+- **Status:** Deprecated / Unmaintained
+- **Updates:** No further updates, bug fixes, or security patches will be released
+- **Support:** No support is provided for this package
+
+## Migration guidance
+
+1. **Pin your dependency:** If you must continue using this SDK temporarily, pin to a specific version in your requirements
+2. **Plan migration:** Begin planning your migration away from this SDK
+3. **Adopt CLI/agent workflow:** Transition to make87's CLI/agent-based device management approach
+
+## Timeline
+
+This package will remain available on PyPI for historical purposes but will receive no further development.
