# Initialize the CLI

Now that the `contracts` subdirectory has been initialized, you should now initialize the `cli` subdirectory that will be used to interact with the deployed contracts.

1. **Navigate to the CLI subdirectory:**

```bash
# Assuming you are currently in the contracts directory
cd ../cli
```

2. **Initialize a new bun project**

```bash
bun init -y
```

3. Now, create an `src/` folder and move `index.ts` there.

```bash
mkdir -p src && mv index.ts src/
```

4. Now, edit `package.json` to be the following:

```json
{
  "name": "clown-beatdown-cli",
  "license": "MIT License",
  "type": "module",
  "scripts": {
    "dev": "bun run src/index.ts"
  },
  "dependencies": {
    "dotenv": "^16.4.7",
    "seismic-viem": "1.1.1",
    "viem": "^2.22.3"
  },
  "devDependencies": {
    "@types/node": "^22.7.6",
    "typescript": "^5.6.3"
  }
}
```

5. Edit `.gitignore` to be:

```gitignore
node_modules
```

Your environment is now set!
