Let me guess, it looks at the nearest folder with a package.json file?

Yeah most likely. Not what I want in my case as I'm wanting to create a standalone project in the demo folder, to test the angular lib in the parent.

Yeah it's the package.json, it's the project 'marker'. At the moment this is "working as intended" though...

In the future the init functionality is likely to be removed as a followup to #4007.

Creating an empty package.json fixed it!
