  .option('-i, --install', 'The install option', { default: true })
  .action(async (options) => {
    if (options.install)
      await install()

    const answer = await prompts.select({
      type: 'select',
      message: 'Are you trying to run this command?',
      choices: [
        { title: 'Run the command', value: 'run' },
        { title: 'Do not run the command', value: 'do-not-run' },
      ],
    })

    if (answer === 'run')
      install()
    else if (answer === 'do-not-run')
      log.info('Not running the command')
    else process.exit(ExitCode.InvalidArgument)
  })

async function install() {
  try {
    const spin = spinner('Running...').start()
    setTimeout(() => {
      spin.text = italic('This may take a few moments...')
    }, 5000)
    await spawn('bun install')
    spin.stop()
  }
  catch (error) {
    log.error(error)
  }
}

command.help() // automatically expose a -h and --help flag
command.version(version) // automatically expose a -v and --version flag
