npx xcratch-register --link -C --id=extensionID --gui="../scratch-gui"

This command accepts these command-line arguments.

--base : base code to register in (optional, options: "LLK")
--link : use symbolic link instead of copy sources
--id : extensionID of this extension
--dir : directory name of the extension will be copied (optional, default: extensionID)
--gui : location of scratch-gui from current dir (optional, default: "../scratch-gui")
--vm : location of scratch-vm form current dir (optional, default: "gui/node_modules/scratch-vm")
--url : URL to get this module as a loadable extension for Xcratch (optional)
-C : make the extension as a member of core-extensions

After the extension is registered, start dev-server in scratch-gui.
