Permission error when creating project from specification
Describe the bug
Creating an empty project works fine with "asyncapi new glee", but if I specify an existing api spec with -f, I get the following error after it prints the api spec and allows me to select servers from it:
Error: Unable to create the project. We tried to access the "/home/xxxxx/code/mqttnew/project" directory but it was not possible due to file access permissions. Please check the write permissions of your current working directory ("/home/xxxxx/code/mqttnew").
There are no actual permissions issues since I am able to run the command in the same folder without -f, without any issues.
How to Reproduce
I would guess that this has to be related to my specific setup. I am running Debian Trixie, NPM 9.2.0 and Node v18.19.0.
I've tried installing asyncapi cli from both the latest .deb-file, as well as building it myself and running ./bin/run. Both gives the same issue.
Just let me know if any additional information is needed.
Expected behavior
The project is created :)

I did some digging and have an update to this. It works if the run-file for the CLI is left in a folder where my user has permissions, but if it's placed in /usr/bin/ or similar it fails with the error above.
@dankar this issue seems to be related to CLI than Glee. @Souvikns can you move this issue to CLI?

Isn't this the expected behavior @dankar, since your user does not have write access so CLI can't create the project?
No, what I mean is where the CLI executable is (asyncapi). I would assume nothing should need to write to the executable file :)
Well, I think by default you don't have write access in usr/bin with rwxr-xr-x. So it should not be able to create glee project there, @dankar is CLI able to create the project without the -f flag in usr/bin?
I am not creating the project in /usr/bin. I am creating the project in my home directory, and I have full access rights there. The difference is just where the "asyncapi" executable is. If it's in /usr/bin I get the error. If I put it somewhere in my home directory, it works.
@dankar can't reproduce this issue. I don't have a Mac. so I am using the AWS ec2 instance. @Souvikns were you able to reproduce it.
Instead, I am getting another issue which is "Unexpected value at position 0"
