How can I run it with --harmony-generators flags?

You'll need to grab nvm: https://github.com/creationix/nvm . Then nvm install v0.11.13, nvm use v0.11.13, then run node --harmony.

I understand the node --harmony flag etc - I'm wondering if it's possible to run directly from the https://github.com/koajs/api-boilerplate/blob/master/bin/api script. There doesn't seem to be a way to pass it the harmony flag.

nope, you have to use something like the "v8-args" module to effectively wrap/proxy the executable. For now I just do node --harmony bin/api, that sort of idea, hopefully in the near future generators will be by default

(we should doc ^ though, it's not clear that's for sure)

Okay no worries, thanks for the heads up.
