looks like this issue is from a breaking change published in https://github.com/snyk/cli in a minor version. Their issue filing system says to email snyk support, which I've done.

[doug-wade]

In the short term, I've pulled together an example repo for using node's child_process to shell out to the snyk cli: https://github.com/doug-wade/gulp-snyk-client

[androiderik]

Thank you so much! in a short term I'll be using this side method

I got an update from snyk on this one:

Thanks for your patience on this issue. After doing some initial research on this and gathering logs and evidence on our side, it seems like we're going to need to escalate this to our engineering team. We have moved this ticket over to their queue and have prioritized it accordingly.

Although timeframes for this kind of issue can vary, generally these kind of problems do take a bit longer to solve due to the complexity and need for deeper analysis. It's still possible that this is a bug, an unsupported feature or some kind of configuration issue in the environment - we're not ruling anything out at this stage.

What we will do is keep you posted with updates as we learn more and get closer to solve the problem. If at any time you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to reach out and let us know.

Snyk team said this:

As for programmatic access to the Snyk CLI, this is not something that is supported, although not impossible as you've accomplished through the gulp-snyk package! However, due to the lack of support, it's reasonable to expect that internal implementation details like those may change over time.

I'm not gonna keep up with this, so I'm going to deprecate the package and archive the repo
