Description

Hi everyone,

first of all, thank you for all the great work. Now back to my problem. In my package plop-action-eslint, I try to add tests for the custom type. It works when I cd into the package and run yarn plop but does not when I run yarn plop Template \"Test\". You'll see the screenshots of the issue in my PR https://github.com/natterstefan/plop-action-eslint/pull/1/files here.

What am I missing? You can use my repository to reproduce what I am talking about.

Thanks for your help.

Research direction
Investigate how plop.load registers custom ActionTypes and how bypassing prompts affects them. Check the code path for when arguments are passed directly to plop CLI.
