+### In Progress Notice
+This repository is a rewrite of our current Cli that can be found [here](https://github.com/fission-codes/fission/tree/main/fission-cli). The progress we are making toward finishing the rewrite can be seen on [this tracking issue](https://github.com/fission-codes/fission-cli/issues/1). However, our plan is to wrap the existing binary so that the application be used even while the rewrite is still in progress.
+
