Thanks to the work by piyushk in https://github.com/Chilipp/autodocsumm/issues/19, autodocsumm now has a `:autosummary-no-nesting:` option to disable the generation of autosummary tables for the classes in a module.
As such,
.. automodule:: module
:autosummary:
:members:
:autosummary-no-nesting:
will generate an autosummary table for the specified `module`, but not for the members (i.e. classes) in the module.
See the [docs for an example](https://autodocsumm.readthedocs.io/en/latest/examples.html#generating-a-summary-table-for-the-module-without-nesting).
