rawtherapee-cli: batch mode conversion of raw image to jpg skips auto level

[d-e-e-p]

When rawtherapee-cli processes raw file inputs, there seems to be no way to get it to activate some operations like auto-level. Only workaround to order operations seems to be having temporary non-raw files...Eg,

 #** auto level doesn't work**
rawtherapee-cli -q -Y -o img.jpg -p raw.pp3  -p level.pp3  -c img.dng
Settings directory (rtdir) = /home/user/.config/RawTherapee
RawTherapee, version 5.8-394-g22eee97, command line.
Input: dng/img0000000.dng Output: 8-bit integer.
  Merging procparams #0
  Merging procparams #1

#** auto level works!**
rawtherapee-cli -q -Y -o tmp.jpg -p raw.pp3 -p level.pp3  -c img.dng
rawtherapee-cli -q -Y -o img.jpg -p raw.pp3  -p level.pp3  -c tmp.dng

level.pp3 and raw.pp3 profiles looks like

[Version]
AppVersion=5.8-394-g22eee97
Version=347

[Exposure]
Auto=true
Clip=0.02

[Version]
AppVersion=5.8-394-g22eee97

[RAW Bayer]

Resulting jpg has auto levels applied. Can you provide a raw file to reproduce?
