Cook pasta in well salted boiling water according to package directions until al dente. Taste; it should be tender but still have a bit of a bite.
While pasta is cooking, whisk together the sauce. Taste to adjust the ingredients. If wanting more spice, add more chili oil.
Drain pasta, reserving 1 c. cooking water. Return drained pasta to the hot pot; toss with peanut sauce. Add a bit of cooking water until the desired sauce creaminess is achieved. Add cilantro and green onions; toss.
Serve hot, at room temperature or cold, topped with chili flakes and peanuts, if desired.
