Btw I wonder what's the case that this autoInit failed to work for you?

It worked for me, I just didn't find it in the documentation.

I moved my eslint.config.js to .config/eslint.js and use that as in eslint --cache --config .config/eslint.js. Is there another way to set the configuration so that this module detects the different path too?

Oh interesting. I think we could also check that file as well for the feature
