+  ...
+}
+```
+
+**Publish as public:**

+```bash
+npx @yourname/clawcloud tiers
+```

+
+## 🚀 Alternative: GitHub Release
+
+### Setup GitHub Repository
+
+```bash
+# Initialize git
+git init
+git add .
+git commit -m "Initial commit: ClawCloud CLI v1.0.0"

+# Then push
+git remote add origin https://github.com/yourusername/clawcloud-cli.git
