Line 1557 of runProcessor:

if (!isset($this->error)) $this->request->loadErrorHandler();

If $modx->request is not set, MODX dies either silently or with a cryptic message in modParser, so a CLI script that tries to use a processor will fail unless the author knows enough to call $modx->getRequest() after initializing MODX.

Some possible fixes:

• Put getRequest() in $modx->initialize()
• Use getRequest() instead of $modx->request in runProcessor();
• Die with a clear error message if $modx->request is not set in runProcessor()
