-_CLI for @codemod-utils_
+_CLI to create a codemod project_
+
+
+## Usage
+
+Use `npx` to run `@codemod-utils/cli`. (Alternatively, you can install `@codemod-utils/cli` globally.)
+
+```sh
+npx @codemod-utils/cli --name <your-codemod-name> <additional arguments>
+```
+
+This will create a folder named `<your-codemod-name>`, inside of which you can find the package named `<your-codemod-name>`.
+
+Change the directory, then run these scripts:
+
+```sh
+# Set up the project
+pnpm install
+
+# Create a GitHub repository
+git init
+git add .
+git commit -m "Initial commit"
+git branch -M main
+git remote add origin git@github.com:<your-GitHub-handle>/<your-repo-name>.git
+git push -u origin main
+```
+
+
+### Arguments
+
+You must pass `--name` to name your codemod.
+
+```sh
+npx @codemod-utils/cli --name ember-codemod-v1-to-v2
+```
+
+
+<details>
+<summary>Optional: Add <code>@codemod-utils</code> packages</summary>
+
+By default, `@codemod-utils/cli` installs only [`@codemod-utils/files`](../files/README.md) and [`@codemod-utils/tests`](../tests/README.md).
+
+To add more `@codemod-utils` packages and scaffold files, pass `--addon` and a list of package names.
+
+```sh
+npx @codemod-utils/cli --addon blueprints
+```
+

+
+```sh
+npx @codemod-utils/cli --root=<path/to/your/project>
+```
+
+</details>
+
+
+<details>
+<summary>Optional: Create a JavaScript project</summary>
