History is currently saved to $HOME/.history.
However, there is a specification which should be payed attention to.

https://specifications.freedesktop.org/basedir-spec/basedir-spec-latest.html

I would say to save it to $XDG_CACHE_HOME/create-node-cli and only fallback if $XDG_CACHE_HOME is not set.
The fallback should be rather $HOME/.cache than $HOME/.history.

Where does history come from? Is that some specification I don't know about?
