This seems like a fundamental Git query accomplished with git clone git@github.com:filename24/filename24.git renamed for example, no?

Yes, that's right, but if you look at the code, you're doing a git clone using the [REPLACE_ME] name in the package.json.

I'm struggling to understand now. Isn't the solution to that to follow the respective repository's instructions?

If you're going to write a template, you're most likely going to write a git clone. But if you're going to do a create-discord-bot, why not build something that installs the module, automatically removes the cloned .git fullder, and automatically does a git init, for example create-discord-bot hellobot --example https://github.com?
