Description
User runs openfn init to init a new project
- Creates an openfn.yaml with defaults
- Creates a claude.md file cloned from
https://github.com/OpenFn/project - Creates a gitignore to support our standard patterns (like
tmp, credential file) - Maybe setup git rules for project sync (ie, when merging, never merge stuff in the .project folder)
The simple version of this just does the thing
A more complex version prompts users and asks what they want. Generate claude.md? y/n. If you run it multiple times it'll just ask you for the things that don't exist.
Maybe if there's no connected app project, it can prompt for a uuid or name

Research direction
Start by locating the openfn init CLI entry point and review the expected project artifacts: openfn.yaml, claude.md, the gitignore, and .project rules. Done means the command creates the requested defaults, handles existing files as described, and optionally prompts for the proposed project settings.
