Any workaround for this?

I had the same issue. What I did to get past this, was a manual copy of the template. At this point, the template has been downloaded already when npm init was run. So you can just copy it.

An example using the above error output:
mv /tmp/2122340072f1d-91d055235fe5d/worker-rust -> /home/xxx/project_name

Another thing that is happening when running this command not exactly related to this issue but in the similar domain
npm init cloudflare project_name worker-rust > common worker function
is that it just creates js default template instead of Rust one.

Anyone experiencing this as well ?
