-## CLI

-```
-$ supports-color --help
+- `.level = 1` and `.hasBasic = true`: Basic color support (16 colors)
+- `.level = 2` and `.has256 = true`: 256 color support
+- `.level = 3` and `.has16m = true`: 16 million (truecolor) support
- Usage
- supports-color
- Exits with code 0 if color is supported and 1 if not
-```
+## Info
+
+It obeys the `--color` and `--no-color` CLI flags.
+
+For situations where using `--color` is not possible, add an environment variable `FORCE_COLOR` with any value to force color. Trumps `--no-color`.
+
+Explicit 256/truecolor mode can be enabled using the `--color=256` and `--color=16m` flags, respectively.
